HW 3-pk '12 Acura NSX Concept, Audacious, '55 Chevy


I just found the '55 Chevy in this Hot Wheels 3-pk, months after it's 2017 E-Case release, but it's cool enough to have two of, and the matte black '12 Acura NSX Concept and wildly colored Audacious are worth it alone to me. At nearly four dollars, the 3-pks aren't a particularly good value, but I occasionally find one with at least two within worth the trouble. Check out the video:





The Audacious is one of many of my favorite Hot Wheels original, unlicensed models. Designed by Phil Riehlman for the 2003 lineup, the casting changed in 2011, the rear spoiler now part of the body instead of the window (HW Wikia). This change is shown in the photo below, comparing the 3-pk Audacious with the 1st Edition Audacious. I'd seen this red Audacious in a 10-pk recently, but didn't want to throw down a tenner to get it, so I was quite pleased to find it in this 3-pk! I recently posted on the purple 2017 Mystery Models Audacious also pictured below...

HW '90 Acura NSX - New for 2015!



I loved seeing this  HW '90 Acura NSX in a recent L-case dump! Something about sports cars of this era I've began to take notice of, perhaps the angular body styling or colors, or perhaps nostalgia for the era. The first generation of this automobile produced by Honda for the North American market in 1990, the NSX had an all aluminum body and V-6 engine, as well as Honda's VTEC Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) system.  Check out the video:
