2010 Hot Wheels® Garage Series Includes More Designers!

The Next Wave Chosen By Larry, Plus Phil And Wayne

10-28-09

Last year, we opened up the Larry’s Garage™ series of Hot Wheels® cars based on castings and designs he would choose for his own garage. This year, we’ve asked two more designers to put together their “dream garage!” The Hot Wheels® Garage series of cars will continue with Larry’s Garage™, plus the addition of lines from Hot Wheels® designer Phil Riehlman and Hot Wheels® graphic artist Wayne Scott. And, like the Delivery series, the Garage series will debut several new castings, as well as some new Real Riders® wheels!

Purple Passion® Woodie

’69 Camaro®

’64 Lincoln Continental

A baker’s dozen 13 cars will comprise each of the garages. Among the new castings you’ll find in this series are Larry’s take on the ’51 Le Sabre™ Concept and Phil’s new Volkswagen T1 Drag Bus!

All of the Garage series cars will feature full-metal chassis and Real Riders® wheels. As with the Delivery series, you can look for the Real Riders® lake disk wheels to show up here in their inaugural year. This series will also launch two other types of Real Riders® wheels: both the Real Riders® exotic wheels and the Real Riders® steelie wheels! And finally, we completely turned three wizards of design (Larry, Phil and Wayne) loose on the deco in this series -- it’s gonna be hot in this garage!
