In March 2013, the website T-Hunted published images from the 13th Annual Hot Wheels Collectors Nationals which revealed upcoming cars. Among those announced was images for the 2000 Robin's Red Bird along with other upcoming Hot Wheel cars on their website.
T-Hunted is a website that previews and showcases many cars that are to appear in the near future for multiple diecast lines, but mainly Hot Wheels. Most of their leaked findings comes to fruition within a couple of months. But in the rare instance like this car, the casting was made and planned for release, but does not due to a last minute change, such as the Batman 1:50 Scale Series having a brief hiatus in 2012 the 2000 Robin's Red Bird was never released.
With the Batman 1:50 Scale Series starting back up in 2016 and continuing since, the lack of this casting appearance in the past 10 years proves that it will unlikely be released.
