The UK Mattel creations site has release dates all the way into late April for Hot Wheels (and other collector brands) which the US site does not yet have. I just found this interesting. Im not sure if this is a bug or something we can actually trust as, Well, Mattel doesn't always get their scedule right and this being the new UK site I just dont know.
Still if this is right however, we got 3 cars coming up next month to look forward to. I wonder what they might be?

Lucky us! 2 for £5! These prices are getting mental. And look at all the alarm stickers and pins.. 😭 I get it. Average prices are £2+ but this is just depressing.

Has Mattels shipping gone up!? ....is what I asked when I payed £16 instead of the usual £9 for the Elite 64 BMW Touring. Assuming it had and just going with it, I payed for it and just sucked it up. Until later I added another to cart to see and oh, it charged me £9.
So Mattel's site can now bug out and incorrectly over charge shipping.. great! Watch out for that one lads!
Mattel you better give me some premium shipping on this bimmer!

Color shift skyline "lost" in post? Or am I just paranoid? Another car shipped from mattel the same date and arrived 4 days ago so it's not looking good..
What the- is it with these skylines!? I have had so many packages stole- I mean lost in transit lately it has riled me right up! And as I sit here writing some useless post in any attempt to try let out some anger I wonder to myself, is getting this stressed over expensive little cars really worth it? Im starting to really wonder these days..

How does filming silly little cars take up so much space!? This is just the diecast bit and nothing else 😲
I just cant bring myself to delete old files. I will just have to buy more hard drives 🤣
But I see this as a pretty cool achievement...If nothing else 👌

To all my UK peeps! What cases are your local stores stocking? All I see for miles is 2023 P case cars. Is it just my area that seem to have a bulk load of these that wont shift? I'm really hoping for something new soon, seeing all the USA lot open up 2024 cases has me on the downer..
Thanks for reading be sure to let me know what cases you are getting for uh... SCIENCE!?

I was robbed. And I feel sick to the stomach.. I have been uploading fairly consistently for like 5 years now and while I never want to stop this might cause some issues. I really do hope to keep bringing regular content but the next few weeks will be a real grinding challenge. This isnt a "woe is me" post and I dont intend many to read this but to the few of my amazing frequent viewers I just wanted to say that if my videos are not 100% the next few weeks this is why.
Some scum of the earth (I have other words for them I can't say here) have broken into my van and stolen a load of my tools. Tools I had bought over the past 5 years and need to do my job. And of all the times at a moment I have zero savings. A few days sooner and my tools would have all been inside my home. Im unsure if this was planned or just their luck they got in my van when tools were in it. So now I am stuck, no money, no way to work and a van with completely buggerd doors and locks. Police can't do a lot and I could never really afford to armour my van properly or get tool insurance.
Now shit happens and sadly this is a growing occurance, more vans around the area were also broken into. I feel for anyone who has had this happen to them also.
So far the total of what is missing is nearing the thousands and keeps adding as I realise more and more that is missing! All for tools for a job I hate anyways ugh!
The real reason I post this here is just to say that obviously for a few weeks, or months even as I slowly build my tools back up to where they was. I will be unable to spend anything on hobbies and that will greatly effect content here. Video creating is one of my biggest hobbies so I really dont want to lose this small channel I have built up, and still hope one day will become something...
I do have some previous RLC orders to arrive yet so videos of them will come out, and I plan to make a interesting video on the new 'Hot Wheels x Daniel Arsham' mattel release. Providing I can get the motivation built up in time.
-Thanks for reading. Wish everyone well and best of luck as always. (except for the tool theives they can fall down a well)

Who is picking this one up then?? Looks pretty neat, but is the pink all worth the hype? Personally, I don't have the cash to waste, especially after the last pink edition fiasco.. one more for you guys to snap up on October 10th!

Microsoft why! Sorry for the content break, lads. I've had a lot on, and the moment I get some time, Windows yeets. Had trouble with opening videos with "application not provisioned" for a while now, but images suddenly didn't work, so I delved into fixing it, and it ended up with me watching windows die with each failed attempt. By the end, apps wouldn't open. Start menu didn't open. Settings a no go. Using commands it seemed a file was either missing or corrupt..
Fingers crossed reinstalling windows sorts it, but from what I have seen researching, Im not confident.
Shame as I have some awesome stuff to show you guys! It will be out asap. And to rub salt in a wound, this happened the same day my maye dropped my camera, ruining my lens.. (luckily, the cheaper one)
But yeah, for now, here is said broken lens. My dog and my van (partially loaded) hard at work cus why not. Cheers for reading! Wish everyone well.
