HotWheels Retro Car Releases - bjbrownie - 04 Sep 2013
Looks like HotWheels have got into retro gear by releasing this collection of film & TV vehicles, the usual popular KnightRider Kitt, BTTF DMC , A Team van and newbies Magnum PI 308 Ferrari and Smokey & the Bandit TransAm.
The BTTF looks like the old Johnny Lightning version but the A Team van appears to be similar to the regular release one with the plastic wheels.
According to the website they'll be available for around $3, possibly in early 2014. 8)

Good info. I have also seen the Pontiac Fiero from ferris bueller's day off is being done by HotWheels.
Time to check out Walmart if anyone is going to the States. I got several Model D's when I was over in the US for 99 cents a piece.

That looks like the Hotwheels BTTF car body of 2011 mated with the wheels of the HW Boulevard DeLorean of 2012 - real rubber tyres -
.They have another in the works too:

Two that would be good are the 1955 whitewall wheels version and the 'railroad' type from BTTF 3- plus the standard car with different bonnets....... it wouldn't take much to retool the existing DeLorean and BTTF versions- are you reading this, HotWheels? :lol:
