Modern Classics

The original Hot Wheels Redlines series can never be bettered for me, but the recent releases of the Hot Wheels ranges occasionally still hold the odd surprise. What I always loved about the Mattel designs were the radical shapes and unusual elements added tot he cars. Some of the designs were futuristic, which always caught my eye, but others were asymetrical or just downright weird. The models above show this thinking still persists, with the large solar panel, internal fan and completely lop sided design of the Mid-Evil race car.

Perhaps taking a cue from the defunct Hot Birds line, the new ranges sometimes include planes and copters which are always a big draw for me too.
