I know Hot Wheels is big 'round these parts but I felt like sharing some other diecasts I have collected over my years. Muscle Machines!
Johnny Lightening!
And a Monster Garage!

Those are some wild looking cars. Most of them look inspired by Fast and Furious Haha.

Fun Fact: The original F&F came out when those cars started coming out.

I used to have a Muscle Machines MR2, but mine was a silver 1:24 scale one...aka, one of the ones with two sets of wheels.

Now we know, the ricer does not derive from Fast and Furious, but Muscle Machines!

I'm loving these new AutoWorld diecasts. Evidently are from the people who were responsible for the last good years of Johnny Lightning, though I never really liked JL so I wouldn't know.

I've got the Endless Supra in 1/24 and 1/64 scale. The difference in detail between their 1/64 and 24 scales is amazing. They looks so similar.

How much do those AWs run? I don't think I've seen them in stores.

Mmm, I think around $3.99 for the mainline ones, perhaps $2.99. They never seem to be clearly labeled in stores, they're just trown into the section where non-Mattel diecasts go. The nicer ones like that Boss 302 are over $5.
These Greenlight Motor World cars aren't terrible either. This Dart in particular has been added to my must have list. I may Ebay it tonight actually.

Hmm I'm gonna have to keep my eye out. They look neat, and that Dart looks superb. I assume it's not 1/64 scale, looks much bigger.

They claim it's 1:64. The wheels are iffy, the tires specifically kinda look like shit (far too big) but this will likely be my only chance to get my Dart in diecast form. I know I'll never fins another one in the correct color. I do hope HW makes a PF Dart casting though, even if it end up being the SRT rally car version.
I'm also looking into these right now. It seems that the grey ones are cheaper than the rest by about $100, but I need a Competition Orange Mach 1 and there are limited Mach 1 diecasts as it is. This is another one I'd buy a ton of if Hot Wheels made it.
Mmm, dat hood cutout.
