Hot Wheels Van

At this point, just about everyone has probably heard of the Hot Wheels brand and the millions of small-scale cars they have made through the years. Of course, whenever we think of Hot Wheels cars, we also think of the awesome race tracks we could make for our little four-wheeled beasts to race in.

With that said, there is one model car that has become quite a diamond for Hot Wheels collectors – the pink-colored Volkswagen Beach Bomb. After making a couple of models, the manufacturers realized the van couldn’t be placed on their race tracks. This resulted in them discontinuing its production and shifting their investments to other projects. Since then, out of the indefinite number of models made, only two Beach Bombs have been discovered. One of them was auctioned off for the impressive price of $72,000. Suffice to say, both seller and buyer left that transaction happy.
