Deora II Truck

The Deora II is the second version of the Deora.
The original was one of the first 16 Hot Wheels cars ever made.
The second one came out a few years ago and is an updated model.
The original had two removable surf board, on the updated one the surf boards are molded onto the vehicle.  
This one has been made in several colors.
And the silver one actually has removable surf boards, very cool.  Good for my Beach Blanket project.

8 Ball Car

This is a Hot Wheels car.
It has a Magic 8 Ball in the center.
It is a nice looking car.
I could be repainted and look pretty good.
But I plan on leaving it like it is now.
I think a Batman Villain could be developed who could us a Magic 8 Ball as a motif.
The 8 Ball could be removed and seats and steering wheel put in their place.
Overall it has a nice and unique link.
It could be a radar dome vehicle, perhaps.
The purple paint seems a good color for this car.
Big surprise, this actually works like a Magic 8 Ball.
I had no idea.
So a very unique car in many ways.

Surf EV

The is a Hot Wheels EV, not based on a real vehicle.
It has surfboards in the back so perfect for my Beach Blanket collection.
The car has high ground clearance and good approach and depart angles.
It has two surfboard molded into the back cargo bed.
But it is a cool enough car that I may use some for my space forces.
Probably have to put other cargo in the back to obscure the surfboards.
Or maybe give one to the Silver Surfer.

 But if your surfboard can fly, why do you need a car?

Surf Crate

Hot Wheels Surf Crate.
A surfing dune buggy.
 A sort of hot rod Meyers Manx.
I got a couple as it is a pretty cool car, and perfect for my Beach Blanket collection.
Note the skull theme on the car on the left.  Subtle and well done.
