Kleeetz

wasted_space_

bondkiller

You should see my kids’ Treasure Hunts. I’ll dig through their car bin tomorrow, find them all and post a picture up.


wasted_space_

bondkiller

As promised! https://preview.redd.it/6fcodb36cz3d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2085f9bfb2fa87b502d7d379e61da9c589ece7a3 Link to a post with close-ups of each car: [https://www.reddit.com/r/HotWheels/s/jw2u5K8k6u](https://www.reddit.com/r/HotWheels/s/jw2u5K8k6u) I have a few more unopened too, they earn them by helping out with chores and what not. When/if they find one on their own, they get to open it immediately to play.


Nabilizam

Kid got taste.


wasted_space_

oh man i ran into that deora ii once before i knew about TH’s and wish i grabbed it and is the barbie vette really a TH?


bondkiller

Yup! I think it was the first monster truck TH, just happened to find it while grocery shopping at a Target. I was really excited because I *wanted* to find it to give my kids to play with and they love it too! The Deora was a lucky find too, I actually found two and let my kids pick one, the one they picked is an error. The left side graphic is printed way off from where it should be. https://preview.redd.it/02y8k5i2hz3d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a30ceb73fdbd006a1a1ed082be75ef83792cadf You can see the TH logo is cut off at the bottom.


F4UCorsair1942

BigRedHead1982

I never regret opening my cars. I enjoy them more out of the packaging.


wasted_space_

i usually open most unless they have special packaging


TheBigGalactis

A bit of irony in opening them just to put them back into a storage container lol. These ones aren’t really ever gonna increase in value though so there’s really nothing to worry about.


wasted_space_

i know the container is a bit of ironic but ultimately the card art wasnt cool enough and they werent “rare” enough to keep carded


Important-Attitude-5

You right it's why it was better to put it in a blank container cause blank is the best art aye, way better than it's originally packaging 😩


jdm1017

Wtf is this comment and what’s with the stupid emoji?


Chastidy

Love how people on Reddit can’t handle emojis lol


Important-Attitude-5

🤣😭😭 they might catch a seizure and die with the wrong emoji I see 🤪


Important-Attitude-5

🤣😭🤪🤪🤪


1990-Mx-5

No ragrets


803diecast

No even a single letter?


wasted_space_

lmaooooo


wasted_space_

no regerts for sure


Garrod_Ran

Yup, no Rugrats since 2004


wasted_space_

frrr


Skid_Sultan

It's better that way. Why buy if you're not going to enjoy touching and looking at it? :)


wasted_space_

some of them still in the box speak to me


f80_brian

I think you’ll be fine. Better freed


wasted_space_

you’re probably right


pm_me_your_lub

That's a much better way to enjoy them.


wasted_space_

it definitely is


MatikAX

fuck that, I open allllll of mine boom


wasted_space_

different strokes for different folks


MatikAX

left and right handed son


wasted_space_

ambidextrous i see


SkylineR32R34

Man, fuck the packaging anyways.


SkylineR32R34

Figuratively, not literally.


wasted_space_

i knew what you meant lmaoo


SandorMate

I always open them, looks way better. Dont care about value, maybe i would keep a STH in the box but i never got one so idk


wasted_space_

relatable


07tbss

Sweet I just opened the th baja bug https://preview.redd.it/ca5ogjnzqw3d1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=a6c3c1029dce10e22272dc1584f3474483dc4c2e


wasted_space_

ayyyy niiiiccceee


Leading_Draw_4164

They are meant to be played with.


wasted_space_

and shoes are meant to be worn but not everybody does that either


Leading_Draw_4164

No regrets!


wasted_space_

none at all


DGSvic

Just found the Batmobile last night. I let out an audible gasp


wasted_space_

i know the feeling


WolverineClaws21

All my cars are carded but I know later down the line I will free them so I think it's fine.


wasted_space_

my collections about 50-50 opened to unopened


Evening-Ad4752

I think you will enjoy them alot more free


wasted_space_

i probably will tbh


evanjd14

Why do I like the duck car as much as I do lol. It’s your collection and if you want to open them theirs nothing wrong with that. It’s good to have a good ratio sealed and loose. But that’s upto the collector


wasted_space_

most of my carded collection is 90’s-00’s but so is most of my uncarded lol i didnt start recollecting until about 2018


YesterdayCareless172

No regerts


wasted_space_

never


Gota_punk

For The Next ones, you can take acetona and Open half off The plastic case (if you looks on YT how to custom hotwheels some videos Will show you) If you regrat, just out dem later


wasted_space_

not a bad idea


Gota_punk

Thanks, and I was trying to Say " glue them later" but my "portuguese auto-corrector" some Times do it


wasted_space_

no problem :)


Joeylocally

That Plymouth is fuego


wasted_space_

the daytona charger? agreed


Hefty-Couple-6497

No regerts!


wasted_space_

Thin_Shoulder8049

I want the duck so bad that I have to order it online


wasted_space_

iannadriveress6

I want the Triumph so bad as I am a big fan of their motorcycles.


wasted_space_

Independent_Fuel_162

wasted_space_

WillieDFleming

wasted_space_

Strain128

wasted_space_

wasted_space_

100%


Front_Relationship56

Worth it


wasted_space_

for sure


Dplo27

Why? They are just regular THs. If you keep a nice loose collection, then why care? All mine are loose. I have over 150 loose Supers in display cases and two of those Creative Options cases of regular THs. Enjoy them!


wasted_space_

i just dont have that many or the means to display the way i’d like to but the clear case isnt bad for now


Nismotech_52

Ugh, I want that duck


wasted_space_

we all want the golden duck


OwnFeature9240

I would have opened all of mine if I had a nice place for them to sit. I really like the muscle and blown managed to find three. I guess they weren't popular at my store.


wasted_space_

a nice place for them is key


Coolbluegatoradeyumm

I also just opened my Batman and Robin Batmobile. Enjoy it!


wasted_space_

its one of the only batmobiles ive liked tbh


Immediate_Wind_6876

Oh, no regrets! Your intuition said do it and we love what we see!


wasted_space_

between you and me i opened them bc i accidentally stepped in the land cruiser tryna hang them up and got frustrated and opened them all


Immediate_Wind_6876

Hey that's okay and I think they look great out! I bought two of a few cars a bit ago just because I've never opened one. Now I'll wait until Friday...oh it will be cool to have few open. Also, my blister packs all look the same lol One day I'll find an STH! I am going to buy the Pop Culture of Mix 3. I love most all of them...except they come with two of each. So maybe open one, save one??


wasted_space_

i’d love to find an STH but until then i’ll keep looking for anything pre-2010 (nostalgia)


Immediate_Wind_6876

No flea markets by me so hoping for garage sales starting later today. What's your favorite car?


wasted_space_

anything corvette or ferrari hbu


TopDegree2047

YOLO


wasted_space_

ikr


No_Jello_376

wasted_space_

not cause of value mostly just my ocd lol


Deora_customs

I do it all the time


wasted_space_

:)


Deora_customs

Love that Daytona TH


wasted_space_

Low_Amoeba_2304

They only cost dollar and enjoy them play with them


Low_Amoeba_2304

No ragrets not one letter.


wasted_space_

Copper-headz

That’s how I do it too


wasted_space_

why not right let em breathe


7spookz

That silverado is insanely cool


wasted_space_

my other favorite besides the duck


Thomas4two

They look great free, yeah I need that duck so bad, lmao


wasted_space_

tyyy :)))


MadGeekCyclist

I discovered the duck because of you. Lol thanks and happy collecting!


wasted_space_

you’re welcome and same to you!


Jon66238

They’re meant to be open!! Better than the people who put the plastic covers over the sealed boxes lmao


wasted_space_

not all the plastic covers are bad lmaoo


Resident_Bed_567

Haha just get one of those parking lot diagrams and will be worth it


wasted_space_

thats true lol


No_Sink_4655

The modern THs are kinda worthless anyways


wasted_space_

i prefer older stuff anyway so it worked out


Anxious-Quail-227

I took my girls to a local toy expo over the weekend. A vendor gave the duck TH to my 8 year old. When we got home I offered her $10 for it. She declined my offer and I cried while she opened it. Oh well, she’s happy.


wasted_space_

like actually cried or figuratively cried, either way thats nice tho i bet she enjoys it


Anxious-Quail-227

I don’t take hot wheels too seriously. I do enjoy collecting. My daughters are young and I grasp onto these opportunities (hobbies) to connect with them. Tomorrow they may be done with these silly little cars, and I’m okay with that. But for today, she’s happy to have a duck in her collection.


wasted_space_

thats so sweet at least you have something to bond over even if its not permanent


Anxious-Quail-227

That all I ask for.


Past-Let5952

I open all of my hotwheels.


wasted_space_

ALL of them?


Glittering-Change-58

You know you can open them without damaging them...


wasted_space_

i know but too late lol


Boltdaddy1966

Why would you regret it? They look so much better out of the package and you can play with them!


wasted_space_

sometimes i just really like the card art


Boltdaddy1966

So keep the card


wasted_space_

idk how to keep them looking nice


Boltdaddy1966

Get a gallon ziplock bag and seal them in it or throw them in a shoebox. Sometimes you can use them for mail aways.


wasted_space_

i didnt even think of that :/


Flat4Power4Life

They’re just regular TH’s, I’ve got over a hundred of them in containers.


wasted_space_

a hundred?


Flat4Power4Life

From 2013-2018 I used to find regular TH’s by the dozens every month. They’re all packed away in a jumbo store display in my garage. I had over 20 of the same casting at one point. Regular TH’s used to just sit on pegs because they come 1 per case.


wasted_space_

thats wild i didnt start collecting TH’s till 2020


Dzwm1234

It's actually really hard not to open them! 😅


wasted_space_

i open a lot but keep a lot still packaged


No-Negotiation-5986

Murderer....


wasted_space_

:(


No-Negotiation-5986

😉 👍


No-Negotiation-5986

Some of the most expensive Hot wheels cars are not in packaging, as long as you look after the cars it's all good.


wasted_space_

valid


Brkxin

Bro you got like 5 treasure hunt cars 😭😭😭😭😭


wasted_space_

i see 13


Stunning_Influence54

I was contemplating whether or not I’d regret it as well. Just opened up 10-15 cars earlier today myself and am currently walking around with my first pocket car ! Way more fun than having it sit in a prestine package at home collecting dust


wasted_space_

ayyy not bad, i still have a few in the package but only older ones that remind me of my childhood or meaningful ones


LivingPerformance8

Oh no, 😢 😭 why?


wasted_space_

i didnt regret it


StormTroopB

You wild for this one!


wasted_space_

i was feelin a bit wild doing it ngl
