>>8150568old hot wheels had good fantasy castings for max variety and were often metal/metal with better looking paint
new fantasy castings are rainbow colored dogshit, paint looks worse for whatever reason (likely cheaping out) and a lot of the latest paint jobs are boring on real castings and often have garbage rims that are just black with colored outline which looks bad on most cars
furthermore a lot of old fantasy castings were based off of real cars i.e. commando is an 80's flareside f-100
