Get ready, collectors! Hot Wheels is dropping another wave of their popular Team Transport series, and Mix #1 for 2025 is packed with awesome pairings. This time around, we’re getting three distinct combos that cater to diverse tastes. You can check out the promo pics below to get a taste of what’s in store. I’m particularly excited about this release, and here’s why:
#74: Forest Green Jaguar Mk1 Hauled by a Silver 2023 Land Rover Defender 110
This set is a knockout! Not only are we getting the first-ever premium release of the Jaguar Mk1 casting in a sophisticated forest green, but it’s also being towed by a brand-new casting for Hot Wheels: the 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 in a sleek silver finish.
- About the cars: The real-life Jaguar Mk1 was a luxury sports sedan produced from 1955 to 1959. Known for its graceful lines and powerful engine, it was a favorite among the British elite and even made appearances in some classic films. The modern Land Rover Defender 110, on the other hand, is a rugged off-road SUV, capable of tackling tough terrain while still offering a luxurious driving experience. Seeing these two icons of British automotive history together is a real treat.
#75: 1972 Toyota Corolla Levin and Sakura Sprinter – A JDM Dream Team
Calling all JDM enthusiasts! This set is pure fire. The 1972 Toyota Corolla Levin is a legend in the world of Japanese performance cars, and Hot Wheels has captured its iconic shape perfectly. What makes this set even cooler is the matching paint job: both the Levin and its Sakura Sprinter hauler sport a vibrant yellow with red and orange stripes along the lower body.
- About the cars: The Levin was a high-performance variant of the Corolla, popular for its lightweight design and agile handling. It became a motorsports icon, dominating rally races and touring car championships. The Sakura Sprinter, while not a real-life vehicle, is likely inspired by Japanese car carriers of the era, often used to transport race cars to events.
#76: Silver Lamborghini Reventon Roadster with an All-Black Flipsider Hauler
For the supercar lovers out there, this set delivers the goods. The Lamborghini Reventon Roadster, a limited-production masterpiece, is recreated in stunning detail and finished in a striking silver. Its carrier? The menacing all-black Flipsider Hauler, ready to transport this beast in style.
- About the cars: The real Reventon Roadster was a limited-edition supercar with only 15 units produced. Its design was inspired by the F-22 Raptor fighter jet, giving it an aggressive and angular look. With a 6.5L V12 engine, it could reach a top speed of over 205 mph. The Flipsider Hauler, like the Sakura Sprinter, is a Hot Wheels original, likely taking cues from real-life enclosed car transporters used for high-value vehicles.
I don’t know about you, but I’m already planning a trip to my local stores to hunt these down! Team Transport sets are always a highlight of any Hot Wheels collection, and this mix is shaping up to be one of the best yet. What are your thoughts on these upcoming releases?
