Hot Wheels Diecast Toy Cars
Of all the toy makers out there, none is more of a synonym for “diecast” than is Hot Wheels. In fact, we here at Diecast Toy Cars know that How Wheels toy cars are probably what made the word “diecast” a household word. Until Hot Wheels came along in 1968, nobody used the term “diecast” on a daily basis. Now it’s on the lips of millions of children worldwide as Hot Wheels diecast cars sell everywhere and are as popular as ever.
Made by Mattel, Hot Wheels cars were originally a line to directly compete with Matchbox, owned by Tyco until 1996 when Mattel purchased the rights to the name and designs. Now the two lines of competing diecast toy cars are instead working together.
The gambit of Hot Wheels cars runs pretty wide, starting with the original 1:64 scale diecasts we all know and love (and their bonus track sets to run them on). The larger 1:43 Hot Wheels toy cars are purely for collectors to display, really, being highly detailed and popularizing many real-to-life street models we all love.
Of course, the most popular and well-known (and collectible) of the Hot Wheels diecast cars are the limited series of various custom hot rods and muscle cars that have been made since the company’s inception. Not surprisingly, over 10,000 models of various types of Hot Wheels toy cars have been made since 1968 and the numbers keep growing as popularity has not decreased.
Every boy has (or used to have, before he “grew up”) had favorite Hot Wheels cars that he can still name, even 20 years later. What was yours?
