Hotwheels Model S

[Dithermaster]

My wife is going to win the bounty, and it took her all of 30 seconds: $3.69 on Amazon. At that price I had her get two (one to open <g>).

Stop & Shop. $1 each this week. My granddaughters (5 & 4) love to play with toy cars!

Just got the blue "Power Grabs" Matchbox Model S:

This all seems backward. Shouldn't the Hot Wheels modern-equivalent-of-Sizzlers for Tesla cars run on tiny little gasoline engines?

My wife found one of these today at Toys 'R Us...

I still haven't been able to find one of the grey ones. I've found lots of red and blue both Matchbox and Hot Wheels though...

Notice the inauthentic skid marks that you'd never get with Tesla traction control

Correction, she found four of them...

Haha, I like the supercharged Volt with a giant engine sticking out of the hood on the same page ... where's the "green" in that "green speed?"

I just ordered the blue Matchbox Model S. I've already got the red, and the red hot wheels. I just think the Matchbox versions look so much nicer (realistic).

Too true. The Hotwheels edition has a giant spoiler on the back, which kind of ruins the otherwise great replica. I wonder if the refreshed version will do away with it?

Or if we get the new nose!

I agree the Hotwheels are cartoonish ... the Matchbox are better.

not only the spoiler, but all the lines and angles are just a little "off"

Wow, the Hotwheels version is awful...

I've been passing these out as compensation to people letting me yap about Teslas.
I think I've probably given away a hundred or so.

How'd you manage to get so many of them?

Ebay has some large packs of them. I have seen up to 100 before.

Thanks Erik
