Description[]
Fast Fish is a Hot Wheels contemporary muscle car casting designed by Fraser Campbell that debuted in the 2008 New Models. The car itself appears to be a tribute to numerous muscle cars from over the years, mainly the modern-day Dodge Challenger and Ford Mustang, but with a futuristic touch added. But the name on this muscle car is not because of it looking like a Mustang or a Challenger. It is based on a futuristic and modern form of a Plymouth Barracuda. The bulge on its hood reveals an 8-cylinder engine in the shape of a shield, and it also includes a sound system on its rear, which was common for Hot Wheels vehicles at the time. It also has a front splitter, side skirts, and a custom spoiler. Fast Fish quickly became a vehicle known for its overwhelming success on the track, becoming a great track car and even being advertised as a "Track Star" on many releases.
In 2014 the tooling for the Fast Fish was updated: the spoiler is now a part of the metal body.

Trivia[]
- In concept art Fast Fish's spoiler is depicted as three separate parts. In it's toys, card artwork and other media they are shown merge together as one.
- In the 2011 Video Game Heroes release of Fast Fish it is shown having graphics on it's hood in it's card artwork. These graphics are nowhere to be seen on it's diecast model.
