2022 Hot Wheels Max Steel Rod Squad 4/5 #224/250 Blue Gold New Model HCT29
Add a unique modern hot rod to your collection with this 2022 Hot Wheels Max Steel, #4 of 5 from the Rod Squad series and #224 of 250 in the 2022 Hot Wheels mainline.
Finished in a distinctive Matte Moody Blue, Max Steel features contrasting gold graphics, racing number 54, a gold center stripe, exposed dark-chrome engine and classic hot-rod styling.
Inspired by 1920s highboy hot rods, Max Steel combines a tall open-wheel stance with a low-mounted flat-six-style engine and single-seat speedster design for a look unlike almost anything else in the Hot Wheels lineup.
Even better for collectors, 2022 marked the debut of the Max Steel casting, making HCT29 the original first-year release.
Perfect for collectors of Hot Wheels New Models, Rod Squad, custom hot rods, first-year castings and unique Hot Wheels original designs.
Condition: New in original packaging. Please review photos carefully for exact card, blister, vehicle and overall condition.
🏁 Collector's Notes
The Max Steel made its Hot Wheels debut in 2022, making HCT29 the original first-year release of this casting.
Designed by Sonny Fisher, Max Steel takes inspiration from 1920s-style highboy hot rods but uses a distinctive Hot Wheels interpretation featuring a low-mounted, air-cooled flat-six-style engine and single-seat speedster body.
The debut HCT29 version features a Matte “Moody” Blue finish, gold racing number 54, Hot Wheels side logos and a gold stripe running over the hood and rear.
Max Steel continued to appear in later Hot Wheels collections, making this original 2022 Rod Squad 4/5 release the starting point for collectors building a complete Max Steel variation collection.
Collector Tip: Despite the name, this casting is unrelated to Mattel's Max Steel action-figure franchise.

2024 Hot Wheels McLaren Solus GT 70/250 HW Modified 6/10 HTB68 Blue
The McLaren Solus GT is a high-performance track day-only sports car designed and manufactured by McLaren Automotive. Designed by Rob Melville, the car's aesthetics are heavily based on the McLaren Ultimate Vision Gran Turismo featured in the Gran Turismo series of games. The Solus GT is powered by a 5.2L Judd GV5 V10, making 829 horsepower. As a part of the McLaren Ultimate Series the Solus GT is expected to be produced in limited quantities, with 25 slated to be produced.
Collector's Notes
The McLaren Solus GT is one of the more unusual modern McLaren vehicles represented by Hot Wheels.
The casting originally debuted as a 2023 Hot Wheels New Model, making this Metalflake Blue HTB68 the casting's second-year mainline appearance.
For 2024, Mattel moved the Solus GT into the HW Modified series as #6/10, with this blue HTB68 serving as the standard color release.
Two additional 2024 versions are documented: a ZAMAC Walmart Exclusive (HTF47) and an orange variation (HTD14). This gives collectors the opportunity to build a three-car 2024 Solus GT variation set.
The combination of McLaren licensing, exotic track-car styling and multiple documented color variations makes the Solus GT a strong modern casting for McLaren-focused Hot Wheels collections.
