Any fellow Hotwheels collectors on this forum? I have been collecting for around a year now. Recently had to give loads to my daughter and limit my collection to cars based on real examples as I was nearing 200 cars and was running low on space.
They are good fun to collect, thousands of different examples and secret treasure hunt and super treasure hunt cars every year and only £1-1.50 in the UK.
Anyway recently I stumbled upon custom Hotwheels and was blown away by some of the work that people put into these 1:64 scale cars. New paint, interiors, plumbing etc and I thought it was fiddly doing it on a 1/8 McLaren Blink

Those are pretty cool.I guess you need a steady hand and good eyesight to customize these cars.
As a kid I lived near a guy that had a whole house full of Hotwheels cars.Hundreds of them on table throughout his house.You could look, but he got pretty mad if you tried to pick one of them up.
