I thought the TVR Tuscan looks mental enough with the aggressive looking front but this one is on the next level of mad headlights! Oddly enough these mad looking TVRs remind me of the chimera monsters from the old PS3 game, Resistance Fall of Men.

Hotwheels did some real gems back in the days with their 1/18 lineup that weren't Ferraris.. and this one is definitely one of them. There are quite a few HW oldies that I still like to have, De Tomaso Pantera and Maserati MC12 come to mind immediately.

Ya, I love the headlights on this 😅 I too would like to add the HW Pantera, especially in blue. As far as the MC12, I've had both the HW Elite and now the Autoart, and honestly, the Autoart is so much better that I'd say it's the only option. The HW is out of scale (way too big and long), the rims are comically big, it's one of the worst models that I've ever had.

Yea those headlights are absolute bonkers! i'll be terrified if one pull up behind me and tailgate me. i'll be sure to get out of the way immediately LOL

I too quite like the blue HW Pantera. However the headlights and the chrome rims are the two let down for me. Still, considering the Kyosho Pantera is near impossible to find now those are still one of my viable options.. as long as I can find them at a reasonable price. 1/18 HWs generally appear to be rarer and harder to find here in land down under.

Agree about the MC12's comic rims. Same goes with their Elite and the F430. It is almost like those who assembled the wheels mistaken the Dub/FnF wheels for these models. For the longest time HW version was the only MC12 option but when Autoart finally released them I wasn't ready to pay their asking price so I still won't mind a cheapie HW. But they are definitely hard to find for me at least. I didn't know they were oversized tbh though... I had the same thought about the HW Saleen S7 but only then I realised the HW is more accurate size wise after I got the Motormax replacement.
