The 2014 Series of Hot Wheels are now on the pegs and have their own Price Guide listing here on Hallsguide.com.

The 2014s look to be very similar to the 2013s as far as Series goes. The 2014 New Models will be scattered throughout the different series and designated with a yellow stamp on the card. Regular Treasure Hunts will be unmarked other than a small “14” tampo on the car. Super Treasure Hunts will be similar to last year’s as well. They will feature Spectraflame paint and Real Rider wheels.

Like 2013, you can expect to find more cars from Popular movies and TV shows. This year we saw the Enterprise from Star Trek and Flintstone’s Flintmobile. 2014 so far has The Jetson’s Capsule Car and the Love Bug’s Herbie.

Some of the latest 2014s to be released have commanded some pretty high figures on Ebay. #201 Kool Kombi has gone for $10-15. #222 Toyota AE-86 Corolla has gone for $15.00. #30 1990 Honda Civic EF is currently going for an average of $35. The first one to hit Ebay sold for a staggering $255. Only time will tell if these new releases will hold their value or if it is simply the hype of new releases in a new year.

although jl is gone, there diecast will be around for a good while yet. at there peck between 99and 2013 they were the best, hot wheels, match box, green light, m2, and all others could not come close to what they made, they were adult collector material, they were not toys, mattel is one of the worst companys to buy from if you are a true collector of detailed diecast, them and there other company matchbox are manufactured in so many high numberes they will never be worth any thing, maybe in a 100 years but that is it, sure they have there special set but sooner or later they over produce them then there is green light and m2 which manfacture so many of the same castings your lucky they will be worth 7 dollars in 20 years, the most jl manfactured was 20,000 models at a time, green light does over 50,000 at a time, try to find out the percentage of every green machine to regular model, they won,t tell you, if you ever find out please let me know, it,s like when i was collecting sports cards, topps, upperdeck, bowman, they printed so many cards that in the long run they turn out to be worthless, you can use them to wipe your but, that would hurt BUT you can get the idea. thanks for reading. scottrick.

I was looking thru price guide 2007 #152 Nissan Z MIB. I have a Gold with Tampos. I noticed the Tampos on the door is printed backwards. Is that by design or an error? If it is an error what would it do to value?
