Hot Wheels Speed Machine - McLaren F1 GTR

Introducing one of my proud collections..

The McLaren F1 GTR from the limited edition series, Hot Wheels Speed Machine. Produced in 2010 and manufactured in Malaysia, there's not many publicly around in the collector's scene here in Malaysia. I managed to take this off a collector's hand with a reasonable price a month ago, and with it still sealed in its box. So its quite cool to have it in my hands on my collector's shelf, where I can proudly showcase. Enjoy!

History

I used to collect Hot Wheels models before, especially these 1:64 scale models. When I was growing up as a kid, I used to play with them a lot when I owned a Hot Wheels city set (you know? The ones with the plastic-made roads, with different sets such as the Car Wash set, Car Park set, Police Station set, etc, which could be joined up with all the roads). Oh how I miss those days playing and growing up with those. Then one day as I was near the end of my high school days, I decided to sell my Hot Wheels collection as I needed the money. But my mistake which I regret to this very day, was not knowing the true value of each of my models. And so I sold about 113 1:64 scale models for only RM100. I feel like kicking myself every time I think about that day.

Now I've just grown into the 20's, and I feel proud in starting my Hot Wheels collection again. It's been tough, deciding whether to get into the hobby again. But here I am, doing what makes me happy! And I'm sharing with all you readers here, my collection.
