Hot Wheels Collectibles Lamborghini Miura

Hot Wheels collectibility do not lie with accuracy, or precision like we expect from Japanese, Chinese, or European diecast makers.  It's the style, charm, vintage nostalgia with these guys.  When I was a kid in Japan, popular trend in toys were "defo-ru-me".  At least that's how I'd spell it.  It's us adopting the word "deformed".  Deformed sounds horrible in English, but deforume in Japan was a cute & catchy name.  Anyway, that's what I see with Hot Wheels.  Often times, they take real cars, make them little bit rounder, turning them into somewhat cartoony-looking diecast cars.

Cars I'm sharing today are Hot Wheels, but with less "deforming"........ and it's really cool.

This red Miura is from the Hot Wheels 100% collection.  I think they are often called "Black Box", referring to the black box packaging they were sold in.  Couple of years earlier, I actually missed out on this red Miura & ended up with a yellow one.  Hot Wheels Legends, Jay Leno Collection Miura.

I love the cheap mainline Hot Wheels, Pop-Culture, Vintage Racing type premium releases, also Red Line Club cars, but Mattel has done a phenomenal jobs with these collectible releases.  As you can see, these more accurate & precise 1/64 diecast somehow retains their "Hot Wheels" charm.  There will be more HW Collectibles posts in the future.  Guaranteed.
