Rating this Yapachino 5/5 for facts and logic

I'm the type of collector who really doesn't like to drive around and hunt, compete with everyone else, just to get the car I want. With the time, money, and effort driving around, I could have made more money or done something else I much prefer. The 4 chases I have were all about $45-60 USD each compared to the base price of $20 which is a 25-40 dollar difference. Worth the premium price to me.

The chase models are appeared as blister version only is exactly DUMB move from the start. Mini GT should hide the chase models in the box version will always a truly good hunt to make the collectors spend their money for

[@rayantonio1173]

Any piece with an open blister whether it's Hot Wheels or MiniGT workers will put it aside. Workers are even being paid per month to put aside chase pieces. For us collectors, this is not fair. Will this ever change from a consumer or distribution standpoint....probably not

9 times out of 10, chase pieces don't look as nice as the normal. If I opened a chase from a KH box, I'd be pissed.

Its like comic books store they have to buy hundreds of one comic to get a rare 1:500 to sell back.

hi! i am from india and hotwheels mainlines just started coming back like 3-4 months ago. we got the 2024 k case a few days back, but it is only available in hobby stores. also there are only like 4-5 hobby stores/diecast stores in the whole country :( the cost of the cars has also increased terribly. in maybe 2019 a mainline cost INR 120 which is about 2 SGD. now they cost 179 INR EACH! also the pop culture series had come a few months ago. each car cost INR 550(About 9 SGD). the imported mainlines cost about 1999 INR each. talk about high prices..... man ive written a lot! also, i visited Singapore in 2021. miss the kaya toast and old chang kee curry-os a lot!

every 24 cars u buy in a box, u get 1 free chase. So u pay more for limited production for different livery not for the chase hype like in hot wheels. If you want to get chase for cheaper price, go spend 450-500 dollars to buy 1 sealed box and sell the 23 regular ones for retail price, keep the chase

[@bearabletable7527]

This is why I dont even bother with chases from ANY brands. lmao

[@squadmaster114]

Paying 50 dollars for a chase makes it feel like it’s not a chase

Mini GT: Let's add some chase pieces to add fun for collectors to go after and find

[@hot_wheels_collector69]

As a seller you can pick out inno64 or kaido house chases out of the box if you know where there located, it's every time the same spot and some sellers do that.. random spots in the box would stop this behaviour.

[@MNightR32]

This actually applies to MiJo exclusives where the blister shows the car, normally it wouldn't reveal in box only packs

[@michaelteret4763]

Chase pieces from any brand annoy me. “Chase” just means “Unaffordable” these days. Where I live, the Target and Walmart workers are wise, and they grab everything.

[@ryanc00p3r3]

look's like I'm the only lucky bloke who got a Tarmac Works Pagani Huayra R Nero Oro Chase version from Shop 4 Fun...

[@Edward7164K5]

Kaido house is a great example of how minigt chase are ruining the collecting scene

[@kevenram]

It’s tough honestly. I’m incredibly luckily that my hobby shop sells all mini gt chases for $35 regardless of the model. It’s a slight markup from his $12 price but he’s an honest shop that isn’t trying to steal everyone’s money.

[@elpaso7204]

How we chase them if the Hobby Shop already got them.. THINK MINI GT!! THINK!!

[@jesse3271]

I think you still haven"t heard how the hotwheels treasure hunts and super treasure hunts here in PH are collected by the distributor even before going to the stores hahaha they include it in their promo for selling, but then again its a good thing for us here in PH since hoarders cannot get it to jack up the prices, but then there is no thrill and excitement to find one in the wild
