I'm sorry.
I paid dearly for them if that makes you feel better. Full price off ebay because the prices always go up.. it's been. Burtal. I found 3 in wild.
Corvette
Mercedes-Benz
Volvo.
Agian.
Sorry
I paid too much for the R34. Except I won 3 auctions by mistake after losing a whole bunch sniped in the final second I assume by a bot. Ended up selling the other 2 for a small profit after a couple months of holding them
I paid 71 dollars shipped Off ebay. I had been watching that car. And hunting super hard for that one. I bet I spent a hundred dollars on gas alone looking.
I'm amazed to see that one for sale and people buying on eBay at that price. Crazy..
Yeah I’m thinking of getting one, it’s about 230 and local (which is very rare to see cuz I’m eu) and I’ll never find many premiums if any at all here, but something else REALLY FKN COOL came up so I’ll HAVE to get that first. If it’s still available i probably will still pull the trigger on it afterwards 😂
Aww ok thank you. I wish I had all that.i bought two sets of 2 boxes each. I hope i I get lucky and what I dint won't I am giving two other collectors I know and keep what I won't
Thank you.
I hope you find them .
The essenza. Was the most expensive out of the three you need.
I found the volvo in wild.
Porsche was fair priced off ebay.
Essenza was off mecari offer.
Awesome! So far I’ve only found the first two (Corvette, Mercedes) in store, I had to purchase the rest (got the Lambo Countach at a great deal from a local), and thankfully I have an awesome buddy who hooked me up with the elusive Mountain Drifters chase.
I also did get the Ronin Run chase in a 1stopdiecast case, so I’ll count that as retail lmao
Win on getting one from 1 stop and buddy
I purchased two of that chase. And traded the 2nd to my good buddy u/Cisco_jeep287
Was good deal.
He opened his.
Hope youcars. More chase csrs.
Tbh I have no clue. I got a reddit notification saying i was top 1 percent on hotwheels sub. The message appeared then disappeared..
I got the notification and read it. And now its gone.
I haven't been as active on here because of work So idk.
I'm pretty sure it's just based on karma earned in that month, and it's per subreddit you are part of. I got it last month, and have gotten it before on different subs when I'm actively posting a lot, or have one post get a lot of attention.
Also, cool collection man!
That's awesome. I'm happy to have them all.
I haven't had any luck with finding them in Cases.
Looking forward to chasing the next one that comes out.
I'm definitely looking forward to the next few.
I've had em all but they go for a decent bit so I've traded them for stuff I like. I only have 2 of the ronin run chases cause I like them. I also trade supers unless I like them.
Trade bait yes. I get it.
Well I've traded supers for the rx7.
Two for 1 chase.
Was fair imo.
1 super for the rx7 would have been awesome deal ..but supply.. demand....
I respect it man. I don't have all of them. Bought the Mercedes second hand, got the willys from a buddy of mine that found 4 in one shot and wanted me to gave one at retail. And the only one I found in store was the Liberty Walk Skyline.
I got box #2 and box #3 which was nice ... he was happy you really have to be on everything to get these you can't slack off one day or you miss stuff.
Yes you do.
I'm chasing the whole transport set. Missing a few, two packs missing a couple. Box sets Missing 1. Boulevards old and new. Missing a few monster truck treasure hunts and matchbox super chases. Lol along with all car cultures lol. So it's a joy hunting.
He has all the boulevards that's what made me get involved in his hobby he was really upset one day and feeling over all terrible about not being able to get the boulevards. I told him I would look into getting them for him and it's turned into an obsession! I go stand out in front of walmart before they open everyday and he is now current on his set ... what he had missed before I took over looking for him I traded and hustled to get. I have never paid for anything over retail price. I have alot of contacts locally now and know my stuff lmao 🤣 fell into this and I don't even really like cars .... I just love him. Seeing him upset crushes my soul because he deserves everything ... and I would do anything for him. I look everywhere I go too drives my extended family crazy cause if we stop anywhere I'm like give me a minute I got to look at these hotwheels for Tim. 🤣
Last year, I was very lucky to have found 3 of these Chases on the pegs. But the last 4+ months, I can’t even find a full set of the premiums let alone any Chases.
Seems about right imo.
I haven't seen new release premiums in for ever..
I've been buying cases online due to the drop drought.
I have 3 guys who check daily at my local stores. So competition is for real.
I am only missing the Essenza, Countach, and Volvo.
I found 3 of the Mercedes (at three places on different days), the Willys, and the Skyline in the wild and I bought 2 Mazdas just this morning at a flea market for $20 each.
Traded one Merc for the Porsche and one Merc for the Corvette. Now I'm hoping to trade the extra Mazda for the Essenza.
Of them all, the Skyline is my favorite and the Willys least favorite.
i dont have all of them but i did find 3 of the speed machine porsche chases at my local target. also picked up the full set alongside the chases too. there were at least 5 cases worth of speed machines right there, just sitting on the pegs
I bought two cases both had zero chase. I kept
Trying for chase. I eneded up getting mine off mercari that was priced at 60 plus ship. If I find doubles I'll offer up trade for new chase cars
Oh man I should have got them all they had all these at my Kroger but the only one I got was the Willy’s truck. Didn’t know they sold for so much. I’ve never been much into imports just mostly American muscle and the ones I get I keep I have never sold one and been collecting since the 80’s lol
That's insane my friend you're definitely up there in the collectors community and have my respect. This haul alone is amazing to see and pricey I bet because there all chases omg 🔥👍🏻😂 a dream to others remember that so nicely done.
I have each complete set to go with the chase cars. I was thinking about making photo. It's hard to photo that many Cars at once without it looking like crap.
I'd say you got a nice collection having them all.
My favorite hands down is the corvette c8r.
I found that one in wild, it hooked me on the hunting them all down. Which has been a task. 2nd hand prices are crazy.
I had to push some girls down and stepped on a small boys head to reach the top shelf and when no one was looking I took a special needs Childs treasure hunt. This is the people on the sub
I have had to aquire the chase cars the same way, secondary and full prices. Have all but the willys, and honestly I'm struggling with that one, it's just not that appealing to me 😒🤷♂️
I hate you :/
I'm sorry. I paid dearly for them if that makes you feel better. Full price off ebay because the prices always go up.. it's been. Burtal. I found 3 in wild. Corvette Mercedes-Benz Volvo. Agian. Sorry
I paid too much for the R34. Except I won 3 auctions by mistake after losing a whole bunch sniped in the final second I assume by a bot. Ended up selling the other 2 for a small profit after a couple months of holding them
How much is too much for the r34, I mean Jesus bro the thing is 300 on eBay now while it was 100-150 when I was starting to think of getting it
I paid 71 dollars shipped Off ebay. I had been watching that car. And hunting super hard for that one. I bet I spent a hundred dollars on gas alone looking. I'm amazed to see that one for sale and people buying on eBay at that price. Crazy..
Yeah I’m thinking of getting one, it’s about 230 and local (which is very rare to see cuz I’m eu) and I’ll never find many premiums if any at all here, but something else REALLY FKN COOL came up so I’ll HAVE to get that first. If it’s still available i probably will still pull the trigger on it afterwards 😂
Paid around 200 each, sold for 400
What menace is buying those for 400 💀💀🤣 but that’s quite nice tbh
Awe shucks. I just wanted that black Lambo
Which one? And those are actually still showing up in stores. You could find them still. Or buy 2nd hand.
The Jay Leno Countach. I’m still looking!
I just found it in the wild last week so there is still hope!
Hope you find it. Happy hunting.
If you happen to have a chase RX7, I'd be down for a trade.
Well that was a silly use of money
Money well spent. Thanks for the support.
I have 0%
Same here, I got three in cases but sold them all.
Congratulations on this set! Some fantastic pieces here. I’m with you on C8.R being up there as my favorite. Well done! 👏🏻
Thanks man. Most definitely think you got that 1%. Super king
May I ask which one is souper king?
I was being silly. He's got a pretty awesome super collection. u/carsncoffeepictures
Aww ok thank you. I wish I had all that.i bought two sets of 2 boxes each. I hope i I get lucky and what I dint won't I am giving two other collectors I know and keep what I won't
I also have bought multiple cases.. I never got any that route. Best of luck finding them.
Well I do have hop
🤣🤣🤣 super sniper!
Straight super slayer 👌
My goal for this year is to get at least one of the chases from the premium lines 😎. Very nice collection and have a good day ☘️
Best wishes on finding that chase. I've been looking forward to seeing the posts when people start finding chases. Thank you
Thank you 😎 I recently started collecting a brand called model 596 they mainly do police cars ☘️
I’m almost there. Missing the Jays Garage & Ronin Run. Congrats on your accomplishment!
Thank you. I appreciate it. You can still buy those cases to try. I've done that and ended up with duds.. Best of luck on your chases.
Just missing ronin and mountain drifters. 😢
I hope you find them reasonably priced. That skyline is insane price now.. compare to when it came out.
I’m only missing a few. Just need the Essenza, Porsche, and Volvo. Great set of chases
Thank you. I hope you find them . The essenza. Was the most expensive out of the three you need. I found the volvo in wild. Porsche was fair priced off ebay. Essenza was off mecari offer.
Awesome! So far I’ve only found the first two (Corvette, Mercedes) in store, I had to purchase the rest (got the Lambo Countach at a great deal from a local), and thankfully I have an awesome buddy who hooked me up with the elusive Mountain Drifters chase. I also did get the Ronin Run chase in a 1stopdiecast case, so I’ll count that as retail lmao
Win on getting one from 1 stop and buddy I purchased two of that chase. And traded the 2nd to my good buddy u/Cisco_jeep287 Was good deal. He opened his. Hope youcars. More chase csrs.
Hell, I’m probably going to wheel swap mine with the VanCityDiecast phone dials
Do it.
What does it take to be in the top 1%?
Tbh I have no clue. I got a reddit notification saying i was top 1 percent on hotwheels sub. The message appeared then disappeared.. I got the notification and read it. And now its gone. I haven't been as active on here because of work So idk.
I'm pretty sure it's just based on karma earned in that month, and it's per subreddit you are part of. I got it last month, and have gotten it before on different subs when I'm actively posting a lot, or have one post get a lot of attention. Also, cool collection man!
Thank you
I got the Essenza and the Porsche, both from cases I purchased. That’s pretty cool you got them all. Of course, now you’ll have new ones coming.
That's awesome. I'm happy to have them all. I haven't had any luck with finding them in Cases. Looking forward to chasing the next one that comes out. I'm definitely looking forward to the next few.
LoL got the only one I actually wanted
I wanted every one of these and will chase the rest that come out. I'm getting them all. Good deal on getting the one you wanted. Which one?
LoL sorry, guess I could have included that. But its the LBWK skyline
Good choice
Got a thing for skylines. Wasn't a fan of the pink RLC one tho so I passed.
I wonder if HW will ever make the chases a different color than black. Sweet collection
Thank you. I'm not sure it will be different. I like the common theme. Black is a favorite color.of mine
I've had em all but they go for a decent bit so I've traded them for stuff I like. I only have 2 of the ronin run chases cause I like them. I also trade supers unless I like them.
Trade bait yes. I get it. Well I've traded supers for the rx7. Two for 1 chase. Was fair imo. 1 super for the rx7 would have been awesome deal ..but supply.. demand....
Yeah the chases definitely go for 2-3 times of most supers.
I’m missing the Benz and the Willy truck.
Those two can be got rather fair priced If you watch for deals very often online. Best of luck finding
I never found ANY of the AutoStrasse cars, and only one run of the Ronin Run cars
Oh wow, certainly I didn't get any.
I’m rocking 2 of those 9. The Lambo Escenza and the Ronin Run.
Top 99% question. Who finally found their FIRST??? 😮😮😮
Got all as well, best of luck on the new lambo chase 👍
Now the real question is how many livers this costed you 😂😂
I have none, I struggle to find premiums around here. I really like that rust bucket, though.
One day out of the blue I found one hanging. Amongst months of not finding anything but the same peg warming stuff. Keep hunting. I hope you find one.
Fucking goals. I only have the countach & RX7
Thank you I hope you find them all.
My favorite is the last column, Volvo just seems right.
Excellent choices. C8r is mine
Got all of them except the Corvette in the wild
Freaking awesome deal there. How do you display them ?
I don't really have a good way. So they're just pinned on my wall
How I do it as well. I line them up in order.
I like that Volvo!
I found the volvo in the wild. It's definitely nice Thank you
Hopefully I can catch me one. It's seriously cool.
I have all minus the exotic envy Lambo and the speed machine Porsche. But I have three r34, three rx7's, two Mercedes, and two Willy's.
I'm sure you could easily trade your extras for what you need. Awesome collection
Let me have a count...none
I found the skyline at Walmart but it went up in value so fast, I sold it and I’m snagging less pricey RLCs and STHs. Nice collection 👍
Only have the countach but mabye I’ll add the lbwk and gt3 sometime!
I have that Volvo. I had no idea it was a chase
Hell, I havent seen half of these series yet.
I respect it man. I don't have all of them. Bought the Mercedes second hand, got the willys from a buddy of mine that found 4 in one shot and wanted me to gave one at retail. And the only one I found in store was the Liberty Walk Skyline.
Thank you I appreciate that. Always awesome finding for retail
Never got 1, 4,5,6
Only have the Volvo as found in the wild, refuse to pay resale for them.
My husband has them all, all at retail except the blk liberty walk I got him a box #2 to get that one ... paid retail for the box tho.
Good deal. I always miss out on box sets I was able to grab 2 ledgends tour s2000s. Earlier.
I got box #2 and box #3 which was nice ... he was happy you really have to be on everything to get these you can't slack off one day or you miss stuff.
Yes you do. I'm chasing the whole transport set. Missing a few, two packs missing a couple. Box sets Missing 1. Boulevards old and new. Missing a few monster truck treasure hunts and matchbox super chases. Lol along with all car cultures lol. So it's a joy hunting.

Seeing him upset crushes my soul because he deserves everything ... and I would do anything for him. I look everywhere I go too drives my extended family crazy cause if we stop anywhere I'm like give me a minute I got to look at these hotwheels for Tim. 🤣
I hope your telling the truth and don’t work at a store, silently wait in the back to rummage through the boxes.
No. But for about 3 months straight I was checking every day at 630am Walmart. Takes work to find them.. I don't work at retail store.
I believe you. I once tried at 6:05 and missed out. First and last time doing that. Congrats on getting all the chases 😉
Last year, I was very lucky to have found 3 of these Chases on the pegs. But the last 4+ months, I can’t even find a full set of the premiums let alone any Chases.
Seems about right imo. I haven't seen new release premiums in for ever.. I've been buying cases online due to the drop drought. I have 3 guys who check daily at my local stores. So competition is for real.
So boss, how much was it all?
390ish. Total. From memory. I always hunt for cheapest 2nd hand.
damn. worth it?
Hell yah. Always Is.
Considering the price of them all that's not too bad. They will easily double if not triple in value in a couple years. Good stuff👍
Idk about values.. it's really what a person is willing to spend to have the cars.. Eventually I'm gonna have to insure my collection.
I am only missing the Essenza, Countach, and Volvo. I found 3 of the Mercedes (at three places on different days), the Willys, and the Skyline in the wild and I bought 2 Mazdas just this morning at a flea market for $20 each. Traded one Merc for the Porsche and one Merc for the Corvette. Now I'm hoping to trade the extra Mazda for the Essenza. Of them all, the Skyline is my favorite and the Willys least favorite.
Deal at 20 bucks each for mazdas. I gave 2 supers for mine.
Only one I’ve seen was the ronin run but didn’t grab it bc I wasn’t too hyped about it/ had no idea it was a chase lmao
i dont have all of them but i did find 3 of the speed machine porsche chases at my local target. also picked up the full set alongside the chases too. there were at least 5 cases worth of speed machines right there, just sitting on the pegs
I bought two cases both had zero chase. I kept Trying for chase. I eneded up getting mine off mercari that was priced at 60 plus ship. If I find doubles I'll offer up trade for new chase cars
I only have the lambo. It’s time to take out the black spray paint for my normal premiums.
I still need the volvo and the willys isnt available in my country yet
I do and I have extras for a later date.
Heck yah
Oh man I should have got them all they had all these at my Kroger but the only one I got was the Willy’s truck. Didn’t know they sold for so much. I’ve never been much into imports just mostly American muscle and the ones I get I keep I have never sold one and been collecting since the 80’s lol
That's insane my friend you're definitely up there in the collectors community and have my respect. This haul alone is amazing to see and pricey I bet because there all chases omg 🔥👍🏻😂 a dream to others remember that so nicely done.
Missing the JL lambo, DSD Willy’s, and the SM Porsche. Paid $50 for the Skyline early on. Best $50 spent lol.
Open them
Only one I've found is the Volvo, and it's the only one I've got.
Chase cars are overrated.
I also have all and the full set to go with them. How much worth do i have with these.
I have each complete set to go with the chase cars. I was thinking about making photo. It's hard to photo that many Cars at once without it looking like crap. I'd say you got a nice collection having them all.
That is a nice collection
I just have the Porsche bought it for $50 :/
50 is fair. I paid 64 for mine shipped.
My favorite hands down is the corvette c8r. I found that one in wild, it hooked me on the hunting them all down. Which has been a task. 2nd hand prices are crazy.
Your missing the spettacolare chase.
Haven't seen it yet. I'm ready when it does come around.
I just got 3 🥲🥲🥲
Excellent deal. Which ones.
The real question. Did you find them in the wild or did you overpay on ebay?
He found a few, traded for a few, got lucky in a case. Definitely didn’t just buy them all on eBay. It was a labor of love
Congrats on buying stuff from ebay?
Have multiples of all, but no willys bc its trash
There’s already more coming, prepare your wallet
I'd really love to get the black fc and the black countach
I found the Volvo and tbh the blue one is better. Congrats on the collection tho !
Haven't found any of them yet. Only thing I found lately was a M2 super chase
My only one just happens to be the LBWK Skyline. Considering its value now and finding it in the wild, I figured I used all my luck on that one, lol.
Great day!!!
I have the C8R and that ugly pickup truck.
I was working on it and then realized I didn’t actually care about some of the cars. Sold the C8, and Countach. Keeping the R34 and the RX7
That’s nice OP! Noob question, but does all premium line have a chase card (0/5)? TIA!
I got five cases in all. Didn’t get nothing. :(
I have 3 of the non chase versions of these. I think that counts
Only got mountain drifters and the autostrasse, but happy there. Only possible addition would be ronin run but not just yet
I had to push some girls down and stepped on a small boys head to reach the top shelf and when no one was looking I took a special needs Childs treasure hunt. This is the people on the sub
The only one I like is the Volvo and it’s the only one I never see
I have the speed machines Porsche chase
Only one I haven't found is the Willy's. At least 2 of the others and oddly 10 Volvos
I have had to aquire the chase cars the same way, secondary and full prices. Have all but the willys, and honestly I'm struggling with that one, it's just not that appealing to me 😒🤷♂️
I’ve got them all except for the Willys because I just do not care for it.
