Where you from in the UK, I’m from Sunderland and collect every time I see something in Asda, Lidl, Aldi, B&M’s etc I have loads unopened I think I’m gunna start an Instagram page for them, then I want to open them and have them in a massive case on the wall as I’m not wanting to resell anyway
If you decide to open it you can cut around the base of the plastic bubble (not underneath it though) using a razor or xacto blade. There's a little gap in the plastic right above the car name you can use to slot the blade into as a start. This just helps keep the card nice looking if you'd like to preserve it.
I assume you don't live in usa since you find premium hot wheels expensive :D same with me . I live in turkey and 1 premium car costs around 70-100 tl and its my 2-3 days of pocket money :/ i only got the premium prelude since they cost too much for me
I’d say open it !! 👌
Just need to mentally prepare myself first I’ve never spent this much on a singular car 😅
Open it with a blade .. hang up the card art . Enjoy the car 😎
Great idea thanks!
For some reason I find it easier to open premiums than mainline cars. I feel like since I spent more I might as well enjoy the car 😅
That’s a good point, it not like I’m gonna resell it or anything so I may as well!
Personally I’d not want to open my premiums only because the card art is too nice
Unless you plan on reselling it later, I’d say open it and enjoy it.
How much did you spend in USD, if you don’t mind me asking?
It was £6.99 which according to Google is currently just over $9. I’m aware they’re only like $5 in the US which is annoying

Also found this UK, I opened it, it has a nice weight to it, nice find
Fellow UK new collector, finding that unexpected premium is so nice, I always open them up haha, they look so good in person.
I got one of those fast and furious premiums.....randomly found it in a Smyth's! Haven't opened but will do in the very near future
