Carbonator

Sign in to edit


Description[]

Carbonator is a Hot Wheels casting based on a glass soda bottle on wheels with a large spoiler styled as a functional bottle opener and the large front winglets styled as a functional can opener. Designed by Alton Takeyasu, the Carbonator debuted in the 2008 New Models. Alton's original working name for the casting was "Bottle Rocket" but the name was not available for use. After many suggested names, the team ended up on Carbonator. Manson Cheung translated the design to a digital file, and adjusted it for track-worthiness. He added cool elements such as a "pop top" detail on the chassis bottom.

The casting was modified in 2016 where the position of the front rivet was moved forward. The casting was named Brutonator for the 2023 mainline; no changes were made to the casting itself.
