Here it is!!!! Yes
I love coming back and rewatching these year by year showcases. I love your collection and am grateful that you take the time and effort to share it with us.
As someone who loves collecting but really isn't interested in spending a fortune on any hobby. I really do appreciate your videos. I've had a lot of these when I was a kid. I get lucky from time to time in my travels (recently I did acquire the yellow variation of that fire truck, happy to learn of its rarity). I don't have anything that could be considered legitimately mint condition though.
GREAT organized collection.!!!
Faaaaantastic! I love this series!
1988 was a good year!👍🏼👍🏼
Your year by year videos of Hot Wheels are the best - very informative - as a matchbox collector it's a brand I'm not expert in and these are very helpful
That brings back some major memories! In comes the flood of nostalgia haha
This set is amazing. The 20th anniversary stamped cars I NEVER saw before. Very cool. I can't even imagine how much timeand money you've invested into your gigantic collection, but I can guarantee it's well worth it. Thank you for sharing your collections with us.
The Indy 500 🤩🤩
I got a tray that came out of Larry Woods cage at Mattel that held 12 Fangster. Thank you for another amazing vid. I also got a uncirculated Vette Van from Larry Woods cage!
those cars are so cool for the 20th anniversary set! Love the gold cars! The more exotic cars like the Porsche 959 and the Ferrari Testarosa and the AC Cobra! Love the cars and the video like always!
Great video! I thoroughly enjoyed all the information you provided. Its always great to see stuff about these older (under-represented) Hot Wheels.
Great video O-Dawg
Thank you!
I like these video's thank you
Thanks again! Between your videos and our chats I'm learning alot. Thanks.
Fantastic review again. These older vintage Hot Wheels are something special. Nice complete collection. Fun to watch. Thanks mate. ;-)
Great video. I loved to see the whole set. Love the video love your channel👍🏼🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Never seen those 20th anniversary ribbed cars in person, look awesome!
I played with a LOT of these cars; this was when I was just starting to get seriously into toys, Hot Wheels in particular. In part b/c I could now drive myself TO ANY TOY STORE I LIKED! Freedom! The Talbot Lago was my fav then, even now it was a great choice. I also tracked down the NASA truck years later cause I thought it was the coolest! But that Countach, and Testarossa, so crude, almost cartoon cars. But that’s part Hot Wheels culture.
Great video
Thank you for the wonderful 1988 hot wheels video! Hard to believe I was eight years old when those came out!
Good to hear your voice and collection! Very informative video, thank you again for taking time out of your day to show us!
My fav hot wheels is your Larry Woods car! Close second comes to your gold/silver masterpieces! Thank you!
Your bud from Maine!
Thanks for this! I’m looking forward to it!
Wow, I was 13 in '88 & I had some of these, lost some of them & some of them are just banged up now but man, I haven't seen these cars in mint condition until now. Great video! 🍺😎
Thanks for sharing.
I always look forward to seeing your collection by the year update, amazing collection you have
Great collection of cars
Amazing wealth of information!! Thanks for everything you do! 😀
Where u been man I miss ur vids can’t wait for more of them
Thank you for your support! Working on more videos now...
When will y make more green light vids
thanks so much for sharing!!! just love your vids !
awesome video and cars
This made my day thanks
Pretty awesome as usual. Must admit to being a bit jealous of your collecting budget, though I'm quite happy for YOU to have the collection that takes up literally half the house. : ) I've actually used one of your videos to demonstrate to my wife that I really don't have that much of a "problem"...!!!! All the best from west coast BC!
Thank you, and glad to be of help! lol... All the best from cold and snowy Ontario!
Great informational video as always. As a fan of the All Jeep models those Roll Patrols are definately ones I am hunting for. I actually got lucky last week and got to buy a few sets from an actual barn. Yes, a real barn find. Went to pick up some sets advertised thru OfferUp with no idea what I would run into. Mostly early 90s stuff, but, great none the less. Got many of the Final Run series, Racing Series, and a few other great ones. This is definitely a great hobby, but, can get a bit pricey at times when you find a collection and you just can't live without it. Thanks again for all the information you provide.
What great finds! And to buy from a barn... makes it all the more nostalgic and fun!
Info on the Nissan Hardbody truck. A casting that I find interesting and one of my favorites due to having one as a kid.
No doubt, one of the most complete collections...!! You should do a Guide buddy...!!!
Excelent, good video and car. Greetings
Nice! I have three full mint sets, unfortunately two of them are part of my extensive collection kept within the bounds of my dreams, and the other is in my future...my distant future...sigh...sniff...sniff ')
I'm officially addicted to this channel! Awesome collection and my boyee 'O Dawg' knows his stuffage!

Awesome video, thanks for the useful info, also if I remember right rodzilla was issued with red or yellow eyes
Wow..!! That is a great video but the most important part is the Ferrari on the box behind the cars
9:21 the all white Countach for '88 might have been related to the popularity of "Miami Vice" at the time.
As far as I'm concerned this is the best Hot Wheels anniversary, I even created a page on the Hot Wheels wikia, about it!
Great video! The chrome Monster Vette with CTS wheels does exist. I've had three of them and they all came out of 20-packs. I only have one of them left.
Name your trade! :)
Congrats for completing the 1988 hotwheels 20TH anniversary year congrats again. 👍I'm still on the hunt for a lot of those. 👍
I have a few variations of the cars you have shown. Like the 911 Turbo 95. I have a black one with gold wheels. Maybe I got the earlier version. Either way I love it!
Awesome cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How many hot wheels do you have along with the play sets. I have been collecting since I was a kid and now that I am older I have kept going.thanks for the history of hot wheels like it very interesting to watch and learn
Over the years I have located all of the cars for the vintage playsets I have, since most often the cars are missing from these hard to find playsets. The cars often sell on eBay for high prices for harder to find or short run playsets, but then again some cars are affordable. I have around 30 playsets, most dating from 1975 to 1989. Thanks for the question, and happy collecting!
Sting Rod is based on a Pontiac Fiero GT...you have a superb collection and nice vids
Thank you for the correction, appreciated!
WOW.. My favorites would definitely be the Fire Eater, Rescue truck and the Sheriff..
Would you happen to have a Hot Wheels folding garage?? (I forget the actual name of it..) It came out around that time as well.. Maybe late 70's.. I got one in the early 80's and it was my FAVORITE besides the Hot Wheels themselves..
Could we get a playset review\ demonstration if you find another Speedshift 500 set?
So cool! Shining like fine jewelry! Only cooler in my oppinion!
Now I have to dig in the pit. I have multiple variations of most of the Chrome cars on 3 pack cards.
I have a Sol- Aire with open spoiler tampo variation, instead if the light purple, the out line of the stripes and "ultra hots" is dark blue
Interesting, I don't have that model, but from my records it was released in 1989. Would you mind sending me a picture of your Sol-Aire? I would love to see one with the blue in tampo!
I'd be happy too, where do I send it ?
My email is direct from the my channel home page, if you send me an e-mail there I will reply and we can chat directly! Thanks!
Longines pronounced with a soft g, is a watch company that is involved with official timing.
Thank you
I gotta Ask, how often do you thumb through EBay ? cause I thumb through about 4 maybe 5 times a Day. Your information is impressive.
Thank you! I also visit eBay multiple times per day... Hot Wheel hunting is addictive, no doubt about it!
Todos los modelos magníficos !!
Is there plans of doing a M2 or GL collection video, Would be interesting to see how much of it you have and maybe talk about your favorite castings.
I have a 1988 Corvette Zr1 convertible and I can't find any info about it? Can you point me in the right direction?
The odd color turbo streak and thunderstreak are LEO India. Cool video
Thank you! Leo slipped my mind at the time of filming...
Can you tell me where you get the prices for the eighties cars...where it is somewhat accurate. I don't want to overpay for them :)
I have been keeping track of the sale prices of vintage Hot Wheels on eBay for years, so this is now mainly my conclusion for my "price guide".... keep in mind that supply and demand can drastically change the values for older and rare cars.
Been enjoying your vids, though I am not a collector...seeing how much you enjoyed Thunder Road...you might check out Osprey Games Gaslands rule book...use your own cars with rule set for post apocalyptic
lethal races...easy to find templates replace the paper option from the rules...you might enjoy it...many people are converting old metal toy cars for racers....Jim
Thanks for the tip on Gaslands, I just watched a very thorough review of the game instructions and it looks quite interesting!
I was 6 years old when this came out...lol ...im old...😭
Hey wtffor! I found a red Porsche 959 with the same tampos as the blue metal flake track set car. It’s on a us number card. Do you know anything about that?
Very good 👍! 🇧🇷.
Hi again Odawg, Marty here with another question. I am wondering about how many cars were in ,let's say, 1989. I think it was 76? Anyway, compared to today was it easier to collect a whole year back then? I hope this makes sense to you, I ramble. Thanks again.
Hello again Odawg! Another question for you. Is it better to collect Hong Kong versions or Malaysia versions, as far as age? I have a P911 blackwell from long Kong and I'm trying to guess the age. Thank you very much for your time and expertise.
Both Hong Kong and Malaysia base variations are usually of the same production numbers and collector value... although for some models a Hong Kong base will signify it being slightly older than a Malaysia base counterpart.... this because Hot Wheels were first made in Hong Kong up until 1982, then Malaysia as well during the early 1980's through to present day.
I can honestly say that blackwalls are my happy place
Recently picked up (ordered them online actually) Two more M2 castings. the Ford F100 Ranger 4x4 from Auto Trucks Release 50 and the 1957 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer D500 from Auto-Thentics R49.
They have minor flaws here and there but the Dodge has an issue with the drivers side fin insert.
That is a nice set, I was thinking about getting the same one... sorry to hear you had flaws on your models
@@wtffor meh its a part of the hobby for these models. It's a miracle they can make these models and sell them at these prices, yet still make money.
More money equals more new castings.
Cool
Do you have the 1988 red Volkswagen beetle with black on the side and a bit of fire on top of the black spot if you got one let me know if its rare or not
Yes, it's pretty hard to find
Hey ik this was released a year ago but I have a 1988 20th ann corvette stingray with the Blackwalls and its gold chrome with no tampos
I didn’t see you point out the variation on the blue Porsche from the play set. What is the difference?
I realized that I had two of the same on the display table... no variation after all.
You should do a video on the green light heavy duty trucks series 16 one they come out it would be a great video! 😁😁😁🙂🙂🙂
Do you go after base variations?
Yes, I do... it is a great way to confirm what years nearly identical castings were released (example window tint variations, tampo color variations, etcetera) . Thank you for your question!
Yeah I love going after variations. It’s crazy how many tampo variations there are for the cal customs.
I have a flame stopper with yellow centered rims. Is that from an upcoming year?
Thanks for the question! Yes, the Flame Stopper with yellow rims (otherwise seemingly same paint and tampo) is from the 1994 released 5 car set known as "Blimp Support Team"
wtffor Thanks! Will you make year by year videos for the number card era? I hope so
I have been having so much fun "revisiting" my collection in these year-by-year videos, that I now plan to for sure do the Blue Card era through to 1994, and quite possibly beyond! I need to re-check my completeness percentage of the cars going forwards from 1995, as often I do not collect cars that don't interest me from the mid-90's through to present day (fictional cars, poor paint job choices, etc.)
wtffor yeah there’s some pretty bad paint jobs in those little series from the mid-late 90s and 2000s because they had to fit a theme.
Are you going to the nationals in Chicago in april?
That would be cool! I will look into it... thank you for the heads up!
Not a problem. I know that tickets are sold out.
Hello wtf. Question. Why do some hot wheels and matchbox cars dont have a stamp on the bottom of the casting? Like the model name and year and then some do have a stamp. Shouldn't all castings have a name and year?
Good question! It would be helpful if Hot Wheels had put a name stamp and year on all Hot Wheels, but alas they never have been consistent with this. The year on the base of the car is only telling of what year the casting was first created... not what year the car is with it's various paint changes.
I’m surprised you don’t have the motorcraft thunderbird stocker
But I do!
Where do u get those?
I have collected them for years from many sources, check your flea markets and antique stores
i have the intercooled set but it says 1987??
The copyright on the box art and castings is typically from the year prior to the actual release
@@wtffor they are loose. thanks for your knowledge. you are defiantly the one i watch for the teachings.
Can we know how much was the Larry Wood car? 😉
Yes of course... I paid $180 US for it in May of 2017.
wtffor I thought it would be much more expensive! Congrats for owning such a unique piece!
Why would 7 people dislike this? They should be banned FROM EARTH 😂 I’m thinking they’re accidental
👍
Hey I Got GREAT News The Cars I Got is : 71 Ford mustang Mach 1 , Tesla model x , 17 Ford GT , 17 Pagani huayra roadster , Corvette C7 Z06 converitible , 16 Mazda CX-5, and OSHKOSH DENFENCE M- ATV
That's not all the 1988s I have a 1988 gold coloured ford hotrod car with redline wheels
I used to have a no tampo contach but it got burned in a fire saddly
Can I get a shout out?
I think its not complete. I have f40 from 1988 and i dont see it here. Whhat i dont understand
By my records and research, the Ferrari F40 was not released until 1989.
@@wtffor I have in my hands ferrari f40 hot wheels made in 1988 Malaysia. Or Malaysia does not counts?
🎉
No UH fangster.?
The Ultra Hots Fangster was first released in 1986, part of the first wave of Speed Demons. You can see it in my 1986 Collection video.
