Hi everyone, I wanted to introduce myself and need alot of help getting started in the hobby. My main question is where to start when collecting hotwheels. I tried a few years ago to collect all...first ed....track aces..the whole nine yards. What I ran into was that every time I thought I was done, they came out with a variation to the card or color ect. I know the answer is to collect what I like, but what I like is completeness.
Any advise would be appreciated.
2nd: today I aquired a pile of new 2007 cars all from the same case. They are the long cards. All of the cards seam to have the same variation to them which is that the batmobiles and all of the 2007 first editions for example say 15/36 instead of 15 of 36....the taxis say 02/04 it is like this for all of the specialties lines. Then the goldriders humvee and unobtainiun 1 just say gold not goldriders and have the same 04/04 with no "of"
Is this an oddball case or just another way for hotwheels to make me by another version of the same car?
Either way I made out like a bandit with 4 batmobiles and a bunch of cars I did not have yet.
Any input would be great!!
Thanks and I'm sure you will be seeing more of me
