Mattel is introducing iconic Hot Wheels designs to its growing line of construction sets. Starting in January, kids ages 6 and up can build and display six 1:64-scale vehicles from the company’s upcoming Mattel Brick Shop Hot Wheels Racer Series.
The new series combines Hot Wheels‘ distinctive silhouettes with the Brick Shop’s resin construction bricks and easily digestible instructions. Each car has a metal base plate, rubber-like tires, and functional wheels.
Fans can build six different vehicles, including the ’24 Camaro ZL1, ’18 Audi TT RS, Maserati MCPura, ’91 Acura NSX, ’99 Honda S2000, and Hot Wheels Bone Shaker ($4.99 each). Collectors won’t know which model they have until they unbox it, adding a surprise element to the building experience.
Kids simply click the bricks together and add their favorite Hot Wheels models to the track or the shelf. Each piece in the first series has 27-29 pieces to connect.
“With the Hot Wheels Racer Series, we’re expanding our signature Mattel Brick Shop approach to brick-building to the iconic 1:64 scale that has defined Hot Wheels die-cast cars for nearly 60 years,” says Ted Wu, General Manager and Global Head of Vehicles and Building Sets at Mattel. “Through thoughtful design and engineering, we have accomplished this without compromising the authentic details, craftsmanship and quality that has defined Hot Wheels for generations. The result is a building experience that feels distinctly Mattel Brick Shop and unmistakably Hot Wheels.”
The new series launches in January. Fans can expect the line to include 20 Hot Wheels builds by the end of 2027. Visit mattelbrickshop.com to learn more about the brand.
