Volkswagen Beetle – 1:64 Scale Diecast Model

The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most recognisable cars ever made, with more than 21.5 million produced between 1938 and 2003. This diecast model is the Hot Wheels “Tooned” take on the classic Bug – squished-up cartoon proportions, a huge exposed blown engine with a blower scoop at the rear, a Stinger-style exhaust, and a flame decal on the side, all finished in a rich metallic blue. It is a fun, exaggerated tribute to the world’s most-loved people’s car and a great display piece for any Beetle or Hot Wheels collection.
