It was announced that Dollar General would be hosting the next round of Hot Wheels exclusives along with a mail in vehicle, after Kroger and GameStop recently. To this point, it’s been a fiasco. Once the mail in period started, I began checking DG regularly. After seeing posts online of people starting to find the…
The background: Mattel released starting in 2010 a sub series of Wrestlers called Legends, which were “Old school” characters in their own line. Jakks Pacific had tremendous success on their Classic Superstars line, so the audience was there for Mattel. The Legends line went through series 6, with some online exclusives as well. After that,…

So the idea is to see what year has the best Hot Wheels supers on average. The year range is 2019(we don’t know all of 2020 yet), to 2012, the first year of secret super treasure hunts. The 95-11 range may be a different post. I used a point system of 0-5 with 5 being…
