AIDAN PARSONS

Location: Phoenix, Arizona Instagram: @AP.Diecast Brand: Kaido House Series: Custom Model: BLKLTD4 Custom Scale: 1:64 From The Owner: “This custom BLKLTD4 is one of the top pieces in my collection because of the story behind it, a mirror-less car turned into a custom masterpiece and the start of a new die cast journey!”

JASON T.

Location: Los Angeles, California Instagram: @absolute _ ziro Brand: Hot Wheels Series: Mainline Model: Honda Civic EG hatch From the Owner: “This custom Honda Civic EG Hatch by my friend Dominic (@aloha _ kine _ customz) is currently one of my favorite customs in my collection. The stance, wheel selection, livery and decals just fit perfectly with the car. And did I mention it rolls very smoothly?”

JAMIE PEARSON

Location: Levin, New Zealand Brand: Hot Wheels Series: Night Stalker Customs by Chris Walker Model: Volkswagen Drag Bus Scale: 1:64 From The Owner: “This amazing and very special custom is one of only four that were made for the NZD team here in New Zealand. I was very lucky to be able to add one to my forever collection and it gets displayed front and centre for everyone to see. I love the colour, the design, and how good a story this piece has. It’s always a cool piece to talk to people about.

JEFF KATTINE

Location: Independence, Kentucky Brand: Hot Wheels Series: Flying Colors Redline Model: Z Whiz Scale: 1:64 From The Owner: “I collect the Z Whiz because I had one as a child and it was one of my favorite Hot Wheels to play with. As I grew up and learned the history of the 240Z and the Z Whiz, my drive to own as many variations of it as possible started me down the proverbial rabbit hole. This particular White Enamel Redline Z Whiz came from the Mike Strauss collection and is one of three carded examples known to exist. The gray thoroughly loved Z Whiz is the original from my childhood.
