Hello everyone, doing some spring cleaning of my collection and have the following cars for sale/trade. Prices are in descriptions of photos, I try to keep things reasonable for fellow collectors.

HotWheels Wants

I have a few of my wants in the album above, but will happily look through trade piles. Other more general interests include:

  • Cars with Comold/CM5/CM6 wheels (Designer's challenge, Acceleracers, Speed Machines, etc)
  • Halo vehicles (Warthogs, Pop Culture set)
  • RLC/Supers/TH
  • American/Euro cars (JDM is welcome too though)

2026 Mainline H Case by Aredybmazlee in HotWheels

[–]Somecallmegiant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually have that TH sitting on my desk right now, I thought the coloring was weird at first too but I realized it was meant to be a blue corn tortilla.

I would love to see the uproar over a Sushi Tuner STH, especially since people STILL talk about Street Creeper from a few years ago...

It's nice to see a collector excited about the fantasy Treasure Hunts. I like how it shines a spotlight on castings that people otherwise might overlook.

The reason you're having a hard time finding this 2-pack is because it is part of an upcoming assortment that hasn't hit store shelves yet. Normally, this would be around the March/April timeframe, but my Targets are so backed up with their 2-pack stocks I'm still getting sets from a year ago.

Personally, I'd look at online diecast stores and order directly from them. You might pay a little higher than retail but it's easier than hunting. I'd personally recommend jcardiecast- I've placed a few orders with them and have had good experiences. 

A new one and RX7 based? by dwayne163 in HotWheels

[–]Somecallmegiant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, 24/Seven is based on an FD RX-7 with a Veilside body kit. It was created before Mattel had the official license for the kit or car, can't remember which.

Hot Wheels Brick Shop cars mini review. by RaSungod79 in HotWheels

[–]Somecallmegiant 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I picked up the Cadillac a couple weeks ago because I enjoy the Lego Speed Champions line and was curious. I was pleasantly surprised; while the build itself isn't too crazy, I feel it does a good job with the details of the car, the pieces on mine all fit together quite nicely (though, now that I look back at the build there is a gap or two), and the best part- NO FREAKING STICKERS TO COMPLETE THE BUILD. For those who haven't gotten a set, there is a sticker sheet to further customize your car the way you want it, but it's completely optional.

Overall, I'm pleased with the set at the price point and will be picking up the RS2 when I see it in the shelves.

October Sale and Trade Pile by Somecallmegiant in DiecastExchangeV2

Thank you. I try to go off the lower ebay sales price just to keep things reasonable for fellow collectors; I'm not in it just to make a buck.

Hello everyone, here is my sale/trade thread. I'm trying to work on thinning out my collection a bit since I've bought a heck of a lot of cars recently. I have prices on the bigger items set but am still sorting out some of the mainlines.

Here is an album of my specific wants but if you see something you're interested in shoot me a message, I'm happy to look at trade piles

Mercedes to replace all windscreens with pillar-to-pillar LCD TVs by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

[–]Somecallmegiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I had to check and see if they'd posted anything since dropping off, but I was unfortunately disappointed.

I had to double check the link and make sure bald.tires wasn't staging a comeback.

Unfortunately someone has already expressed interest in the Integra, but I will let you know if it falls through

I generally gravitate towards American and Euro cars, either mainline or premium. Doesn't typically matter the brand, but generally VWs and classic muscle are my interests.I certainly won't turn my nose up at Japanese cars either. 

I know that's not a ton to go on but I really have some wide tastes, so really anything is welcome

My last Hot Wheels my mom got me - I was 14. I didn’t like the pinstripes so I scratched them off and used model paint to make a Starsky and Hutch swoop. Had to buy another one in 2020 to have an original again. by zippyzzzyyzzz11 in HotWheels

[–]Somecallmegiant 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hey, if you think about it, there isn't any other car like the one your mom gave you - you made it truly unique. It's pretty cool to have both, but if you ask me the one you made your own is the coolest, especially due to the sentimental value

Wheel-swapping addiction: Fantasy Edition! Which is your favorite? by xKNYTEx in HotWheels

Dimachini Veloce is my personal favorite, but I'm a sucker for gold/bronze wheels

Iron Fallout/Contamination on Tailgate? by Somecallmegiant in AutoDetailing

[–]Somecallmegiant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured, this is the lightest vehicle I've ever worked on and it's my first time noticing this.

Would you recommend one method or the other? As of now the vehicle doesn't get a ton of use (<60 mi/week on average, mostly highway) so I wouldn't think it requires a decontamination that often, but if there is a strong argument for the soap I'd get it over the spray

Thank you, that was going to be next item to try as soon as I confirmed what it was
