I'm not really into motorcycles, but those are kinda cool. What scale are they?
they are 1/64 scale. They are the same castings they they have release before but this time they put riders on them to make them interesting and much more fun for the kids.
I picked up the tomahawk and dirt bike for my kids. Im not really into bikes either. I would have thought they would have done the Canyon Carver that they just came out with this last case, because that was actually a neat bike.
HW is coming out with some odd ball stuff. Really trying to incorporate technology into their cars and they end up on the clearance shelf.
Video Racer car - Clearance. Was $50 picked up for $25 for birthday gift for buddies kid to mount on his bike to make videos when he rides around
Those Color calrs that you paint with light - clearance now
now they came out with a car that you steer or drive with an IR "gun"
and also a Car that you move around on your iPad that moves the car in an app that you download.
really stretching there..

I should've known, but there did exist some doubt without a car for comparison, and the rider figures probably threw my perception off, too! If I manage to find the dirt bike, I'll pick it up.
Agreed. If I want to play with my Hot Wheels--which happens more frequently than one might think--I'll get a track and not an iPad. With a track, my cats can play, too!

They are not 1/64th scale... they would be about the size of a nickel if they were! :tongue:
...just say they are in the regular Hot Wheels line... just a pet peave of mine...
Yeah, the ones I have don't display so well alongside other Hot Wheels. The Parking Enforcement one is every bit as long as my HW 65 GTO.They are not 1/64th scale... they would be about the size of a nickel if they were! :tongue:

I was only quoting the packaging where they state its 1/64. But im sure the scale is not necessarily accurate. As you said.They are not 1/64th scale... they would be about the size of a nickel if they were! :tongue:

A 1:64 scale motorcycle would, indeed, be small, and probably worhtless as a toy. The '07 Silverado, Pocket Bikester, Bronco 4-Wheeler, Dodge Rampage, and '56 Hil-Tail Hauler all carry bikes that are closer to 1:64 scale.
Good call. I have one of those Broncos and it makes perfect sense in that light. I honestly have never given a second thought into the accuracy or even the realm of possibility of scales. I just used them as a general guide as to what to expect.
