Long
Version - I was 10 years old when
Hot Wheels
were introduced. My neighbor Jay had every one that came out
but I had only 6 models. Long ago I set out to even that
score.
In 1989 I discovered a local collectible toy store that was buying
and selling original Redline Hot
Wheels. I immediately became hooked on them.
It is impossible to ever have all combination of each model in every
color and in the best condition even if you concentrate only the first 5
years and the first 119 models.
Every kid had Hot Wheels and with the carry cases that they sold at
the same time, Hot Wheels became prized possessions that were saved
for many years. In the 80's and early 90's prior to the
internet and eBay it was common to run a local ad and come up with a
nice collection on a regular basis. Nowadays it is much more
competitive and the number of un-touched collections is much
smaller.
If you still have your childhood
collection or know someone who does please contact me right away.
I pay fair prices for models in nice condition. If you have
them in their original "blisterpacks" that is even better.
Priority attention paid to collection that include the first year of
Hot Wheels which is 1968. These cars have 1967 stamped on the
base as that is when they copyrighted the original designs.
Remember the year on a Hot Wheels car is not the year it was produced.
