The 2024 B case is here and we have a review on this awesome case! The first car on our radar is the Mazda Autozam. This Legends Tour vehicle features a Texas Toot graphic that our locals are dying to get their hands on! The car also features some teeth on the front grill that get this truck ready to devour the competition! Our next car is the potential super for the B case which we did happen to get. The 2018 Camaro SS comes in an a black paint on black paint scheme with red striping in its regular version. The Super Version swaps the black paint for a Spectraflame Black that looks almost navy. Both cars feature a Hot Wheels flame logo on the front quarter panel. The Super version sports grey 5 spoke wheels as opposed to the black wheels on the regular version. As a Camaro fan I love this car but it won’t be the most expensive or nicely done Super we see this year. Next up we have an awesome highlight in the Nissan Skyline RS [KDR30]. This car features a purple paint scheme with gold and black accents throughout. Gold 10 spoke rims make this car look great! If this was the Super for the B Case, Super of the year would be done already. Just imagining what could have been if this car would’ve been done in Spectraflame but sadly that is not the case. Even still, the R30 is sure to be high on most collectors lists. Our final highlight for the first half of the case is the Honda Civic Si. Gold paint, red interior, and a Carbon Fiber hood makes this car the best thing in B case outside of getting a Super. The civic features some small detailing including a Honda H on the front and rear as well as some headlight detailing. Expect this car to be an expensive buy until C case comes around and more are being circulated.
For the second part of the B case we have a few cars that are sure to add to the appeal of the B case! The Volkswagen T2 Pickup is an awesome casting in this case. It features some VW branding throughout and a metal interior that’s visible on the rear of the vehicle. This car will surely be a hit for those who like the VW brand. Next up we have a recolor of the Corvette featured in the Barbie movie. This time it comes in a matte grey paint job with flame graphics on the side. It’s also good to note that this time the car features a “KEN” license plate. Our next model is the Ain’t Fare bus which also happens to be the treasure hunt for the case. Normally we find 1 Treasure Hunt per case, but for this case we have only found 3 out of the 8 cases we have opened. Not sure if it’s because of the awkward size of the bus or not but this treasure hunt could be a difficult one to find in the wild. The bus features a Hot Wheels World Tour Flame graphic on the side and has an overall rock music aesthetic. This is definitely a unique treasure hunt for the year! Next up, we have a recolor of the F-150 lightning custom that is pretty nice. The truck features red paint this time around and a grey interior that is more appealing than the chrome interior of its predecessor. F-150 decals are present throughout but the slammed look of this vehicle really sells it. Our final highlight car is another Ford. The 2019 Ford Raptor is a good casting, but the HKS livery is putting this truck on everyone’s radar. The car also features black rims with blue trim that tie together well, but the livery is the real reason everyone will be after this casting.
From an investment perspective, the B case definitely has a lot of bang for your buck. Cars like the R30 and Honda Civic were selling early for over $20 each. While these prices will likely come down, holding onto these castings could be a good idea. As usual, your best ROI will be finding a Super in the wild, but I expect to see the Camaro at around the $40 mark once they are in circulation and prices have settled. Keep an eye on the Ain’t Fare TH. If the scarcity of this casting holds then I could see this casting going up in value to those looking to complete their collections for 2024.
