Hot Wheels Ford Mustang GT Concept - 2013 Treasure Hunt (X1671)

I got this last night at a local Target - a 2013 Treasure Hunt. I'm sure that this hit the pegs now as a return, but was surprised to see it nonetheless. I snagged it as I didn't have it - was pleasantly surprised to see it was a Treasure Hunt when I cracked it open today. Here is the 2004 Ford Mustang GT Concept as a police car. I would have preferred clear glass with a separate piece for the light bar, but what are you going to do.

1965 Ford Mustang (DLV24) from the 2016 Stars and Stripes series

From the 2016 Stars and Stripes series, here is number 3 of 10 - the 1965 Ford Mustang (DLV24). Nice casting, nice tampos. I turned 9 on the Bicentennial, and this really captures that spirit.

Johnny Lightning 1979 Ford Mustang Pace Car

The JL version of the 1979 Ford Mustang Indy 500 Pace Car. I have been lucky in finding these as I wasn't collecting when they were originally released.

Hot Wheels 2005 Ford Mustang (DHN93) - 2016 Mainline

From the HW Digital Circuit segment, here is the 2005 Ford Mustang. From the card back: "Specialty: Created for the 2014 SEMA show, this 2005 Ford Mustang pays homage to the Mustang's 50th Anniversary. With a solid 430 hp engine, vortech supercharger and custom, full roll-cage, not only does this pony look street-ready, it drives like the true muscle car it is."

I like the casting and love/hate the paint scheme. It works for me overall, and I can't say why. It's kind of ugly, but it is able to pull it off. I prefer clear glass, but the colored glass allows for glass in the front and rear lamps. Even the mis-matched rims works for me on this casting.

Johnny Lightning Pony Power Garage - 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2

The other model from the Pony Power Garage 2-pack - here is a '65 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback looking resplendent in what I am assuming is the Champagne Gold color.

Hot Wheels 1967 Custom Mustang (BFG90) - Walmart ZAMAC from 2014 Mainline

I don't try too hard to get all of the ZAMAC models, but I will pick them up when I see them on the pegs. This is a nice looking version with decals over bare medal.

Matchbox 2015 Classic Ride 5-pack

From the box: "CLASSIC RIDE It's a drive down memory lane when these classic rides are cruising around the neighborhood! With nostalgic silhouettes and engines that still give a thrilling performance, these vehicles stop every car enthusiast in their tracks!"

First off is the Ford GT40 (MB995)

Happy Holidays - 2015 Hot Wheels Holiday Hot Rods (3 of 6) - Ford 2010 Shelby GT500 Supersnake (CFV13)

The Hot Wheels Holiday cars are really "hit and miss" for me. I like the recent offerings, and I picked up 4 of the 6 from the Holiday Hot Rods. I couldn't find the Gangster Grin, and didn't like the GT-03. Here is the '10 Shelby GT500 Supersnake (CFV13).

Hot Wheels 1992 Ford Mustang (V5352) - 2012 Treasure Hunt (14/15)

Another Mustang Treasure Hunt, this one from 2012. Here is Hot Wheels 1992 Ford Mustang (V5352).

Hot Wheels Ford Mustang (P2351) - 2009 Treasure Hunts (1 of 12)

One of the Treasure Hunts from 2009 - the 1964 Ford Mustang (P2351).

Hot Wheels Then and Now - '65 Mustang 2+2 Fastback (CFM01) and '15 Ford Mustang GT (CFJ48) from the 2015 Mainline

I really enjoy the Then and Now segment. I haven't looked at all of the pairings, but I like what I've seen. Like here, the pairing of these two Mustang castings - the tampos look unique and show well on both the old and new models. Here are the 2015 Mainline castings of the '65 Mustang 2+2 Fastback (CFM01) and the '15 Ford Mustang GT (CFJ48).

Hot Wheels '63 Ford Mustang II Concept - 2011 New Models (14/50)

A well done version of a Mustang prototype - what's not to love?

Hot Wheels '68 Shelby GT500 (DHR20) from 2016 Mainline (105/250) Then and Now segment (5 of 10)

The Hot Wheels 2016 version of the '68 Shelby GT500 on a snowflake card from Target. One half of a "Then and Now" pair ... I just need the "Now" version of this duo. Like the color, but there seems to be a small flaw on the passenger side. Still give it high marks.

auto world 1984 Ford Mustang SVO

A couple of 1984 Ford Mustang SVO produced by auto world.

Hot Wheels '84 Ford Mustang SVO - 9 of 18 from the Hot Wheels Heritage Redline series

Hot Wheels is alternating between 2 premium series - the Heritage Redlines and the Heritage Real Riders. This is the 9th release of the 2015 Hertiage Redline series - the '84 Ford Mustang SVO (CFN74). I like the colors chosen for these releases - the Redline cars remind me of 70s era Hot Wheels in their coloration. This is a great casting with nice detailing.

Hot Wheels Custom '12 Ford Mustang - 2015 Kmart exclusive

Here is a Custom '12 Ford Mustang (CFK10) released as part of the 2015 Mainline (240/250). Part of the HW Drift Race segment, this version is a Kmart exclusive. And it is a hit in my opinion. The Falken Tires livery looks great, and the black and white motif really works on this casting, making the choice of wheels particularly appropriate. I love the grey racing interior, and the details on the actual casting like the raised Mustang in the front. Hot Wheels, when it works, works really well, especially for a toy costing around $1.

Hot Wheels Camouflage series - Walmart exclusive - 2nd of 6

I have no will power - after saying I was going to pass on this series, I ended up getting the other cars from it anyway. It's only a buck a pop, but it is certainly adding up. I don't love this version of the 1967 Shelby GT-500 (DFL83), but it does grow on you. Reminds me of the disruptive paint jobs auto manufacturers use to obscure the lines of their prototypes (or the dazzle patterns Great Britain and the US used on ships)

Hot Wheels Mustang Mach 1 from Diamonds Are Forever

Another version of the 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 as shown in James Bond Diamonds are Forever. This is from Hot Wheels Retro Entertainment line (item # BDV01) so it has a metal base and is on rubber tires.

Hot Wheels Walmart James Bond Series - Mustang Mach 1

Number 2 in the Walmart 007 series is this 1971 Mustang Mach 1 (part number CGB73) from Diamonds are Forever. Love the artwork that Mattel did for these.
