Hell yes, was gonna comment the same. For like a dollar that are weirdly true to life, even if it's like a fucking '94 Honda Civic or some other tan color 80s or 90s sedan, lol.
The metal Matchbox cars are all fun and games until your friends little brother shows up and hits you the head with them while you're on the swing set outside and you head starts bleeding

Modern Hot Wheels are being accurate. Cars now have plastic undercarriage covers.

*Some cars now have various undercarriage covers. But the corvette in this image doesn’t have that undercarriage.

Last time this image was posted I said something similar and got downvoted 🙃
Edit: Oh wait, my comment IS there in the crosspost and there's only 2 downvotes. I somehow remembered more...

Matchbox is owned by hot wheels would assume they are enshitificating them in the same way

Many of the original G1 Transformers, GoBots an other car based toys of that era also had metal parts. Die cast toys were awesome.

Is THAT a Supra?
abfarid@startrek.website · 3 pts · 259d
Potentially a hot take:
Supra Mk4 looks terrible, especially in comparison to Mk3, which is amazing.

I grew up with Majorette as the gold standard. Over here Hotwheels came much later and they looked too weird.

Semi-related, is your username in reference to a Ranger?
