Hot Wheels Finds - Ballistiks On Sale & Bat-Pod

   Hello Collectors and welcome back to my blog. It is about time around here for the dry period to pass away and some of the stores already filled the pegs with new Hot Wheels. Most of them have the cars from the A and B mix that i already have, but I got to one store and getting closer to the area where the pegs are I saw them full and you guys know how that feels, when you think maybe you will be the first one to go thru them and find what you want, especially the harder to find cars, Treasure Hunts and Super Treasure Hunts. It wasn't my case, because when I got closer I saw that someone else already went thru them, I didn't find any Treasure Hunts, didn't find any since the A mix one, Subaru WRX, no Supers, because we don't get any Super Treasure Hunts anymore, but I managed to find the Porsche Panamera and the Bat-Pod from the C mix.


C mix cars


The 3rd car for me in this set


As I told you in one of my previous posts we get the Muppets serie and because of the high price I will find them on the pegs even after one-two months since they appeared, so I am going to have time to complete it. This time I picked the '59 Chevy Delivery and i have three in total, with the Baja Breaker and Dairy Delivery.


They cost around 15$


By now all of you are probably familiar with the Ballistiks line from Hot Wheels, if not, they are plastic based cars at a larger scale than regular Hot Wheels that can change into a ball and on impact they can change back into a car. They're mostly made for kids and not for the adult collectors, besides some of them that represent different known characters, like the Joker, Batman, Superman and so on. Also the Ballistiks in their line of toys contain many launchers and play sets that work only with the Ballistiks cars, like the Combat Cannon, Pullforce, Super 6-Shooter and others. The regular price for them here is about 15$, but i managed to find this one at 2$.

Hope you enjoy the pictures and reading. Leave your comment and let me know what you think and also, what are your latest finds ?
Happy collecting, stay safe and have fun with your Hot Wheels.
