Latest Buys

Hey there fellow bloggers, I finally got this exclusive Kmart variant of Hotwheels 2010 Camaro SS. The colour is stunning satin blue, and I really like it. And upon opening my parcel, I found out that one of them has an error. Obviously a tampo misalignment there, due to low quality control from Hotwheels. But some collectors can agree that this is what makes HW so fun to collect. Here's photos of the must-get variant!

Normal one on the left, error car on the right.

For comparison:




Also, KK finally received new waves for Hotwheels and Matchbox again last week. Its the silver Aventador wave (E07) for HW and E07/E08 for MBX. KK Toys had a fair pick of the new cars.


But no sign of the orange Evo X or blue Cadillac Cien! I wonder were it could have gotten to..

For Matchbox, this wave isn't that interesting, but the Baja Bullet and Triton/L200 are my favourite castings, so I decided to get one each. Along with this MBX wave is the white Dodge Viper with the palm tree tampo, and the white-tyred red Corvette ZR1.

For sure, the Lamborghini Aventador is one of the most hot and popular castings in this G case. Thankfully, Hotwheels made plenty so all collectors had their chance to grab the silver variant. Unlike the more hard to find orange variant, which came in the D44 wave. I heard that some parts of the Klang Valley did not get this wave. I was lucky to stumble on one few months back! :)

In each box of 72 cars, one might be able to find 3-4 silver Aventadors. I found 3 in two seperate places. So don't worry, hopefully there will be many more silver Aventador on the way to KK.

^ A casting too good to resist!!
