Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (Motorcycles with Riders)

I passed up on this motorcycle casting originally but I’m glad I was able to find it once again because it’s pretty awesome! It kind of has a bonus too, usually there is one rider per motorcycle but this one has a rider and a puppy, pretty cool! And on top of that, it’s all metal making it nice and heavy!

Bubble Gunner (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

Talk about an oldie! Here is the Hot Wheels Bubble Gunner from the long awaited Heritage Series! The original casting was released way back in 1979 and it lived on to 1983. However, after it was discontinued it was once again brought back to life in 2011 and this is the third release since then. As for this version, it is metal on metal and it features Real Riders tires, it can’t get much better than that!

Altered Ego (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

This is a relativity new model, the Hot Wheels Altered Ego was just released in 2012 and once again in 2014, both times in the mainline. As for its third release, it gets to be in the all new Heritage Series with Real Riders tires! And of course, it’s metal on metal too which only makes it sweeter!

Datsun 240Z (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

The Hot Wheels Datsun 240Z is one popular casting among collectors. This is definitely no exception, collectors will go crazy over this bright red release! This one is from the Real Riders portion of the all new Heritage Series meaning it features rubber tires. It’s also metal on metal making it nice and heavy!

Datsun Bluebird 510 (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

The Hot Wheels Datsun Bluebird 510 is a casting nearly all collectors go nuts over. With this Datsun being from the all new Heritage Series, this Datsun Bluebird couldn’t be any more sought after! It of course features Real Riders tires and it’s metal on metal. The white paint job along with red rims makes for an excellent presentation too!

Hare Splitter (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

The Hot Wheels Hare Splitter was originally from 1979 but discontinued soon after. However, it was retooled in 2012 and now it’s back once again for 2015 in the all new Heritage Series! This version features an all metal body and base along with Real Riders tires! It’s also green with green Tampos, making it really green, which looks fantastic. I’m a fan for sure!

Custom Chevy Greenbrier Sports Wagon (Heritage Series – Real Riders)

I have never seen or heard of this car at all until I saw it in the all new Heritage Series. So let’s introduce it, here is the all new Hot Wheels Custom Chevy Greenbrier Sports Wagon! A new model for 2015, and it looks really good! Check out its sparkly blue paint along with its red trim. It even has a couple of surfboards on top, how gnarly! In addition to its all metal body, metal base, and Real Riders tires, it has a huge Zamac engine mounted on the rear, how super cool!

Lamborghini Aventador J (2013 Walmart Exclusive Zamac #17 – New for 2013)

It’s time for a bare metal super car, the Lamborghini Aventador J! This thing is pretty sweet, it only has the bare minimum as far as tampos go. They include the detailed headlights, a hood emblem, and side vents. Besides that, it’s all open space leaving nothing but the metal to see, which looks awesome!

’68 Shelby GT500 (2013 Walmart Exclusive Zamac #11 – New for 2013)

This casting was new for 2013 and it’s a Zamac, it’s the 1968 Shelby GT500! Hot Wheels kept it fairly simple, the red hood stripes are a nice touch though. Overall, it’s an excellent looking car!

’71 Hemi ‘Cuda (2013 Walmart Exclusive Zamac #3)

Here’s a good ol’ classic muscle car from the 70’s, the 1971 Plymouth Barracuda! Nothing too much going on with it but the Zamac makes it stand out from the rest!
