Hot Wheels '16 Bugatti Chiron Factory Fresh Series 7/10 2020 short card

Product Information

It’s a dumb phrase, usually reserved for the antics of a Kardashian, but it happened in our world last week.

The Hot Wheels has a very interesting history, going from pegwarmer to must-have only after the casting was retired a few years ago. Sits too high, proportions are off but the biggest issue is that the wheels sit way inside the well that it looks like a kit-car. They experimented with ways to make it two-tone, but that couldn’t be done in basic, but maybe we will see a two-tone version in premium some day. But we are going to do full in-depth comparison of the Chiron, produced by Hot Wheels in 2019 and releasing just now in the N Case, with the Veyron, which was introduced in 2004 and retired 6 years later.I think a lot of collectors seem to forget that hotwheels basic models are mostly children’s toys meant for use with paysets and/or tracks. Modelmatic sells a range of die-cast vehicles and accessories at 1:64 (or as close as possible) scale. I have a bridge that has about 40 of the suspensions, and goes around 4 walls by gravity and into my triple loop power booster toy.

Hey, don’t get me wrong, it’s still a fantastic piece but could be even more fantastic with a little more detailing. There was an attempt about a year or two ago to clean it (and the Viper RT/10) up by hardening some body lines and edges, and exaggerated the definition of some of the features, but it still falls short of the level of detail in say, this new Chiron. Sure, two-tone would have been nice, as would headlights and tail lights, but this is a basic model and we all know what that means. He said it took a long time to finally get it to a point they were happy with, as it wasn’t easy to shrink to 1/64.

It just isn’t cool to see something unveiled in an incomplete or incorrect form, after all that work. I will definitely be on the hunt for this one and I can’t wait to add this one to my hotwheels collection. Really pumped for this and excited to see what’s to come from this Hot Wheels and Bugatti partnership. Add in super-seek aero styling and you've got a Bugatti so fast, the factory limited its top speed to 261 mph.It’s going to be a Christmas gift,so they haven’t seen them yet,but know how much they’re going to love it! Learning that the rear is molded to the window piece makes sense they can’t detail over plastic but the headlights are molded to the body. I always wonder what it is like to be a Hot Wheels designer, and to watch the reactions from collectors when something you have worked on for so long has been unleashed to the public. Which is why the proportions on some licence cars are sometimes skewed so that it can fit inside a garage set or make the car easy play with.
