@@Chevygang23LT I totally understand, that’s where I was two years ago. I even deactivated my Facebook account, bcuz I got tired of seeing people posting a shopping cart full of the same castings literally taking everything off the pegs. I grew up in the 70s with Hot Wheels and started collecting again after realizing that my mom had kept my HW when I was a kid. People forget that they’re (mainlines) are a child’s toy first. I’m just glad that I didn’t have grown men taking all the HWs just to make a few bucks. There’s people that don’t even collect doing this just bcuz of the money. There’s more scalpers than collectors. The 5 accounts per household is meant if there’s multiple collectors in a household, not for 1 person to have 5 accounts. HW is actually trying to find ways to discourage this. I heard they were thinking about one item per credit or debit account. What helped me was that I stopped looking for HW like I was, and believe it or not, I’m having better luck. I don’t collect for monetary reasons and after having a conversation with Bruce Pascal, I open and display mine. At the most I may get 2 of the same casting, 1 to open and 1 to keep carded. It depends on the casting. Ever since I got my iPhone, I’ve been fortunate to get the RLCs that I wanted. I don’t go for ones that I don’t like. People say yeah but you could trade for one that you really want, but I look at it like I don’t want to take it out of someone else’s hands that may really want it. Idk, that’s just me.
@@Chevygang23LT yup just tried to buy the red rat RLC and sold out within the hour. I’m done. Just canceled my RLC subscription and told Mattel the reasons why. I’m sure they don’t care .
The Z Proto is actually a trim level of the new Z and not the actual prototype. They're not making many of them and they're all based upon the Green-Yellow prototype model with gold wheels. Just wanted to point that out, great video as always.
Good tips. Its really all within how quick you are with the buying process. The only downfall may be the cache part or proving ones not a bot. Personally I havent had issues with that part.
Nice tips. But I’m sour on RLC. I think their custom service sucks! If they are gonna operate a business. They need to do a better job. A good working web site for one. And having to wait for a product on a “pre-order” for a year. That’s ridiculous!! After 3 yrs as a member. I’m moving on.
Gonna get the e30 and ryu s2k in the mail soon which I’m stoked about, from what I’ve been seeing leaks wise the rest of the year and next years rlc is looking good 🤞
I have 1 account without bots and I’ve gotten every RLC this year except for the Bathing Ape 300SL and the STH 2021 set which got kicked out of my cart
I honestly thank you for the advice. I definitely never tried having 5 accounts before but then again I never thought it was morally acceptable to have that many. That was until you said Mattel says it's actually ok to have 5 in your household. I was always frustrated and could never get a single RLC car so I gave up the subscription and thumbed my nose at it. Personally, I still have some animosity towards Mattel on RLC cars but you alleviated some of that. Thanks.
What if everyone has 5 accounts and there are 10,000 items? Say there are 10,000 accounts (made up number). That would mean 50,000 accounts, of which only 10,000 are not duplicates, would be in competition for 10,000 cars. The more people join and make 5 accounts, the greater the competition exponentially. I'm new to this and am trying to wrap my head around it. We used to play with Hot Wheels in the 1960s.
Bots buy up hard to get items in a fraction of a second. I don’t care if you have 500 accounts. When you click “buy now” at the opening bell & it says “sold out” , you know the bots got them. Nobody types that fast
They don't give a shit if its a bot ordering it, when you have a car go up for sale and there's 30,000 available say at 25$ and its sold out in Less than 5 min $750,000 + S&H is a pretty damn good day!
@@DieCashCars at $25 to $30 a pop it can add up, but I’ll only buy the RCL exclusive that are only available to members. The 52 dodge holiday pickup is coming next week
Why it’s so hard to buy on Mattel creation’s exclusive? I got on right at 9:00 and they put me on a 4 minute wait to buy the Honda integra type R today and when i hit the pay button it was already sold out?
I have a question, ordered my first redline car, do they normally just come in a box with like literally no other protection? Such as wrap or peanuts??and if something is damaged can we complain to Mattel or??
I mean if you have 5 acc juss go look at yourself, 1 acc should be enough 2 it's all you need, honestly you keep 1 and you sell or trade the other and literally make the money back, this can't be a business because it's already a mattel business. But of course resellers gon say I'm stupid or crazy 🤪.
Yea... I'm just gonna buy them for the extra $10 🤷♂️not worth the price of getting 5 accounts and having to fight bots especially if I only want 1-2 specific models.
This whole system is so toxic, 5 accounts is an insane high entry level. But what you expect when everyone is in it for the investment value. This hobby is dead.
Does your wife give you the eye roll when you tell her it’s an RLC day? Lol ask me how I know. Edit: I see you picked up another chameleon Datsun. Nice
Ha, our wives may be related 😅 But I will say she gets pretty competitive about it, and always gets checked out before I do….should ask her what her “secret” is 🤔
@@DieCashCars same here, she also is the one that finds the best stuff on the pegs somehow. Of course she knows to call me from the diecast aisle to tell her what to look for. 🤣
Fighting over cars is not collecting, its called hording. Creating instant value in cars will end up with zero value in the future. Why bother with this stuff when you can just collect real redlines that have been established for a long time now.
So I’m not totally against people having 5 accounts but if people are using them just to buy and resale to make money. It’s wrong
Agreed or if bots are involved
It’s ruining the hobby
@@c.c.1070 so it’s been 6 months since my comment and I have almost stopped collecting. You are correct!

I tore one apart and made it cool. And it will be for sale hahaha.

This was a Great Vid 👍 we thoroughly enjoyed it!! 😉
Lol I LOVE the pink Blown Delivery, and the Custom Corvette 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Damn..that tailgate just popping off..
🤣
It's all fun and games for others helping out purchase until we have to get up at 2am in Aus 😅

Still toxic
I’ve been collecting hot wheels from Walmart for 19 years and never even heard of this only 10 dollars a year? Hell yea
hey great vid😃 cool rlc

I snagged the outlaw this morning 😅!!!
Welcome back buddy
i just bought a RLC While listening to this video in the background
😅 motivation for you brother ✊
@@DieCashCars yea lol. I Bought the willys holiday car
Just joined today! wanted to know how do you know when’s the new rlc car gonna release?
Admit it, the only cars people want are the ones the go way up in value and has almost nothing to do with what the car looks like.
One last piece of advice, if you type with 2 fingers, you’re gonna have a rough experience on RLC
I caught the skyline restock it just shipped today
Lucky!
😂😂😂 sorry that tail gate had me laughing
Lol I don’t know my own strength 💪
Are these Mattel creations RLC hot wheels worth collecting???
Yea, but I wouldn’t say you have to buy all of the releases. Just the ones you like and get a feel for the market which are going to sell out quick
@@DieCashCars at $25 to $30 a pop it can add up, but I’ll only buy the RCL exclusive that are only available to members. The 52 dodge holiday pickup is coming next week
Great vids keep it up
Long long time I waiting to receive every peace-1 month take for delivery.
Chevy 454 really hot, want to get my asap😗. Do you know how many produced??
And on top of that they should have cars ready to ship now not a year later people move
I just got the 2023 rlc 72 custom datsun 240Z. Anybody know how many are being produced?
I would guess in the /30k range
Why it’s so hard to buy on Mattel creation’s exclusive? I got on right at 9:00 and they put me on a 4 minute wait to buy the Honda integra type R today and when i hit the pay button it was already sold out?
Very high competition on this one 😞
@@DieCashCars does using Shop Pay app help? Because I just used my regular credit card which was slow and required me to type in all the information
I have a question, ordered my first redline car, do they normally just come in a box with like literally no other protection? Such as wrap or peanuts??and if something is damaged can we complain to Mattel or??
So, dumb question. How do you add emails to your account? There are a few of us that collect in my house.
I mean if you have 5 acc juss go look at yourself, 1 acc should be enough 2 it's all you need, honestly you keep 1 and you sell or trade the other and literally make the money back, this can't be a business because it's already a mattel business. But of course resellers gon say I'm stupid or crazy 🤪.
Is it worth joining the RLC?
Absolutely
@@DieCashCarsbut if you live oustide america, the shipping is cost more than the car 😂
How do I make another account
Rate my haul: Mountain drifters Chase and 2014 Datsun super for 350 shippped+ tax
I’d say 7 out of 10, 510 super is about $250 and er34 is going for $120.
@@DieCashCars good to hear. Thanks
Good pick ups though, the 510 is at a low right now, which should mean a good buy. And the er34 is on the rise, went up faster than I thought…
@@DieCashCars it seems like there are a lot of 510s on the market I bet after some of them clear up and sell it’ll creep back up to the 300 mark

I stopped looking for mainlines bcuz RLCs are easier to get.
Dam they shipping them chevys good
GT mini cars are better than Hot Wheels RLC.
Tomica is better than Hot Wheels.
If you have 5 accounts do you use 5 computers. Sorry im not buying 5 accounts.
Swap ya something for a Honda sth

I think you just only be able to have 1 account. So people can get one at least. It’s people like you that ruin stuff!
🤣
for me I can't afford to buy anything like the r l c.club.its out ove my price range.
