I recently sold an extra recent release I had and was able to afford the piece you see here and then some.A place for everyone who loves to collect Hot Wheels and other die-cast vehicles. With those prices on the rise, the good condition Custom Chargers seem a little more attainable. That is awesome for the club that I am a part of. For some reason, the prices on RLC pieces are through the roof! To get some of the latest releases that have 12,000-piece runs, it will cost in excess of $100 on the secondary market. However, you have to believe that this was the shot for the RLC to bring back the Custom Charger, and now that the club has gone in a slightly different direction, the likelihood for this classic casting to make a comeback (once again) seems unlikely. The #Brendon Vetuskey Designed ultra-premium RLC model looks phenomenal, and you know that he will obsess over every little meticulous detail for you. The RLC has shifted though into an era of more realistic proportioned cars with #Opening Features, and we are getting a new ’69 Charger - which is awesome, by the way! Hopefully, my years of nagging had something to do with it. I have been lobbying the RLC team at Mattel to bring back the #Custom Charger for years citing the value of the original #Redlines as reason enough. I felt a little better after that and made my first big #Redlines purchase.ġ969 Hot Wheels Custom Charger REDLINE (head-to-head) I read a few articles by redline experts, examined the Hot Wheels resources that are out there, and consulted another collector I trust to examine the listing before I bought my first #1969 Hot Wheels redline. At some point though, you have to finally take the knowledge you have and take the plunge if you are ever going to acquire one. Redlines are not my subject of expertise so I was always a little uneasy about the possibility of getting scammed. Add in poor photography that doesn’t capture toning issues, bent axles, or other blemishes, and buying redlines can be terrifying - especially when shelling out hundreds of dollars for a mint one. Truthfully, I’ve always been a little intimidated to buy original redlines as there are a lot of great restorations out there and I am only interested in the originals. I could get mint recreations of the castings at a fraction of the price of the originals. One of those reasons is that the Red Line Club had done a terrific job at bringing a bunch of the casting’s back. The many stories behind them are fascinating, but still, I never really thought to acquire any for a multitude of reasons.
As I grew older, my means grew, but so did the prices on them.īeing a Hot Wheels collector for the last 25 years, I have always had the utmost respect for Hot Wheels history and collectors of Redlines. When I started collecting in the mid-1990s, Hot Wheels #Redlines had already taken off in value - far beyond the means, I had to spend. Many of my favorite childhood cars had them. As a child of the 1980s, I was born into the Hot Wheels #Real Riders era by default.
