1977 Hot Wheels - Complete Redline and Blackwall Collection - Year By Year (YBY) 

I was 8 years old in 1977. There are less than 10 of these cars shown that I didn't have. As I was watching I kept shouting, "I HAD THAT ONE! AND THAT ONE! AND THAT ONE!" I had hundreds of Hot Wheels from the 70's that are now highly sought after. I also had several track sets including the Thrill Drivers shown here. When I went to college in 1987 my step mother threw away the entire collection. I only have 3 left. I literally wept as I watched this video, but it brought back some great childhood memories.

You have a great collection. In 2010, I had almost 4000 Hot Wheels, Matchbox and Johnny Lightning vehicles. I had every intention on expanding, but brain surgery in August and again, January 27, 2011 followed by Congestive Heart Failure prior to Super Bowl Sunday of 2011, all of that changed! After my wife walked away, then divorce, I just began giving them away to children for their enjoyment, because collecting didn't appeal to me anymore. It's nice to see others in the hobby, but I still have my SIZZLERS and my memories. I'm sure that I kept a few.

I just keep watching these year by year videos. I watch the newest ones too, then come back and annually go thru the old ones. The best HW videos ever.

Fantastic!!!! Beautiful cars and Collection!!!! Congratulations!!! By Channel Garagem do Chico of The Brazil!!!!

Marvellous documentary on 1977 Hotwheels. Thanks as always for sharing your incredible collection and knowledge.

A fantastic year to collect.

This vid series is amazing! Great commentary and information about the castings.

Great you are sharing informationabout forgery and then the advent of 3D printers is definitelya consideration

Great video, awesome Staff Car !

After looking at what you have for a collection, I'm speechless my friend!! I'm just a regular old collector and I really don't keep much track of what I collect, I just collect what I like. I really really enjoyed this video, thank you very much.

Thanks! I have been waiting patiently for the next video from you. These longer vids showing a collection in detail are so well made & so entertaining. Well done & keep it up!

REALLY enjoying this series of HW by year- keep it going!

Brilliantly done, love the detail, description and pricing GUIDE. I enjoyed that, thanks for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm with all of us, best Hot wheels show on the net. nice one wtffor from the UK.

I always use these as an index, or reference point! So thank you!

Good video. I was a kid in the 70’s and personally I believe it was the best decade to be a kid. Magic time! Hot Wheels,Mego hero’s,GI Joe,Comic Books 15-35 cents) Shogun Warriors and of course the Six Million Dollar Man. Enjoyed your video.

i had half of these as a kid. thank u so much 4 sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing collection! Thank you for sharing with us.

I'm addicted to your channel! I started collecting Hot Wheels because of you!

thank you for your time in putting this all together. you do a great job.

simply amazing collection . The over all quality of the collection is what gets me. As I also have many of the same cars . but not in the condision u have . Its so cool u put this series out . Not only the eye candy but the information on the castings . also u have variations of cars I have never seen . I know how hard it is the time the money years of hunting . Your hard work and dedication makes life easier for the rest of us . Awesome video ---Dreadnok---

Perfect video. Informative speech, great spirit and awesome variations. It's good to have price references too. Even the duplicates boxes are impressive... Concerning condition, I agree it's going to impact value A LOT. I collect loose models only, opening blisterpacks if it's the only option to get a car I badly want. To me, Mint would be 90% of what Tomart's price guide gives (Keeping a margin) - Mint minus 80% - NM 65% - EXC 40% and VGC 20 to 25%. Do you think those numbers are right ?

Your videos are the best keep them coming!!

Spoiler Sport is My Favorite Hotwheels I Just Love the wedge nose the canopy roof window styling finished off with that Awesome Wing. I Really appreciate You giving the price values Your videos are very good for vehicle references.

YOU SHOULD WRITE A BOOK....you are an amazing collector....You know things that are very cool...

Hello is a collection fantastic, are jewels, thank you for showing your collection greetings HW EXPRESS

17:41: The early models with plastic bases had open slots by the wheel axles. Later on by the 80s, the plastic base was whole

Time travel activated, destination 1977.

I loved it! I have a lot of these and 2 of the "really rare" ones

Excellent and informative video! And all cars are in mostly pristine condition wich is a rare sight for practically 40-year old castings. And judging from what you've said, you really have to be careful when you shop for these, as they don't come cheap! Thanks for the detailed presentation and pricing.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Please make a video of how you built your junkyard diorama. I would love to send you photos of my repaints and customized vehicles.

The Buzz Off-The beetle tampo version was produced as part of the same promotion as the "Wisconsin Toy Company" cars. These were produced in 1977 for a detergent manufacturer but the promotion was cancelled while the Buzz Off was in production. As a result, few of them made it to market with some going to Japan in the boxed redline release.

I sure did some tear up my mom's yard making roads with my hot wheels!!

Thats one hell of a collection there; wow, impressive!

ENJOYED, Brotha!! I'm fallin' away from the Newer cars and getting back into the Oldies But Goodies! Great Vid Once Again!!

This is really cool. I still have all my originals I got as a kid from this period. And ai have 90% of at least one version of those shown. It’s cool to see RL & BW versions together.

Enjoyed this guideline. Thank you

Another magnificent video by you.....not only so perfectly narrated but to be able to see a full collection from a particular year nicely presented is wonderful. I myself remember the Hot Wheels from ''68 to about '71 as then interest turned from toys to girls. So for someone like me who is getting into collecting Hot Wheels now at my ripe old age, your videos are an invaluable resource. Thanks for taking the time to post these videos.

I'm a coin collector and have come across counterfeit coins. I've become pretty good at examining coins for authenticity. This is the first time I've heard about counterfeit hot wheels.. but I guess if someone makes money, they'll do it..

Nice trip to the past. Many of them never heard of.

Love your information and memory lane I remember several of the hot wheels I love them and still have a lot of mine from childhood although my friend that I use to play hot wheels with ended up w several of mine. I’m trying to find Monte Carlo stocker and Torino stocker.

very detailed interesting and great video

I had hundreds of 1:64 scale cars No hot wheels mine were 90% matchbox then Corgi n majerette n I loved them so much n WoW I wish I'd kept them cos watching your channel I'm pretty sure they'd be worth a few quid but Hey I Love your collection Thanks

Great Collection Véhicle 👍

I had a lot of those in almost mint condition and their very used condition also. I liked to buy multiples of the same one that I played with. Some I bought never got played with.

wow amazing collection

You know it's cool I had like 90% of those cars there when I was a kid 90% .

Very informative

The black walls GMC Motor Home goes anywhere from CAD $10 to $20 in mint loose condition on eBay, it’s quite common.

I WAS IN 10TH GRADE, WILD

I gotta go through my old ones, I have many of the same models

Very cool thanks

Awesome video! Great collection.

Awesome video as always. You really should do a detailed room tour.

you make the best hot wheel videos! there so much better than mine also I subscribe😀

У нас такой коллекции не соберёшь.((

Staff car - 44:39 Kahaki Kooler - 40:40 Gunslinger- 39:51

Great video! I remember really disliking the chrome ones as a kid. I neighbor of mine has a 1:1 scale GMC Motorhome :) DESTROYED my Staff Car when I was a kid... sad...

Great Video again... Just wondering if you include the shipping in your pricing? The shipping cost are sometimes more than the actual car value. Thanks.

again wtf awesome diecast guru

Baja bruiser my favorite

Thanks!👍👍👍

lol I found a fire eater in a shoe at an estate sale I’m not a hot wheels guy but I noticed the logo is in letter not cursive hot wheels Mattel inc 1976 date 1976 Hong Kong dark red I can’t believe these guys are so nice after all these years

Did you also know that the 2nd wind hotwheel was also used in a cartoon show call "speed racer" as the mach 5..

Nice Carabo

Many of your black walls came with red lines as well, I own a few in redline form.

Buen video...

The 1976 redline Staff car you mentioned $450 value, or near. But the harder to find blackwall in this year only $300, possibly more? I just wondered if you were mistaken before? I have the blackwall.

*When i have a bad day i come here* lol..... CATER*

I still have about 7-8 of those

Cool video! Do you know how much the chrome large charge might go for?

I have that Same Buzz Off with Beetle Tampo. In good shape. Not attached to it either. Just saying. lol

It seems like your prices are really cheap but my only reference is ebay and antique stores. Where do you find em for these prices? Really enjoyed the video. 👍🏻

Wait. I have a question. When you showed the Supervan in the Superchromes series You only a Blackwall version and not a redline version. I know the redline version does exist because I have one in my collection I bought at a yard sale in a box of mixed cars. Is the redline van very rare? is it rarer than the Blackwall van? and if so how much do you think it could bring?

I got lucky and found a Carabo. I did better. I only paid $15 for mine about 3 years ago. I don't have the box but mine's pretty much in the same condition as yours. I did check my posts. All good 👍😁 be curious to know what you might know about "noodle head" from 1970 redline

I have the GMC Motor Home... Can't remember what condition it is in... I think it is probably a little chipped up.

Do you know the value of the black Porsche? I own one. Even though it's nowhere near mint, do you know the value of one?

There is a guy on Ebay you is selling a forged redline motorhome, he couldn't even get the right amount on these wheels, he had the different redline s

I'm not sure how long you have been a this, i'm assuming a long time, just wondering if you have found the internet has helped or hurt the hobby as far as collecting? I think in some ways it's great that you can find anything on there, but then i would think that would make everything less rare because of accessibility.

good

Sorry I can't seem, to find, attachment icon.for pics.

Hey sorry cant remember name of car but its the cutlass army car. As you was talking n how rare and no info on where it came from. Idk but go look at the left front wheel. It is a capped center and the other 3 wheels are normal black walls.

Hi, I find a Chief special with the base said usa and canada I can't find info about it even Mike Zarnock never saw it! Do you know about it?

I think that letter getter always had some tampo missed from new I opened mine because the card was terrible and my tampo is not perfect

Prices have almost doubled on most of these since this video prices now are getting crazy

Engine compartment opened on jet threat in red lines

*******BROTHER YOUR A HOT WHEEL GOD************************************* *CATER*

I cant remember if ive ever asked you this. What is your favorite HW casting? Gmc motorhome 57 chevy 40s woodies Are mine. I heard you say that the gmc motorhome is one favorite of yours. I really like the LEO India motorhomes but cant really afford them. I have lots of the green n orange ones. But no redline :( my dream motorhome to have is the gold one that was made for GMC employees only. But there going for $1,000-$1,200

Somebody swapped the wheels out on that T total....that's why they are loose

I've been looking for a metal base blackwall khaki kooler. You wouldn't buy chance have a lead on one?

So tried to send, you pics. But it says add recipient. It didn't work. Maybe you can help, me do that. Sincerely M.
