First Look: Twin Mill Super Treasure Hunt 5

This entry was posted in Blog Archives First Look Gallery Posts Hot Wheels and tagged featured on by

The 2014 H-Case was released first back in March, but many of them are still hitting the shelves right now.  If you are lucky enough to find an H-Case with a Super Treasure Hunt in it, you would find the original Twin Mill in Spectraflame green with Real Rider wheels.  This would be the closest release to date to the real-life Twin Mill which has recently been painted Spectraflame green.    The real Twin Mill features dual 504 big block engines that combine to produce around 1400 horsepower!

The Twin Mill Super Treasure Hunt is one of the best bargains for 2014.  It currently averages $10 to $12 on the secondary market.  If you find one, share it with our community over on our message board.

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.

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.
