Great advice! I personally don’t care about TH, STH or chases. It’s all about the castings that I like, and the enjoyment I get out of the hobby. I like that you mentioned not buying all of them if you find multiple. More collectors need to have this mindset. You got a sub from this old man 🤘.

@dynamicsindiecast4258 I started getting only the car models I loved, but they would change models every few years, so I missed out on a TON of cars I want. So I decided to try to get some TH and Supers, but because of SCALPERS AND D- BAGS I have never found one.
@richatdjoned36563 ай бұрын
I have found that making an inventory list to keep track of your collection. I have found that Hot wheels uses the same name for different castings, so it's a good idea to use a database or spreadsheet, in my opinion.

@TheRealZachPowell if you look on Fandom or list of exclusives, they will show what cars are only at what stores. It takes research to really track all of them, but they are out there in certain colors

Great video! More people need the mindset of not taking every car on the pegs. I had to stop watching most KZbinrs who hunt because it’s infuriating to watch them take everything at the store.

I would say that this is all great advice and support all that you said but the most important thing is to have fun and be happy with collecting the cars you like and not ones people tell you you should ( even though those are the cool ones most of the time ). Also I’d love to emphasize leaving behind TH that you may already have or don’t particularly need cause it can make another collectors day totally worth it

I suggest that you not only keep a inventory but collect what you like. I'm suggesting you narrow your focus on a theme. Chases are fine to collect but I think that it is the fun of the chase, not just the casting. My collection is primarily sports cars, exotics and muscle cars. For a while I was collecting vehicles for a diorama that I want to make. For me, I'm just starting my inventory list and since I waited so long, it's a daunting task. I've been collecting since the late 1970's, so I have many cars to inventory. 😮

The DGs are just colors that you can't find anywhere else; same with the Kroger and Best Buy excl colors (same w Target as you mentioned) My buddy lives in TN and found the 'best buy' orange porsche 935 at his Kroger, oddly enough. I def agree with you about other "collectors" buying up everything that they find! I've been collecting since 1980 and the last few years have been horrible, imo, with the scalpers ruining it for the true collectors. -Royce

Got back into collecting in 2016 after a 15 year absence. I still have yet to find a Super or a Chase in the wild, so consider yourself extremely lucky. I will buy multiples of TH's, but only as trading stock with other collectors. And I only trade even-up, that is, one car for one car, never for money or multiple cars. Also, from what I can tell, there's no way to tell a DG exclusive unless you know ahead of time as to the color variation. Anyway, good info and happy hunting!
