I have this strange hobby of collecting Hotwheels and Matchbox cars. I search evrywhere I go to get everysingle on tha is made. For instance today I had to go to Autozone because my beated had a burnt out headlight. So I grab my light and at the counter I see a few Hotwheels so I check them out. Well I found a new one. As you all probably remeber Hotwheels made a cool Civic SI and now they made the Ford Focus of Shawn Carlson. You know the Meguiers one. Its black and yellow. Anyway I got all exited and I thought I would tell you all about it since I rarly get a chance to come in this forum.

The bigger ones are cool too. I have a bunch of them. The best ones IMO are Maisto and BDurango. Check out KB toys they have a ton of them.

I only buy the hooked up ones lol. I have 4 right now, a 2 gen mitsubishi eclipse (shogun), a new style celica, the meguiars focus,and a nissan skyline. They're pretty tight, i'm not really into any other plain hot wheels. I'm tryin to find the civic, and they're coming out wit a kitted newer cougar, and a few others.

i'm a Hotwheels geek too, but i only buy the rare ones specially the treasure hunts which is so ****in' hard to find. i have the Skyline, the Civic Si, Meguiar's Focus, the yellow Rod Millen Celica, and the Honda Spocket concept car, the Sho-Stopper which looks like a kitted-Integra. and FYI, on the 'bigger size' Hotwheels, not only did they came with out the Civic Si, they also have the Wings West Focus which is orange with black graphics!:cool:

I never really collected them. I always bought them back in the day only to destroy them while playing. I wish I would have kept them cause they could be worth some money if still in packages.

i hear ya, what i was trying to get across though is that even Hotwheels have finally taken notice of this sport compact/import car explosion with the release of the Civic and Focus toys when for years they have been producing model cars of popular V8 muscles and mini-trucks and even lowriders.
