- Check out the rare variations on these groups of old Hot Wheels cars I bought on eBay. Three groups of cars including the Firebird "Hot Bird" casting, Highway / Sheriff Patrol police cars, and the XT-3 experimental vehicles. Stick around to the end of this video for an update on future channel videos and news. Thanks for watching, be sure to comment, subscribe, and hit the notification bell so you don't miss out on future videos!
Very nice haul. Love the aqua/ocean blue rare sheriff patrol!
I’ve been collecting Hot Wheels since 1992 and hands down sincerely appreciate all your efforts with filming and editing the videos over the years. Your single year in review videos have taught me a lot about Hot Wheels and I’ve always anticipated your next one. Yes the Tomart books help us identifying Hot Wheels, but seeing you display and describe the cars is much more satisfying. I thank you for all you’ve done and will continue to watch for your next video. Good luck with school and your next adventure in life.
Wow good comment 👏👏👏👍
Too bad it's not about PT boats, cruise liner ships, submarines, bathyscaphes, combat jets or even commercial passenger airliners.
What's this also not about? It's easy; this educational video never showed any hot wheels flying saucer jets, it's the kind the German Nazis had in the near end of WWII.
Don't forget; the Soviet Russians had the same thing, and so did we fellow Americans during the entire 1950s.
What the hell are you going on about? 😕
Fantastic review. You keep me motivating collecting these vintage Hot Wheels. They are something special. The two black & white police cars you compared at 7.22 minutes, they have a different hood tampo. One goes to the front of the hood and one don't. And of course as you mentioned the base. Great vid. Enjoyed this one a lot. ;-)
Your videos have inspired me to step up my game in becoming a Nascar diecast & collectible historian. You have a museum quality collection and knowledge.
Sheriff car is a India/leo release. Nice haul! I was watching those on eBay. The seller always has the good stuff! And never sells cheap.
HUGE FAN of the police cars and have many myself! Love this vid!! 👍👍👍
The Sheriff Patrols and the Hot Birds are some of my favorite Hot Wheels oldies and they seem to have so many variations.
And no problem with how often you make videos, studies come first (and work of course). Thanks for showing these.
India LEO Hot Wheels are famous for having the country of origin removed from the base. Also quite famous for having unique tempo variations and color variations available only for a VERY short time. Some castings from LEO Mattel were quite literally produced in an amount that could fill only a few hands full. Nice finds
The 80s cars are my forte and have been diligently searching for those harder variations thanks to your videos. Perhaps a future video on the hardest/rarest cars of the 80s? Best of luck in your new pursuit!
My two cents is that I'd prefer more unedited longer videos to fewer edited ones. I love listening to you go on about cars! So I'd be happy if you just turn the camera on, pull out some cars (or open some cars) and talk about them and show them. Awesome channel and content as always :)
Your knowledge & passion for collecting shines through with each video you post. I look forward to the next one. I pray your future endeavors are a blessing to you & your family.👍😎👍
That turquoise color police car is cool! I think TH-cam has also changed the algorithms concerning videos that might be aimed at kids, something with ad revenue...?
Good luck with the study's and thanks again fof sharing your finds and collection with us 🍻
I still have my original red line hot wheels from the late 60s when I was a kid.👍
"All things must pass". Sounds like an era of your life is slowing down and a new era is beginning. Good luck with your studies and new career. I have enjoyed your videos greatly and have often used your year by year videos as a reference for my own collection. Good luck!
I've got 400 cars loose in a case I made in my garage near Toronto, it gets a little humid in the summer, cold in winter but I've insulated it as good as I can, no uv exposure and most cars are from last few years ....will they be ok in there for a few years until I finish my basement? I had a few in there for a year to see what happens and they are still mint. got another 400 id like to display soon, garage is my man cave!
also....sorry to hear about the revenue....we all love your videos, ill still watch everything you produce! thank you for the awesome entertainment
Hey goodluck with the studies! I don't mind it being one shot vids ;) Just love seeing some cars I've never seen before :p
Superb video once again mate. Congratulations on finding so many rare variations. Best wishes for your studies and the change in career too =)
Ok I haven't even hit the one minute mark and I'm drooling. The two police cars are so mint it's scary. I have very few "classic" 70's & 80's castings in my collection. I love seeing these even though I'll never get them..lol. Well the Hot Bird and cop cars are two I do love. So back to the show.
Good luck with your studies. Always great videos from you 👍
I was literally just thinking when will you post a video damn i must think more 🤣🤣
Oh man great haul sweet cars bro super.
The police car at 5:55 I like the rims on that one! Makes it look tough!
Sheriff cars. Only two spots on the wall. Gonna have to do some shuffling. Needs eleven more spaces. LoL.
My how time flies. Good Luck as you move forward with your new career. Loved watching all your videos over the years. Especially the vintage and off - brand stuff. I especially missed the Ice Out contest you use to do at the pool.
Thanks for sticking with me all these years, and rest assured I'm not quitting the videos, just a slow-down to a more manageable amount of them for the time being. Hope to see you here again!
Thanks for all you do wtffor. Love seeing your collection.👍🏼🤘🏼😎
Awesome vintage mega haul congrats. 👍I'm still on the hunt for most of those. 👍
I had the American flag Hot Bird and the tempos wore off and now it’s just a white car.
Some of those hotbirds May have different shades of red in the interiors as well.
Some great additions to your collections
Always enjoy your insights. ‘Keep on truckin’ as we used to say
Awesome video as always 👍
Oh my! Please keep hunting, then showing off your wares! I'm on the opposite end of the planet to you (tasmania) and still occasionally find great black walls! Your passion is inspiring mate! Ps, please, never have months off AGAIN! 🤪
You channel is my favorite for this topic really appreciate you hard work!!
Thanks for all the incredible information.
Very Cool!!! Enjoyed this Video!!!
I'd gladly watch ads if it means you get to continue. You are by far the most watched die cast youtuber in my arsenal.
you have the best Channel EVER for die cast
Nice I really like the police cars, firebirds and I don't know why but cool
You do what you have to do and don't look back!
It's time to focus on you and owe us no expectations for the future on videos.
Those are awesome that's quite a haul
Nice score and variations
Awesome cars! I’m ready for 1990!
Very cool thanks 👍
very nice pick ups and again a nother GREAT video’ i wish you the best in school may GOD BLESS you and your family 🙏🏻🙂
I don't collect but build models and dioramas and really enjoy the videos and your collection it's like popping in to visit a buddy and get updated good luck with all of your future endeavors Cheers from Hamilton
Thanks for the video, too bad you won’t be doing a lot of vids in the near future. I understand the cost of buying this precious cars can burn cash fast. Please continue the year by year videos, they are or will become a reference on the net. No one is doing this kind of stuff and you have the knowledge to back it up. Thanks again
Thank you for your comment, I definitely will continue with the year-by-year videos... they are some of my favourite most fun ones to make! :)
Just found your site!thank you,and awesome job!🖒🖒🖒
Thanks, Always good stuff bra happy hunting and THANKS
It's to bad it's not working out.You do a fantastic job presenting your collection.Good luck with your schooling and looking forward to your future video's.
That's an awesome haul nice👍
The police cruiser is a LEO India, great purchases. TH-cam has definitely changed. Good luck with school and the new career.
Just try to remember; I listen and watch these videos for educational reasons, it's all about how you restore certain toy cars.
Thanks!
Love your videos, makes me jealous! I guess I'm mostly a numbers collector, loose and carded w/variations. I'm missing about 5 cards, and i think you can guess which ones. I do have most of the black wall cars and a small redline collection. Wish you were closer, would love to visit. Anyway keep em coming when you can.
Some great cars in beautiful condition, well worth the money. Best of luck with the studying and change of career.
Nice haul!
Your information you give is as cool as the cars. Base variations? I heard of the Malaysia and Indonesia etc variants. But the elimination of the orgin off the casting is something I will study more of. Also I have a few "errors". The 2018 Mustang chess car missing half the tampos. Same with a Renault #5 as well. But all mine are 2015-present with some scattered 2000's and up. I have a blue card Oskosh Plow truck in black. That's another baby. My set or collection isn't close to yours. I just got back into this after my multiple pneumonia bouts and weeks in the Respiratory ICU. Channels like this, the racing, and the well I thought was a community until I came into contact with the scalpers. It's a amazing hobby and I love it. But I already have to deal with a terminal illness. When I go into a store here I have to deal with terminal stupidity. Scalpers have threatened people here. Started fights. A pallet of merchandise dumped on a child because the guy had to have the case of hot wheels. I truly enjoy this hobby but now it's turned into a money scam for people in eBay. Now I'm NOT referring to your purchase. Not at all. The cars you bought are long since gone. It's the scam and sell 99cent cars for $30.00 on eBay. It's no longer a hobby, it's become a business. If you don't have access to creep around stores for hours and hours your screwed. The Bugatti Cheron was the last straw. Before the release there were unrivited models on eBay going for $70.00. These were people from the factory stealing pieces and selling them. Now 5 packs are being bought, gutted, good cars replaced with whatever, and returned. The Datsun 510 wagon in the 5pk. Speed Blur series. I saw 9 packs on the shelf. NONE had the 510 wagon. I don't know if this is the same up by you. I'm in the northern US. I call it the armpit of the state. Scalpers outnumber collectors 10-1. I stopped buying Star Wars and Marvel due to the rip offs. Sorry just a rant from a guy who loves Hot Wheels and hasn't seen anything new or worthwhile in a store in 3 months.
These have Malaysia bases? Mine have Hong Kong bases, interested in these they look awesome who sells these?
Mattel started moving production of mainline Hot Wheels from their old factory in Hong Kong to the then new one Malaysia in the early 1980s. I'm not 100% sure of the exact start and end dates but I think the transitional period years were 1981 through 1985, so many mainlines from that era can be found in both Hong Kong and Malaysia chassis variations.
@@SteveBrandon ok cool, I'll do some checking and c what I find, otherwise awesome cheers KC Tasmania Australia
I am not a collector at all but because of your videos i keep an eye out for them at thriftstores and such ;)
I do own a few though, one is a greenish police taxi from 77 i found that a strange combo. ;))
Great video O-Dawg!
Hey brother! Great video, and I FULLY understand your comments at the end; My channel too is a work of passion....I post my videos because I love RC flight, just like you love collecting die-cast cars. Your efforts in providing quality collector's reference videos is greatly appreciated, and I want you to know that is largely due to YOUR videos that I too now collect these tiny gems. Cheers to you from the Mojave Desert my friend 👍😎🍺
I’ve been following your videos pretty religiously since I started collecting again a few years ago (and also diving into your older ones!) Bummer to hear about the revenue - have you considered some sort of Patreon or something similar? I imagine there are a lot of collectors that rely on your insightful videos. Hopefully something works out! Good luck with the new studies too.
Happy hunting.
I found the All-American Firebird Hot Bird carded at a Value Village thrift store in Ottawa in, I believe it was, 2014 but the card was trash so I opened it and it's now on my wall-rack with 4 other stars-and-stripes themed cars.
It's just the common red interior variation with silver UH wheels and no "Hot Bird" on the chassis. I think it's with the lighter blue hood tampo but I don't have another example with the darker tampo with which to compare it so I can't say that with 100% confidence.
Nice video, found it when looking for information about sheriff patrol car. I was wondering who made them in France in 70's as i found one here in France...🤔
New here and love your collection. Hope you change your mind and keep the videos coming. Love hot wheels
Random question, I've got a dozen hot wheels loose from 70s-80s. What's the easiest way to identify them? Tried eBay going by dates etc but not found cars that look like mine, some have different colours or decals.
Have you tried using a guide book, such as Michael Zarnok's?
Love your video's and I watch racegrooves and Mark for the last couple of months has been saying that TH-cam has changed, for you guys making a revenue. Sorry to hear that it hit you too. Also, Thx for getting me hooked on Ultra Hots as I watched your video that you did in your back yard on your mail call. I picked up a few here and there and I need to open the 1-12 carded ones. I've learned a lot from Mark and I want to Thank You too cause I've learned a lot from you also☺❗ Now I'll go watch your day 1 video and catch up❗ Good Luck at your schooling and you made me laugh when you said, Mid Life Crisis 😂😂😂😂😂❗Take Care 😎
Did you find any info on the turquoise/aqua sheriffs patrol? I just scored one myself..
Your a cool Guy I have seen most of your Hot Wheel's video I have learned a lot thank you for your time!"🏎💨
Love your channel man! Good luck.
Lol a $ 1000 for 25 old hot wheels i meen i love hot wheels. But damb dude wtf
DAS BERGY MEISTER He made his money back with this lot and then some. The crazy thing is that no matter how long he holds on to them they’ll still retain their value better than any fiat currency will, lol
Just discovered your site and I love it! In one of your other videos you mention the change for the worse in the Texas HW site and I couldn't agree more.
It was so informative and now just a mess.
Where do you live in Canada?
I'm in Niagara and have a small collection but when I'm ready to sell the best ones I will send you pics first before I post anything on Ebay.
Thank you for keeping me in mind! :)
Good luck with the study and hopefully see you soon. :-)
Another fantastic video my friend. I hate to hear that your channel has slowed down I've been working hard to build my channel as well as I travel the country and play with diecast but I've noticed it's slow going on this end also have you ever thought about doing patreon and maybe some merch I know having very little time to do so may make it hard but it seems like some of the other TH-camrs that are doing it are making it work quite well idk just some food for thought well good luck with school and may your new career be profitable and rewarding
Thank you for the great ideas and suggestions, possibly in the future I'll pursue some new revenue ideas. :)
Also did you see the white turbo mustang which sold on eBay? White with yellow interior. On card $600
Expensive Leo cars from India... amazing the prices they get. I've been told now that many of the Leo cars were only made in production numbers of the hundreds.
@@wtffor this mustang wasnt a leo, it was the normal production one, white with red tampos and GHO wheels. transitional interior
I didn't know there was that many variations
Ok ok ok are any of these squad cars FAST!!
80s police cars you hit keep
Canadian eh?🕵
Enjoyed from Ottawa.👍
That turquoise police car looks like a Indian leo
So glad I collect action figures and not Hotwheels. I would never be able to keep up with all the releases lol
Nice haul! It's a shame that you Tube isn't a sustainable source of income to at least supplement the hobby.
I guess I should go look at the 10 hot bird cars I have . I didn't see a blackwall version
Love those patrols...by the way the rivet on that hot bird with tang interior looks suspicious.
Thank you for your comment! I have checked and now just double-checked all the rivets for the Hot Birds in this video, including the tan interior variation Hot Bird, and they are all 100% original.
@@wtffor you welcome...i tell you cause i used to drill open hotwheels and many other brands to modify for down hill racing and most of the time i drill a little hole and used little screws to assemble it back but when have no screws i cut rivet from others cheap and common hotwheels to glue it with expoxy to were the drilled rivet was leaving it like how the factory one was,and that is very easy for me to do...but i saw the same work of others that leave the rivet too much off centered and turned...but there could be some missplacements even on the factory ones so congrats if you found the hot bird was not tricked.
You didn't mention it I don't believe but one of the hot Birds had a clear windshield and the rest of them were sort of Darker in tone what's up with that
Dads of HOT WHEELS.
Don't worry this subscribe button won't be touched and that bell will always be on. Stay safe and look forward to the next video. 👍👍👍👍
I always hated the light bar set up on the 1977 Hot Wheels police car, a.k.a., the generic 1977 Plymouth Fury in all but name...what they should have done was either did what Matchbox did with most of its variants of the 1979-1982 Ford LTD Crown Victoria police units, namely, make a red and blue trapezoidal light bar, or made an oval red, white, and blue light bar like the first two types of Tonka/Maisto police cars, along with adding some painted lights in the interior section of the police car that were red and blue, as well as made the front grille, the rear bumper lights, and front and back fenders, more detailed. Would not either set up be infinitely better than what Mattel did with that police car?
LOL i bid on that lot of Sheriff Patrol cars on Ebay a couple weeks ago and got out bid at the last minute
There was a lot of activity on that ebay lot... fun to hear you were a part of it too! It's exciting and nerve-racking all at the same time!
@@wtffor I wanted that leo Sheriff car for my collection bad but not that bad LOL
Hope you’ll still do the year by year vids, greatly enjoy your content
Thank you for your comment, I definitely will continue with the year-by-year videos... they are some of my favourite most fun ones to make! :)
Where do you buy your Plano cases from? What’s an average price for them? Thanks.
Walmart item name: Plano 5234 price $7
At 7:22 the variation is in the shape of the hood tempo 🙂
Same here!
I was an underbidder on those cop cars. The sherrif is a LEO India. I have it from Larry woods personal collection, there are two variations of it. Usual price is about 175-250 for that car. Hard to say the value of the Larry Wood one.
I am misssing one scorcher from having the complete set from the larry wood collection of all 24 in the baggies. Im missing hte red 55 chevy you bought. Would you be interested in trading for the same car, mint in the box still? Take care man, enjoy your videos, from a fellow canadian.
How did you pay $1000 for those!?!?!? 🤣 I paid $1 each brand new! (Yes, I'm messing with you, great haul!)
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Theres a white XT3 with blue canopy carded on ebay right now. $18.99
Sweet! Glad I got one already opened... maybe a carded collector will find it in time for their collection :)
Nice vídeo, i have une car the. You video, i'm from México, congratula ion, your Channel
Nice adds came rather pricey for variations?
