Hot Wheels Wiki

Before the days of the internet or digital media, Hot Wheels would promote their line of Hot Wheels by giving posters away. These posters would showcase their respected years mainline series. But because Hot Wheels sent the posters out before the actual mainline hit the stores, the posters would feature numerous of prototype cars, usually in the form of resin casts (or in certain cases an earlier existing release with wheels swapped out to illustrate what they may look like); these illustrate cars that were still being designed and were ultimately never released, cars that were released featuring different colors, tampos or names or were switched out for another car at the last minute.

This article will showcase the posters that showcase these unique prototypes and lists only the cars that feature differences (as listed above) from what was actually released.

Hot 100[]

This is a much smaller poster that showcase 23 upcoming cars and the upcoming idea of introducing 100 new Hot Wheels casting and their sub series. This poster was probably made before the "2004" poster above as this poster advertises the first batch of cars coming out soon. And some of the cars that are correct in the "2004" poster has a prototype being showcased in the "Hot 100" poster. Example: In the "2004" poster, the '68 Chevy Nova is what arrived in stores, but in the "Hot 100" poster, it's a Resin prototype.

Note that any prototypes that appear in both posters will not be listed below. (example: LeMelt prototype appears in both posters)
