About this deal

For 2023, the Hot Wheels mainline is numbered 1 through 250 with color variations not receiving a new number. Originally launched as "A Car For All Reasons," the Range Rover is designed to perform equally well on or off the road. In addition to the backpack and tool kit, a custom Hot Wheels diecast model car of the Herschel x Land Rover will be included with each item, as well as standing as a solo item for sale.

The collaboration project includes all three partners for a triple-item release for Herschel’s 10th anniversary. The Land Rover Series III Pickup is a Hot Wheels casting, based on the real-life Land Rover Series III Pickup which was produced from 1971 to 1985. Definitely a typo in the article, it's marked on the calendrer to go on sale next Tuesday, December 6th at 9:00am (PST), so regular RLC sale time. To ensure that each car in the series is as authentic to its real-life counterpart as possible, our designers scrutinized every detail and proportion. It’s every kid’s dream to bring their favorite Hot Wheels to life, mine was the Land Rover Defender — a vehicle that has played an integral role in road trips with Herschel over the last ten years,” said Cormack.

I truly hope they put the quality and detail that they are “Promising” into this lineup, and actually stick with it.

Due to its 4WD setup and Turbo Diesel options the Defender enjoyed use by civilians, various businesses and even by military and law enforcement (particularly in the United Kingdom where it originated). The original planned release was in November, so I think this article was written back at that time. It replaced the Land Rover New Defender in the 2021 lineup, after a last minute cancellation for unknown reasons. Built to take a bashing, this 1/2 pickup, 1/2 tractor four-wheel drive vehicle rides on a rugged leaf spring suspension. Our team made our Elite 64 series version even better by putting each wheel on its own axle, allowing us to achieve a slight negative camber for the first time EVER on Hot Wheels car.The RR twice won a grueling 6,200-mile race on a course that began in Paris, crossed the Sahara Desert, and finished in Western Africa. We'll see how this plays out, as without a membership there's going to be a whole lot more produced and with some quality issues slipping even with the 30k produced RLC, I hope the attention to quality doesn't get pushed aside. In addition to its special project with Modernica, Herschel Supply continues its decade-old anniversary products, this time with Hot Wheels and iconic off-road car manufacturer Land Rover.

Even the smallest elements, like rearview mirrors and headlights (not normally crafted separately), are featured on some of the vehicles. This line is highly detailed, on-trend with the current automotive scene, and available to anyone (meaning no membership required). Down the road, there are even more exciting cars, including all-new Elite 64 releases of the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL with opening gullwing doors and a vintage racing design; a Modified ‘69 Ford Mustang with removable hood, outfitted for GT racing; and a Lamborghini Aventador with a Liberty Walk body kit and removable bumper to expose the engine. RLC gets spectraflame and "traditional Hot Wheels style" and Elite 64 will give a more realistic model (no doubt rivaling Mini GT / Inno64 / Tarmac Works as the "higher end" 1:64 diecast brands). All feature the metal body/chassis construction and the deco you expect in other Hot Wheels Premium die-cast, but this series was also engineered with more parts than we’ve ever used before —some of them with more than 20 pieces!Born from the dissolution of British Leyland, the Land Rover Defender was an update upon the Land Rover Defender 110 Series introduced in 1990.

The Range Rover is a four-wheel drive off-road SUV designed by Spen King, Gordon Bashford and David Bache and produced from 1970 through 1996. Designed and built to conquer any climate or terrain, the Defender 90's rugged suspension and full-time 4WD was the vehicle of choice for those whose spirit of adventure led them off the paved roads. The miniature car takes after Managing Director and Co-Founder Jamie Cormack’s Land Rover of choice — the Defender — and features a beige paint scheme and tri-branding along the sides of the toy. The Land Rover 90 Defender was the 2-door short-wheelbase version of the Defender with the aforementioned 110 model being the long-wheelbase version.

All castings feature multiple separate parts for added detail, bespoke Real Rider wheels specific to each car and may feature removable or opening parts. This was Land Rover's first true 4×4 SUV after having been convinced that such a market existed; all products prior to this were pickup-style utility off-road vehicles.
