As if Mattel putting a yellow ’83 Chevy Silverado in the 2014 Hot Wheels K-Cases wasn’t awesome enough, they had to go and add a Super Treasure Hunt version as well. The Super Treasure Hunt version features Spectraflame gold paint and Real Rider wheels. This is such an awesome casting on it’s own. I’m glad to see it as a Super.
’83 Chevy Silverado Super Treasure Hunt
It is currently going for $20-25 on the secondary market. If you find one, tell us about it on our Message Board.
With the release of the 8-car Spider-Man series by Hot Wheels, everyone is scrambling to find car #8, the Evil Twin. This one prominently features Venom on the front of the card. There have been many reports of 8 to 10 cases of the Spider-Man series showing up at stores, with only 1 or 2 Evil Twins to be found in the whole lot.
Many collectors are trying to complete the Spider-Man set right now, and with the Evil Twin being so hard to find, they are selling for $20-25 on the secondary market right now.
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.
For all of you Volkswagen fans, we are taking a closer look at the 2013 New Model
This is a shortened drag version of the Volkswagen Kombi. Kombi comes from the German Kombinationskraftwagen, which means “combination motor vehicle.” It featured removable rear seats so it could function as a passenger van or cargo vehicle.
Right now, this 2013 New Model has been spotted in 3 variations:
2013-169 Volkswagen Kool Kombi (HW Showroom – 2013 New Model)
green $2.00
orange $2.00
white $2.00
They were very popular when they first came out, sometimes selling for up to $10 on the secondary market. They have become more plentiful over time and are now selling for a max of $2.00.
There was an error with no tampos on the white version that sold for $76 on Ebay. This is a very popular casting due to the popularity of all things VW so errors and variations on this model will tend to command much higher premiums than errors on other models.
