Hot Wheels RLC "Holiday Hauling" Hiway Hauler

For the holiday season, I will be sharing few "Holiday/Christmas" cars, and right off the bat is my favorite:  Holiday Hauling Hiway Hauler from the Hot Wheels Red Line Club.

I'm not a fan of the Hiway Hauler casting or anything, but there are couple that I like, and this one, I absolutely love.  You will see what I mean in the last picture.  P.S.  5,500 of these were sold.

  I hope you enjoy the pics(don't forget about the last pic lol).

I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't sure if I was going to uncard this one.  It took little courage.  Okay, I actually just said #$%* it.  :D

Front is not "TEN".  I brought it up here, too.  With better front treatment, it would've been one of my all-time favorite casting, if not "the" favorite.  I seem to be the only one bothered by this though.  I've never seen anybody else bring it up.  *shrug*

After Lamley Post hyping up the artistic value of the card, I had to save it.  :)

Hot Wheels RLC 2011 Selections Blown Delivery

Hot Wheels RLC 2011 Selections Blown Delivery

This may be my first RLC car(Red Line Club).  #'d to 9408, not at all a rare release these days, but in my earlier days of collecting, it took me sometime to convince myself to spend the kind of dough required to buy something like this.  I didn't know anything about RLC, or serial #'d releases.  *goes onto TTP website to see how much I actually paid*  Okay, I paid $27.50(shipped).  I love its style, and I LOVE the Spectraflame paint job.

I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure this casting's exclusive to RLC & conventions.  It's pretty much exclusive only to the collectors.

I'm not a NASCAR guy.  When Toyota joined the race few years back, I did get lukewarm towards it.  If it's on TV, I may watch for bit, but I still don't follow them or anything.  

Now, I've seen these 1/64 NASCAR cars(single, carded) at Walmart, and I like Camrys & Fusions, but since I'm not a fan or anything, I never spent $6 on one.  Yesterday however, I notice these Greenlight diorama type packaging & they featured two cars for $6.  I was on board at that price, so I picked up the set that featured Camry & Fusion.  No offense, but I'm glad I didn't spend $6 a piece on these.

On each side are the slick looking trading cards.  Neat packaging, it was easy to open & detach the cars.

NASCAR, plastic base, wheels that sticks in & out loose like cheap hot wheels(axle shaft's too long), etc., etc., these cars don't do too much for me.  This set for $6 though, not bad.  Camry either have a dent, or misplaced tampo that makes it appear as though it has a dent on the right side(passenger side) of the front grille?  Maybe they replicated the collision damage from the race(harhar).
