Treasure Hunt Cars

Recommended Posts

Some Treasure Hunt cars look very ordinary and should not be the case. One example is the 2009 TH '65 Mustang and there are many examples. Are the TH cars becoming less and less attractive to our eyes?

Plain looking.

Its a matter of taste. This convertible might be very attractive in USA, but its not here. We get more sun and they don't. But if you want to know the appeal of the convertible stang, you could always look at the movie Mr Bean : Ultimate disaster movie.

They got to cater for all tastes I guess.

Some cars are ordinary while some cars are fully decked-out.

Some of the 2010 Mystery Cars look very nice and nicer than the TH cars and are popular castings . In fact, even some basic cars look better. TH cars in general are not very nice looking and most of them cannot sell well (rubbish cars as I called them). Naturally, bec. Mattel knew very well you all will grab them no matter how ugly they are. Hehe...

futhermore, I think they have their own strategy... for example, this year TH Ratbomb. You can still see the olders models hanging on pegs.. Once it is out, people might look for those FE ones...

I wonder when will they came up with a TH Blimp.. ehhehee.. but where to put those rubbers wheels huh? hmmm....

I think it's the only TH w/o rubber for that era. Note that only just recently that Mattel decided to promote TH & TH$.

A regular TH is hard enough to find, what more to say a Super TH. Anyone knows how many Regular and Super in a 72 car box?

In one website, the price of a Regular TH car is quoted only double the ordinary one (popular or real) but a Super TH car is about 8 times more. If based on this pricing, here a regular TH car will cost around RM14 while a Super TH one around RM55. So, how much did you pay for your TH cars?

Only 1xTH or 1xTH$ or no TH/TH$ at all per box. I'm more interested on how many TH/TH$ were produced for each year. I.e. How many TH Ratbomb & TH$ Ratbomb were produced.

Saw in one website the price guide (US$) for the Skyline:

REgular - Loose $2.00 (2x ord. car price ($1.00)), Carded $4.00 (4x)

Super - Loose $8.00 (8x), Carded $16.00 (16x)



Based on the price guide, our price will be:

Regular - Loose RM13.60, Carded RM27.60

Super - Loose RM55.20, Carded RM110.40


What say you?

For those who had never scored a TH or TH$ before, do not believe that you do not have a chance to grab one. A couple of days ago, I just walked in a hypermarket and found a Super TH hanging there.

Stumble to this topic. Creator comments on TH is rather hurting me.
Yes someone will see something so stunning but to someone else is rather mediocre.
To Asian taste most American cars are ugly. Sure most Japanese cars is cheap trick but
only those been prepped up to lighter parts and bigger turbos can achieved what you can
call as 10 sec car ( DC5 or R32 case )or else is just ordinary 16-14 second car.
Most American car in stock V8 3.5 and higher just producing 13.5 - 15 second car but if prepped up
with dual carbs or bolted turbos ( for new produce engine ) most of this car happily cruising below 8.5 secs. See and hear for yourself how American car behave can give you another thought or simply total reverse. No other car in this world have that muscular attitude. For Japanese..never Japanese car can be called muscular look. Just beauty with cute attitude that need to go to anger management. So to sense your hobby to Hotwheels one most appreciate what actually Hotwheels car means. Ultimately total understanding is a must. For me after long into Hotwheels what I feel is Hotwheels is only lacking towards Euro car taste appreciation. If that do so by Hotwheels than Hotwheels is superbly perfect. Do mind to Originals cause most Originals is for small kids but not to Originals based from original car.
