Thanks always for taking the time to swing by the channel and drop an awesome comment too. Had a blast making this video. The 3rd set of Neon Speeders is going to be incredible and hopefully will bring a casting that can defeat that Dodge Viper in a drag race. Lots to look forward too. Appreciate you brother. Wish you a fantastic week ahead 🚗💨💨
Glad you highlighted this second batch. So far I've bought the 510, the pink Skyline, Integra, RX7 drift & Eclipse of the eight. The other 3 (S2000, 350Z, Celica) have been pegwarmers that I shall buy in the future. I've opened a spare Datsun & it's as well detailed as that beautiful blue 50yr model (which I have in my display shelves). Oddly, my local Smyths where I bought the Neons from, seems to have a lot of the Wagon sitting on pegs, which I thought would be a VHTF model. Seems to the the same with the purple mainline 510 wagon, which I have found being left on pegs too. My favourite mainline of it is the yellow version from 2015 with red/white trim & Datsun badges. The Boulevard model from 2013 is a gem in pale green/aqua & red wheels..
Nice man! Epic comment and hats off to you. Definitely scored the best from set 2! Also, for real. Why was it nearly impossible to find the Honda Civic and the Skyline from set 1 and now… in Smyths just like you said. The whole set of JDM goodness are ALL peg warmers in the UK!!! It’s insane. Crazy. Really pleased you enjoyed the vid mate and thank you for encouraging me to make this video. Appreciate you! Sounds like you got yourself a solid collection bro. Thanks so much for sharing 🚗💨
Okay so I'm only new to all this. However, it still surprises me how people haven't maybe noticed one thing when it comes to racing cars that often determines the winner...and its not weight , wheels or aerodynamics. A lot of these hot wheels sit very low to the track (body kits etc) which means whenever the go into a steep angle or a loop they are impeded as not all the wheels can be in contact with the track. Meaning there's no optimum roll and instead are only been carried by the velocity built up. Okay so we are talking milliseconds here...but clearly it has an effect. As long as a car is not absolutely crude in its design , all you need do is press down on the hood as if to sea saw it...the greater the angle the car can be put before the front end touches the track/ground...the likelihood that this car will be fastest on a track with steep angles. Love your presentations. I like the heads up on what will likely be the most desirable in each set. I mean if we're going to collect these things...its good to know right ? 👍
Hello mate. Thanks for the epic comment. A great read in fact! It took me 2 months to come up with and build my drag loop. Hot wheels have a product of their own which inspired me. I just wanted to make something big and fast! The bottom line is that I have made each of the 4 lanes absolutely as identical as can naturally be. This way it’s a fair race and an exciting one to me. It’s fun to watch premiums and different body shapes hit the loop and sometimes a very surprising outcome too. It just boils down to originality with me. I didn’t want to make anything simple and the same as other people. I understand not everyone will like what I have built but that’s on them. I enjoy embracing the difference. If you want enough of my videos you’ll get it. Nice chatting with you. Hope you’ll be back to watch my next upload and enjoy some more videos too 🚗💨
Nice man, thank you so much. Great to see you here. Had a lot of fun and of course put loads of effort into making this one. Hope you enjoy it. Did you pick up this whole set or just a few of the best? Wish you a great day. See you in the next one 🚗💨
@@customcollects Still didn't spot them in stores... And my wallet isn't that big enough to get them online, but I want 4 of them, wrote them in my other comment :D
Thank YOU for leaving an awesome comment and for stopping by the channel too. Appreciate your kindness fellow Diecast collector. Yes, even still to this day I really enjoy buying new castings and revisiting their history. It’s one of the best parts of this hobby in my opinion, I guess simply because Hot Wheels have been around since the 1960s. Really happy to read that you enjoy that side of the content. Did you pick up a set of Neon Speeders 2 or a few select cars? Wish you a great day 🚗💨
I admittedly had to look this up as I didn’t realise that OF COURSE America had a limited edition yellow momo wagon! I’ll be placing that one firmly on my radar going forward. Thanks for highlighting it!
Hey mate. Great to see you here! The second set looks incredible right! I really do hope that our voice as collectors was heard at Mattel HQ and that Neon Speeders 3 will now follow in line with the latest 2nd release. Nice looking set of cars too. Which upcoming release are you looking forward to picking up next? Appreciate your kind words. Wish you a great day too friend 🚗💨
My favourites here are the Datsun, Skyline (FAV, love the pink), Honda S2K and the Eclipse (can't believe the 4 I want are the slowest hahahahaha) Great video and looking forward to the next one! I'm also in love with that pink Porsche from the 2nd Mix!!
Great picks! I’ve found 2 more skylines and the Datsun again in another store and bought them to keep as spares. Dude, for real. When I film these races as it takes a long time to set up each race I very rarely need to record multiple takes and I always laugh to myself like you just did about the same thing. I’m so sure a certain car will win and out of nowhere another car wins by a huge amount! It’s a lot of fun. Really appreciate the kind words! You’re the best! 3rd release will go hard mate. Make sure you follow macnninc on Instagram 👍
Yeah you gotta obviously use your head and lots of veteran collectors will know more about which licenses Hot Wheels have and the relationships Mattel have with those brands. But hey! It nice to dream and it’s fun to read about lol. Great to chat with you mate. It’s definitely one of the best parts about posting a video. Did you manage to pick up all 6 cars from Vintage racing club? Which upcoming set are you looking forward to next?
@@customcollects Same, I love chatting with you here on the comments! I didn't get the 6 Vintage ones, I only wanted the Mercedes and the Chase but I'm probably never gonna get the Chase. As for other releases, I really really want the Exotic Envy BMW Procar, that livery is just so pretty and I love excentric liveries. Also looking forward to get my hands on the Decades of Fast set and get the El Camino, the Buick with the removable hood and the Jetta!
The Buick with the removable hood is hilarious. I won’t review that set but I really really hope Hot Wheels put out another mainline/basic version of that car so I can race it with and with the hood on! Would be very interesting to see what happens. I have a pre order on for Slide Street 2! And the next two Collector Display sets are going to be amazing. Really can’t wait to get my hands on a premium Maxima Drift car! The one from the Greddy display. Very nice looking for sure 🚗💨
Hope you’re doing great mate. Did you pick up this set of 8? Or just a select few? Really looking forward to the 3rd set now. Lots of great sets coming out in 2024. Nice work Hot Wheels. Appreciate you stopping by the channel and for leaving a comment too. You’re the best 🚗💨
@@yayasgaragecustomdiecast7198 it’s strange how sets at the same mid level can be hit and miss like that. For example. Vintage racing club is no where in stores here in the UK. Same from J-Imports. And then, we have decades of fast and women of fast everywhere as well as Neon Speeders. If you find this set for a good price online and you have the first set then the 2nd release is a must buy. Or just grab the Datsun and the Skyline 👍 which store do you normally pick things up in Canada?
Walmart and a grocery store called Maxi. I don't buy on line, way too expensive with shipping. I also collect more older stuff I can find in flea markets and yard sales, Love to restore and customize them.@@customcollects
@@customcollects not sure, I go to some many stores in the last few months. Maybe a toy galaxy, toy town . Na I didn’t buy the set I only buy the casting really like .
Love the blacklight test. Glad they actually glow now. Thanks for another entertaining video!

There was a yellow momo version of the 510 wagon👍🏻
I admittedly had to look this up as I didn’t realise that OF COURSE America had a limited edition yellow momo wagon! I’ll be placing that one firmly on my radar going forward. Thanks for highlighting it!
I have also tested both sets under UV light and the second one is way better than the first!

After suffering Mattels lack of acknowledgement for us UK collectors for years, I can safely say they don't listen to us😕
Well yes, mostly yes. However. Won’t be long until my advan skyline arrives with me so at least they let us use the memberships we pay for. lol!
£3.49 in north London
Oh no way! That’s a result. In which store mate? Did you pick up a set? Appreciate you stopping by the video too 🚗💨
