Hotwheels Ferari 599xx ... keren abis :)

 

This Ferrari is just a tad significant, isn't it?

Mattel won't confirm one way or the other, but there is a lot pointing to the fact that we won't see a Hot Wheels Ferrari for awhile.  The obvious hint?  This 599XX is the last Ferrari in the 2015 Hot Wheels mainline, and only the second after the yellow 599 GTB a couple of months ago.

While Maisto is boasting of an exclusive license, the only thing I have heard from anyone associated with Mattel is to never assume anything is permanent.  What that specifically means I have no idea.  Maybe we see a Ferrari in 2016.  Maybe not until 2045.  I guess we wait and see.

But the 599XX is it for now.

And it is a good one to go out on.  Yeah, the 599XX is not the most legendary Ferrari, but as far as a Hot Wheels casting goes, it is one of the best.  It was a hit as a Speed Machines model, it looked fantastic as a mainline in 2012, and to many (including us) the 2012 Super is one of the best Super Treasure Hunts Hot Wheels has ever done.

So, while repeat Super TH's are not everyone's favorite thing, seeing the 599XX return to the mainline as a Super TH is a better option than many.  We will take it.
