Formula 1

 A second version of Arrow Dynamic.

It's a very nice race car, but sadly no driver figure.

No explanation why here.

I also got it in this other color a short while ago.  It's nice they are doing cars with different wheels and colors at the same time so you can get a little variety for cars like this that might benefit from having multiples.

This is another Formula 1 race cart.

Maisto is a brand that has been around a long time but I don't buy much from them.

Mostly I have police cars and a few others.

This is nice race car and as you can see I got two of them.

So when combined with some of my older cars I now have a reasonable number of Formula 1 cars for a decent race.  I doubt they all served together, but I am pretty flexible about that.
 

Batmobile Blues

The 66 Batmobile, the best looking car ever built.

For some reason, Hot Wheels have been on Batman overload recently.

In stores right now are at least 4 versions of this car in different colors and even this body as a monster truck.

I have been buying them to use for a major Batman related project I have been gradually working on.

While this is the same casting they have been making for years, they change the interior plastic color, the windshield insert and the paint scheme.  They really seem to like different pin striping too.
 

Roadster

Max Steel Hot Wheels car.

This single seat roadster has been released by Hot Wheels at least 6 times in different colors, wheels and markings.

So I got two identical ones.

Nice fan in the front.

This will certainly go with my hot rod group.  I can see this loaded with nitro glycerin and running into a giant Gila monster.
 

More Mo-Stash

It folds open to be a mustache comb.

It's not a real comb, the teeth are filled in.

Probably the lawyers said it was a bad idea.  But it does at least look like a mustache.

Rather interesting feature.  Not sure what to do with it, bit it's ready if I ever do!

The bottom side of a mo-stash.
 

Mo-Stash

Interesting concept.

Looks like a regular hot rod.

Even comes in red.

But Mo-Stash has a secret.

You can't tell just by looking at it.

Even two of them together keep the secret.

Tune in tomorrow for the great reveal.
 

Custom VW Van

Hot Wheels VW Van.

It is more aerodynamic, sort of.

The back of the card is filled with useless information.

Interesting how the air flows through the back of the vehicle.

 A wind tunnel test would be interesting.

It seems to have very little interior room for a van.

It does look cool.

Even underneath.
Likely it will spend time with my beach people or racing crowd.

Batman 66

 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/833572732624872

 Today I started a new Facebook group.  If you follow this blog you know I have an interest in Batman.  As a child I admired the fictional characters devotion to duty and crime fighting.  It may have contributed to my desire to be a police officer as an adult.

Here is the specific description of the group: 

 Batman 66 is about the Batman TV show, the specific comic book series Batman '66 and the animated series Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders, Batman vs. Two-Face, and of course the original Batman movie. AI or other media should accurately depict the original characters in a manner respectful to the atmosphere of the shows. This is a family friendly group for people who love the performances of Adam West and Bert Ward as Batman and Robin. This is a no sales group.

 

 

 

 

Real Drag Racing

New Hot Wheels dragster.

Little wheels in front, big ones in back.

Legal stuff.

Look at that engine!

This is a great looking car, I picked up several, and I may repaint some and may swap some engines too.

Nice bubble canopy.

Parachute pack.

Overside.
