The good ol' days of Hot Wheels Fantasy castings

I need some advice. This was a recent whatnot score, and other than some gummy residue on the hood and a little bit of paint on the plastic lights above the cab, it's looks like a blister pull. Any advice on removing the stuff on the hood without damaging the paint? Ill probably test on a beater.

Hot Wheels that aren't Hot Wheels

Part of my collection of Grand Prix cars. The rest is a Lotus Turbine bow that ill post in the next day or so.

My humble little collection of LEO Hot Wheels.

Currently my goal with Crack-ups is to get an example of each casting, then I will work on variations. Of course I won't turn down a good deal on a variation, but, ya know. Lol

Definitely on the hunt for a better example, but happy to have it in the collection nonetheless!¹

Originally released for the Demolition man series. The teal variation is the second release and was a blue card car. This is the only one I have but being a variation collector, theres ALOT of them to track down.

I really enjoy the early color changer stuff. They can be tough to get minty versions. I really want to add a Hot Bird, Turbo Mustang, 82 Supra and the Front Runnin Fairmont to the collection.

Head over to r/RedlineHotwheels to checkout where it all began!!!

An all time favorite

One of the few pieces I haven't opened, but I still might!

One of my favorite castings and by far my favorite Porsche castings.
