Hot Wheels Creator Dies at 95. What's Your Favorite Hot Wheels Memory? - WOT on Motor Trend

When I was a kid, one of my favorite things to do was make long lines across my bedroom floor of hot wheels and matchbox cars. Loved them.

That is sad. I still collect 1:18 scale die cast model cars. Quite a few of my Ferraris are hot-wheels.

The tracks, the ones with the constant spinning wheels to make them go faster and faster! And then building custom tracks to make them jump over stuff!

That's sad. Best wishes to his family.

Good thing is how cheap they have remand over the years.

I've been meaning to pick up a 370 but can only find a silver one.

I remember I used to rear apart my Hotwheels and slam 'em! Or just bend the axles and end up with nasty oni-kyan. I was into stance before it was cool.

His legacy will live on in the form of die cast cars! RIP, best wishes to his family.
