@@geebert23 hm, I think so, I saw some loose hot wheels or carded wheels in an online shop called shopee, they have the official mall or just resellers, where they have transport teams, premiums, and sometimes car culture, they also have mainlines
Truueee brooo, like mainline were made in our country Malaysia at pineng yet somehow the price are double, it's not like they need to ship it across the sea or whatsoever😭and the demand is also high right now not like nobody want to bought it at all😭
Starting this year and the last, I noticed that hotwheels has up'ed the prices of hotwheels in the states. I got a couple collector friends over there told me that they are now seeing hotwheels being sold at a minimum of $1.09, some even at $1.49! The age of hotwheels selling a fixed dollar car is no more on retails over there sadly. Inflation has taken a huge toll all over the world especially this past few years.
For us in Latvia, It always was about 1.95 EUR. Now its went up, usually 3 Hotwheels cars would be 5.80 EUR, now recently it was 6.50! The price increase is really hard for us euro collectors having to spend x2 or more than US collectors..
Another reason as to why hotwheels is $1 usd is that most hotwheels cars are imported back to America where they're shipped off to Malaysia, Australia etc. Cause the usa is where the cars are defultly shipped off to means theres generally surplus cars, which also means the pegs are normally full, and in Australia supermarkets have to wait for a new case of cars to come in.
I've recently been in Thailand after 4 years and the price of Hot Wheels and Matchbox, even the premium ones are still as I remembered it's quite amazing. Also there's a permanent 15% off and buy 3, get one for free special there so that's quite good. It isn't 1$, but around 2 which is still better than Switzerland where they slowly creep to 3.5$. One more reason I go to Germany for hunting
Some stores here in Belgium ask 3 euro’s for one single mainline car. So sad. Luckily we have a few stores where we can find them for 1-2 euro’s. But they don’t have a lot most of the times.
Only a few Walmarts here in the US have them for a dollar still. DollarGeneral and DollarTree charge $1.33 now after taxes and most Walmarts are now selling them for $1.16… Soon they won’t be a dollar anywhere! And yeah hotwheels definitely go through a crazy process to still be so damn cheap!
Yep. I’m in California and travel around the state for work. This last month I’ve seen them go up from 1.09 to currently 1.29 at all Walmarts and the two Targets I’ve found them at 1.50.
Hot wheels in usa - remains 1 dollar since 1986 and even today in 2022 Meanwhile collectors in India - are they even available in India... ( Because sadly they aren't)
In the USA, it also matter what store you buy your HWs from. If you buy from Walmart or Target of course the price is $1.00. But if you buy from other stores in could be $1.50. Which I guess is still better than $5.00 for a Mainline HW. Cheers from America.
I am new to collecting cars and found your video most informative. Thanks so much. By the way I've been to Singapore twice...I absolutely love the place.
In Poland from what i remember they were always 1.49$ or more. But lately from nowhere appeared one shop that sells them for 1$ and they are always first with new cases.
- Henry :D, nothing wrong with that bro. Some of them are pretty cool. My favorite fantasy castings are the Carbonator, Tooligan, Coupe Clip and most of the trucks used in the transporter sets are fantasy castings too & most of those are pretty nice
its getting worse in countries where there is no Mattel branch. They keep increasing the FOB/supply cost. Currently paying roughly 3 dollars for a mainline in Korea.
I am older and can verify that the price in the early 70s was indeed $1. Of course, they had moving parts and all metal back then. I'm not sure that the licensing is so cost restrictive that they'd still make them at a loss. Even with the fantasy castings offsetting the costs. Perhaps less profits, but it seems bad business to make products to lose money. Although the video game consoles often make little profit, but gain big on the accessories and games. So Mattel pushes racetracks, premium castings, and other related products to keep the company profitable.
In the UK mainlines hover around the £2 mark. Sterling Vs Dollar is the lowest it's been for decades at the moment (it's nearly halved from where it was in 2006, so the USA isn't suffering like we are at the moment), but that's still about $2.40, more than double what the USA pays...they come from the same factory in Malaysia, so why are we paying so much more? Maybe they need to do "European" master cases...no fantasy and metal bases, as it appears we're paying plenty for them...
🎙️Yo Drifter When chasing Camaros and Mustang in my earlier years they had opening hoods,very few you can find in Hws now Mbx has come back with moviable parts. We would prefer metal bases but you would have to search for them. Well fantasy is a part of collecting it's really up to the collector 🤠🇧🇸

Thanks for this, really interesting and frustrating too. Hot Wheels cost £2 in Britain in most supermarkets with £1.50 being the cheapest possible. They used to be £1 quite a few years ago when the days were good. Short cards here too is another downside.
In Germany there are 1 Euro shops, there you'll get Mainlines for 1 Euro, but they are always in one or two trays. Cuttings, damaged edges are usual. Sometimes you go lucky. In supermarkets and discounters the prices are about 2-2,50 for Mainlines and premiums are 8-15 Euro. In drug stores you'll get mainlines for about 1,80-2,50 Euro. Always more expensive than asian or american prices.
GBP - £2 for mainlines now, £1.50 some places and sometimes a 3 for 2 where they are £2. If you can find premiums they are around £7 and sometimes there’s a 3 for 2 on those. Team Transport and many other lines never make it here and MB is sold in approximately 2 stores in a 40 miles radius near me.
Here in Bulgaria,hotwheels mainlines are 4 BGN which is 2 dollars,i am a new collector,now i have 43 cars in my collection and they are loose,i have one regular treasure hunt
In my country (Bulgaria/Europe) hot wheels is like 2,50 lv (1,28$) and that's the cheapest. In some stores hot wheels is like 3,50 lv (1,80$) and some are 5,00 lv (2,57$) this is ridiculous.
Also they slowly designed the car in a way they showed the plastic window parts more so they could also reduced the metal material used in the body part. But sometimes they look cool, like the addition of sunroof or using the plastic as the frontlight instead painted in the body part
This is definitely another thing why the US has an advantage in these things together with those store exclusives. As a collector from europe, I have to say that depending on which store you go to, the prices can vary so much. Some stores can have them for just 1€ while the other can have some that cost up to 4€ and from exploring around, the price range is definitely moving in betwen 1-4€ for a mainline casting. Nobody goes up to 5€ since that would already be in the price range of the series sets. And recently, there was some inflation of price which made mainlines and premiums much more expensive in larger quantities
That's soo good in India if u want good car like buggati,rare cars or Lamborghini it's price like 2000 to 3000 if buy it in local shops it's 100 only India rupees
I get it. Your right. Probably I would say 20 cents to make a hot wheel maybe less. I worked in the manufacturing sector. They also have to pay advertising, card art, wages,shipping, testing the product, Building rentals, lawyers fees an on and on. So to manufacture this product has to be low. They have to pay for everything else. Having said that I would say by the time that hot wheel hits the store. They are getting close to a dollar a piece maybe just a little less 80 cents. In that range. Just an educated guess. The store hikes it up for there profit but also they have losses of damaged cards and theft to pay for.
I saw hot wheels at Walmart yesterday and there were a bunch for $1 each, so I went on ebay thinking they would be cheaper but people are selling them for around $10 each once you add shipping. Why is this happening? And why is this the norm?
If there's one good thing about the price increase in mainlines, at least in Fred Meyer, where they're now 1.25, I can put my quarters and coins to use again.
damn i miss being a kid, I live in Finland and there used to be cheap hotwheels cars in every store and they would have alot of options to pick from and it was amazing, now i cannot find them at any store and theyre 3 euros at the cheapest
I think they should have kept the metal bases because it will make them more sales, yea it will cost more money but you will get much for sales. And licensed cars will get them more sales too. Some fantasy cars look nice but others just look like they put a hot wheels car in a blender with Lego bricks. So that’s my recommendation for Mattel.
- I'm in the US, NY actually. The day of $1 Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars is over unfortunately. Target & Walmart were the only places that I knew of that had them at or slightly below $1( before tax ). Target was $0.99 & Walmart was $0.94. Yesterday on my Target run, I was shocked to see the price had changed. Hot Wheels now $1.19 & Matchbox $1.29 before tax . I hit 3 different Targets between home & work and they were all the same. The prices have gone up here after so many years, but I think it's still less than most other regions. I don't have a Walmart near me so I'm not sure if the price has changed there too.
well they still using some metal base on mainline car such as The 2 Jet Z got metal body and metal base...idk why they do it on fantasy kind of car (well not really) but you get it...they just lazy enough to gime some special treatment to some mainline car,if you guys remember hotwheels release first baby blue lbwk r35 with rear tail light detail but in 2022 they release again in dark blue/purple with no rear detail!! i mean why!!
I remembered but that was way long ago ofcourse price inflation happens when hotwheels cars sell for just 70 Philippine pesos (2009 - 2012?? ish) and now one cost about 120 each. MIssed buying one of those at that SRP mark.
1 hot wheels car costs likely 3 dollars in Turkey and i think its so expensive because getting 3 dollars in Turkey is harder than getting 3 dollars in USA
back in 2012 in vietnam Hotwheels only 23.000vnd ( 1usd now, 1.25usd back then) but since 2017 ( i guess) is up to 69.000vnd = about 3usd In japan is 299yen = 2.21 usd
The UK is actually stupid with hotwheels prices: The cheapest I can find one is £1.50 ($1.62) The normal prices are from £2 ($2.16) to £3 ($3.24) And I find a 5 pack for £9.45!!!! ($10.20) Wich is dumb because I find 10 packs for £10 ($10.79) So as you can see it's probably the shop bieng greedy or Mattel bieng greedy.
No longer a dollar buddy. now up to $1.25 Over here where I live up from 26 pesos to sometimes 49 pesos. That's over 2 dollars a car. The shipping and handeling is gonna kill the hobby. Even on Ebay the S?H is too too much. The govs need to fix the S/H issues and put a lock on how much countries can charge for exports. Up to a year ago I was still buying two of ever car. Not anymore. Now I choose my top 10 from a case to buy and only 2-4 doubles. I'm motly interested in older cars from 2000-early 2010s. about 1-2 dollars in swapmeets, but better quality of metal on metal and more variety of licence and unlicence cars to choose from.
I think it's more of a passionate thing they want to hold onto now with the dollar car. The multipacks are above a dollar per car now and matchbox is $1.07 for a single where the hotwheels is at $.94 still. I think Mattel will have to near an almost complete loss before they budge on bumping the single's price just so they can keep the 50+ year string.
In from Brasil and i'm very surprised with this information, since the price of a hot wheels here is R$ 10 (reais), more then x10 the original price in USA 💀
in europe the hot wheels price is often more than 2-3$! But we have 1 great shop there where u can buy it for 1eur which is around 1$. But also europe has soooo less STH than usa

The multipacks are above a dollar per car now and matchbox is $1.07 for a single where the hotwheels is at $.94 still. I think Mattel will have to near an almost complete loss before they budge on bumping the single's price just so they can keep the 50+ year string.
It costs £2 its insane, that like $2'30 madness here, for one car bottom range lowest quality
In from Brasil and i'm very surprised with this information, since the price of a hot wheels here is R$ 10 (reais), more then x10 the original price in USA 💀
