The art of hot wheels

With Mattel Brick Shop, the company merges decades of toy industry expertise with the iconic Hot Wheels brand, inviting fans to explore a more personalised, creative, and collectable experience. Each building set is designed with authentic proportions and attention to detail, featuring real metal components that allow for unparalleled customisation. Alongside each set, collectors receive a matching 1:64 scale die-cast car, exclusive to the set, providing both a hands-on building experience and a display-worthy collectable.

“Hot Wheels has inspired generations of car enthusiasts, and with Mattel Brick Shop, we are giving fans a new dimension to experience these beloved vehicles,” says Roberto Stanichi, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Vehicles and Building Sets at Mattel. “This collection delivers the authenticity and craftsmanship collectors have long desired. Our design team worked meticulously to translate these cars into brick form while preserving the elements that make them iconic, including real metal parts and a matching die-cast car. It is a truly unique way to build, collect, and engage with Hot Wheels.”
