Python Body With Cheetah Base From 1969 – $6,000

The Hot Wheels Python was originally called the Hot Wheels Cheetah when Mattel was designing and creating it. This model took inspiration from the Dream Road by Bill Cushenbery of Kustom Kulture. However, it was renamed before it hit the market. Even so, some Pythons sold had the original base nameplate that said Cheetah! You might make an instant $6,000 if you happen to own one of these babies. This might be what you need to finally go on the vacation of your dreams!

Spectralflame Bye Focal In Purple From 1971 – $6,000

Hot Wheels wanted to make this particular iconic collectible difficult to identify. In 1971, Mattel used a couple of Bye Focal shades like purple, magenta, and blue to make the Spectralflame. You need one of the purple editions in mint condition if you want to bring home $6,000. This item is hard to find since the model tends to go into a “crumbling” condition! For one reason or another, the Spectralflame often developed cracks and started to crumble at a rate faster than other models in the Hot Wheels lineup.
