One of my fondest memories was walking into a WHSmith in sheffield, and hung on the peg for some inexplicable reason was a car card from the mid 2000s, not sure what year but it was in that signature dark blue card design with the car silhouette, bear in mind this was probably around 2018 so that car had either literally warmed that peg for over a decade, or what is more likely is that a worker found it in a random time capsule in the store room, untouched for so long! i didn't pick it up, because it was just an uninspired fantasy design, but the bewilderment of seeing such a relic on an actual store peg made me have an affinity for WHSmith stores, and weirdly since, i've seen a couple cars crop up from the 2014/2015 seasons and picked up a mastretta MXR just hanging on a peg inside a WHSmith, i also once found an aston martin one/77 from 2010! maybe they just don't sell them at all considering it's only really known as a book store, and also they typically price them at almost £3 a pop, but either way it amazes me every time i see it. Love the videos mate, honestly worth giving your local WHSmith a pop, for some reason they've been locally showing up with ancient treasures for me!
Great video, we’ve had most good finds in Tesco and Aldi lately including the Pajero and Camaro super’s from this year , first time in 3 years collecting we’ve ever found STH’s
Loved the new vid. Been hunting in sains today found a lovely ain't fare TH just casually sitting there. First TH I've found since I started being influenced by you. Definitely getting more knowledge now but I'd love to know where you get your knowledge from?
Nice find mate! I usually use these sites mate for a little insight into HW: www.hwtreasure.com/ hwcollectorsnews.com/ orangetrackdiecast.com/category/news/ But you want to watch Lamley on youtube or peak time racing for knowledge on boxes. At some point I might start doing box openings but atm financially theres no way 😅 Hope some of this helps mate
I'm a middle aged man , my wife says it's a mid life crisis. I'm intrigued with this so at the weekend I want on my first hunt. Visiting 8 stores over 5 hours was enjoyable and frustrating. I looked at least 500 castings and found no TH, is this normal. I'm wondering if it's who you know in the outlets for when new stock comes in. I was amazed at how many of the outlets had the same ones. 20% of what I looked at not worth buying due to box damage. Any way I targeted a serious and came home with 20 castings. I enjoyed it but realised collecting can be expensive and frustrating. Maybe more rewarding if you have the time to look and the contacts. Great channel by the way😊
Its a great casting I really want to find the 2024 godzilla 😅 Welcome to the club we should have tshirts 😂 really good fun isnt't it and finding something you want to add to the collection even better! What are you collecting at the moment?
@@TheWheelCollector well he’s collecting them really, I just like to hunt through and try find the ones I know he’s after, found one of the Subarus he’s been looking for the other day, he put that straight in the basket 🤣
It has crossed my mind a few times and been confirmed by a staff member in my local Asda that they actually do check the boxes and put the sth to one side for after shift but it's not like every store has a hot wheels collector with the knowledge to do this so for some yes others no 🙌👀
It's crazy isn't it mate there should be a standard sales price but stores just set their own on what they think they can sell them for... £1.50 - £1.80 is what we want £2+ is crazy for mainline

@@TheWheelCollector cheers mate perfect. I'm off to smyths later for a big hunt
smashing fun groove hunt man shared liked loved!
Tesco are clearing out their toy isle to make way for The Entertainer toys so hot wheels and matchbox cars are on sale at 53p.
Such a shame that so many cards are battered and ripped. Have noticed this in Morrison's and Sainsbury's. Think pegs are better to be honest.

That Mod Rod art car in the blue is a special edition for certain stores here in U.S. Difficult to find.
A few cars that I still need!
Nice hunting!! :D
Cheers! :)
Oh nice what you looking for mate? Thanks!
The Godzilla, no way 😱, I’m Now converted to the HW hunting, watched my fella on the hunt for so many recently, I’m now strangely addicted too 😂

Yay more content,next half hour watching this video 👍
I'm doing the GCSEs and I've missed out a few e case drops from my entertainer I hope I get the skyline soon 🙏 🤧
Wishing you luck on your next hunt mate!
I Love York. A beautiful city
King Kuda is a Plymouth Barracuda
YORKSHIRE MENTIONED
No matter which morrisons people go in and what we see on youtube the baxes are completly knackered
Do you think the shop workers get first dibs on the th and sth
It has crossed my mind a few times and been confirmed by a staff member in my local Asda that they actually do check the boxes and put the sth to one side for after shift but it's not like every store has a hot wheels collector with the knowledge to do this so for some yes others no 🙌👀
@@TheWheelCollector yeagh I can tell at my local aldi nobody collects hotwheels everybody looking at me like I am a big kid
I might as well go to Yorkshire to look for Hot Wheels because my local Walmarts have not had shit for MONTHS.
You can tell if it's 2024 release from the number tab. White tab is 2024.
Very cool hunting bro
Thanks mate!
When was this I was there on Tuesday
Bro, I should have just come to Yorkshire to get the Nissan 'Godzilla' Skyline 😂
😅 I may have to do some swaps or maybe a whatnot stream and get some of these Skylines out into the community!
I found the r32 skyline in bnm and it was on the floor upside down luckily the cars was mint , never found another since 🤪
how come the prices of hot wheels are so different in different stores you go in
It's crazy isn't it mate there should be a standard sales price but stores just set their own on what they think they can sell them for... £1.50 - £1.80 is what we want £2+ is crazy for mainline
I hate that some shops are just throwing the cars into boxes or cages where im from. Nightmare for us
