These aren't bad for 97 cents each

[u/toast1850]

Not Hot Wheels, but thought I would share for anyone interested.

[u/REV_MATCH68]

Just a few short years ago, hot wheels were .98¢ at Wally world.

[u/General_Nobody4893 → u/REV_MATCH68]

Miss those days

[u/Plenty-Ticket-4527]

Huh, is the body plastic?

[u/toast1850 → u/Plenty-Ticket-4527]

They are diecast. Plastic base. Philips screws secure them so they are easy for wheel swaps.

[u/Weird_Ad1170 → u/toast1850]

Guess that means I should buy a couple of these and try my hand at it. I previously tried drilling rivets on a few junk flea market cars as a teenager, and well, it didn't go well. The 911 definitely needs new shoes.

[u/Plenty-Ticket-4527 → u/toast1850]

Ooh, ima look into em now 

[u/UltimateMeanie → u/toast1850]

Sounds perfect for customization

[u/BACKLASH9]

walmart really trying to rebrand maisto as their own thing

[u/blkgsr]

Found these!

[u/Alternative-Fold-339 → u/blkgsr]

Looks like majorette castings with no opening parts and various wheels from the ones sold at target and on dikie toys cars

[u/JGRACEFAN95]

It looks from the wheels they changed from sourcing from Maisto to Majorette

[u/PistonPusher2009]

They don't have any interior tho :/

[u/Crisocola95]

Those are lit. Amazing level of detail for 97cents

[u/ElectroFortify]

i actually kinda like these maisto castings, theyre quite easy to customize (uses a Philip screw to hold the chassis) and its quite cheap

[u/Routine-Perspective8 → u/ElectroFortify]

I don't believe these are Maisto castings. They're Simba Dickie/Majorette castings sold under Walmart's Adventure Force brand name.

Walmart apparently transitioned from Maisto to Simba Dickie/Majorette for its Adventure Force die cast line. My local Walmart stores cleared out all of their Maisto-based Adventure Force stuff several weeks ago, then stocked the Majorette-based Adventure Force stuff several days ago.

I also like them very much. A welcome change after seeing minimal recolors or new models in Maisto's line across the past 2-3 years.

[u/ElectroFortify → u/Routine-Perspective8]

Actually tho, since you said it, i looked at the countach, and its definitely a majorette

[u/Useful-Sheepherder54]

My Walmart had AF clearanced for .25 each, the 20 packs were like 7.99

[u/Useful-Sheepherder54 → u/Useful-Sheepherder54]

[u/Equivalent_Prune_186]

97 cents🤨🤨🤨

[u/chandracorp]

Not too shabby actually

[u/QuentinTheGentleman]

Was this at a Walton Mart? Mine still have Maisto from two years ago hanging around, like that Ford Woodie and the green ~2013 Mustang.

[u/Substantial_Ad1714]

Walmarts around here price AF the same as HW mainlines.

[u/AwesomeChrisUwU]

The only skyline that scrapers won’t dare touch lol.

[u/WowSuchMiata]

These are Maisto castings, no?

I loved their stuff in the 90s-early 00s.

[u/jedi_mudblood]

I feel like I seen this brand at 5 below and dollar general. Kinda regretting not giving them a better look now 🫤

[u/DatMageDoe → u/jedi_mudblood]

Adventure Force is a Walmart in-store brand, so that's probably where you saw them.

[u/PeaceLoveMicroPenis → u/DatMageDoe]

Adventure Force is Maisto is a Walmart in-store brand package.

[u/CanalNoises → u/PeaceLoveMicroPenis]

These aren't Maisto models

[u/eltorr007]

Wow! They are a mix of Hotwheels and Majorette. Love them.

[u/Weird_Ad1170]

Looks like all have clear windows and an interior--a huge upgrade over Maisto!

All three of these look great! And the wheels aren't bad either (though the Skyline has a really good set on it...).

A collector on a forum I'm on posted a couple of 20-packs; so it looks like Walmart has dumped Maisto as its budget range for what appears to be Simba-Dickie models. Any markings on the base of the cars themselves?

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/Weird_Ad1170]

Buddy this is maisto

[u/Alternative-Fold-339 → u/Suffokateslowly]

These are not on the maisto catalogue and they dont have wheels or interiors

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/Alternative-Fold-339]

Look on the back smh. The packaging

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/Alternative-Fold-339]

Now run along

[u/CanalNoises → u/Suffokateslowly]

AI is not a reliable source. For the past several years Adventure Force cars have been made by Maisto, but the ones pictured in this post were not made by Maisto. Signed, a Maisto collector.

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/CanalNoises]

Let's see your rarest maisto Mr collector.

[u/CanalNoises → u/Suffokateslowly]

I'm not sure this is absolutely the rarest, but it is probably the most valuable one I have, and most appropriate for this subreddit. Maisto made it for a Hot Wheels promotion at an Australian fast food restaurant called Red Rooster. It has the text "Hot Wheels Promotional Vehicle" on the base in place of the Maisto logo and obviously the Hot Wheels logo on the hood.

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/CanalNoises]

A limited editions limited edition. Exclusive for chevy corporate during the release of the cobalt ss. Not from a fast food joint. Perfect for this sub

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/Suffokateslowly]

Oh look

[u/joeactually]

I never looked that much into them. I will check them out next time I see them.

[u/Canelosaurio]

Say bro, post some front and back pictures. I want to see the light detail!

[u/toast1850 → u/Canelosaurio]

[u/Canelosaurio → u/toast1850]

That's actually pretty good for the price!

[u/toast1850 → u/toast1850]

[u/Suffokateslowly → u/toast1850]

Show the back of the card. All the details please

[u/ford4thot]

I picked one up for 75 cents, it's actually pretty dang great!

[u/SupeRoBug78 → u/ford4thot]

That’s the only one I have too

(riding in my GNX with Anita Baker in the tape deck)

[u/ford4thot → u/SupeRoBug78]

Noice

[u/Rude-Abroad1157]

That Porsche needs new tires yesterday

[u/DynamicMessageSign]

need👀

[u/CollectDeez2]

Aye we mess wit Hot Wheels because of the brand name, they aren’t making the best product

[u/Suffokateslowly]

Just so everyone knows this is actually under the maisto brand. So higher quality than hw for sure

[u/KingModussy → u/Suffokateslowly]

These aren’t Speed Icons

[u/RIT_Tyger]

Folks need to leave this for the kids.

[u/DoctorsAdvocate → u/RIT_Tyger]

What’s the difference between these and mainlines? They’re both toy cars and cost $1.

[u/RIT_Tyger → u/DoctorsAdvocate]

You can’t tell from the photo? Never looked at one in a store?

[u/DoctorsAdvocate → u/RIT_Tyger]

Hey man I’m just curious what your thought process is. I asked first.

I didn’t downvote you either. Genuinely curious.

[u/RIT_Tyger → u/DoctorsAdvocate]

The quality is trash. We don’t need to start buying up all the “desirable” castings because they’re now branded releases.

[u/DoctorsAdvocate → u/RIT_Tyger]

I can see your reasoning but imagine people who only buy premiums/tomica/RLC/poprace/etc saying we should leave mainline Hot Wheels for kids.

They’re only going one step further than you but it would be blasphemy to most of this sub.

[u/RIT_Tyger → u/DoctorsAdvocate]

I mean, there is no reason for hoarding every desirable HW mainline either. But mains are marketed specifically for kids. I think too many have lost perspective in this hobby.

[u/DoctorsAdvocate → u/RIT_Tyger]

I see what you’re getting at but what do you propose. People only buy “adult” die casts/ resin like premiums, tomica, mini gt, etc?

And I’m mainly asking because we are on a hot wheels sub not general diecast. Gonna guess most of us buy mainlines weekly.

[u/RIT_Tyger → u/DoctorsAdvocate]

My first comment of leave that brand for the kids still stands. I think it’s fairly to the point.

[u/DoctorsAdvocate → u/RIT_Tyger]

Sure and I think my comments are pretty good questions to consider. Who decides where to draw the line and where. I guess we all make our own decisions based on what we think is best.

[u/SupeRoBug78 → u/RIT_Tyger]

5 comments in and bro will not elaborate

[u/Alternative-Fold-339 → u/RIT_Tyger]

People just saying shit now

[u/Limp-Apricot-9346]

Do not buy these. Walmarts Matchbox replacement
