Lamley Preview: Is Mountain Drifters the Best Hot Wheels Car Culture Release Ever? 

I asked the question, and I don't know if I know the answer. But holy cow this set is nice. I loved doing this video, so enjoy! BTW, what Car Culture set do you consider best? Maybe I should do a video ranking the top Car Culture sets?

This has to be the best set of 2022 without a doubt. From the insane card art to the castings all looking spectacular and with a chase?! What is there not to love about this set?! Love the background as well for this!

Related the comment about the NSXs wheels. Hot wheels needs a midsize wheels. Their large wheel is way too big. Hot wheels also needs a large basic wheel that has the same size rim as the smaller wheel but a thicker tire. The huge rear rims need to go. Awesome set. Great video.

Hi Lamley! Congratulations on such a big accomplishment, I have been watching since before I started a RU-vid channel and it’s been about 3 years since I’ve started watching. After watching you, I decided to take collecting to a new level and have more fun waits it, and now I somehow have over 5,000 Diecast cars!!!

i love how they have the zenki tail lights on the initial d trueno vs the kouki tail lights on the other colors. attention to detail is 👌

This car culture so nice. I am get the normal one. LBWK in red. That LBWK in black price so high. Anyway thanks for sharing this beautiful casting 👍

For me no order, Japanese historic 2. Dragstrip demons. Silhouettes. Thats one tough question Mr.!

Amazing video, both cars and the view are great!

2 months later. Series just dropped here in Iowa and somehow found the chase. This set is truly perfect in my eyes.

I’m surprised there’s place that still has snow on the beginning of may! Very cool cars! Keep up the great video 👍

Best die cast enthusiast and reviewer in the game. Absolutely stunning surroundings. Thank you Sir

I will be on the lookout for this set its gonna be a hard one to find...nice view in the snow ❄ 👌

Awesome set 👏😀👏😆 definitely will try to get one.

Would love to see a Liberty Walk Car Culture set 🔥

Man I LOVE this set! I especially like the chase cars that make it more interesting and in other sets as well! Liberty Walk is sooo cool I don't mind having a lot of NISSANS I've collected a good set of them already and I like to have more😃 This was a great video bro Thanks for sharing👍❤⭐🙏

The Celica look at the great wheels they dont look plastic! love this one!

Okay, I don't wanna sound rude or like I'm stereotyping, but it seems that Americans don't seem to be too excited for the Celica because of the general lack of interest in WRC, and the reason why Europeans and Asians are going a bit nuts for it. The Celica was a hugely influential car in WRC, being the first Japanese car to win the championship, as well as introducing anti-lag (and the turbocharger controversy is a whole another story). That, and this being an exceptionally well done casting in factory looks is why it's my favourite of the set. Could've been a different colour (silver or green) with non-chrome wheels, but I'm not complaining at all.

I'm on the hunt for these and the red Honda Civic ef (Target exclusive). Can't wait!

Hot Wheels hit it out the park with this set. Such a great combination of drift spec JDM cars matched with perfect wheel choices. Not that I don't like the current deco, but if I absolutely had to nitpick, it's that I wished the AE86 had the classic white panda colour scheme even if it were without the Initial D license. Otherwise, hands down my favourite Car Culture set this year.

Thank god i preorderd a set! this is the best set of the year hands down!

Time will tell, but this is a top 3 set 👍

Man that set is killer hope I can find a set in Philadelphia,love the Nsx it would look great next to my real life car a 92NSX great video

That’s is amazing 🤩 collection bro

This set rivals Modern Classics in terms of how good it is. Each edition is fantastic, but my favorite has the Liberty Walk R34, especially the chase. I haven’t found any Car Culture chases yet, but here’s hoping

Grabbed a nsx for my collection. Don't collect any of the other castings but can agree, what a great set!

Wow, I haven't been to Brighton in years! Oh, yeah, cars.

Not sure if this is the best Car Culture set ever released, but for 2022 it seems like it is. The Toyota AE86 has some really nice artwork on it. But the stars here are the '95 Toyota Celica GT-Four (wich looks better out of the package in my opinion) and the R34 Super Silhouette Skyline wich looks fantastic, and a serious candidate for best Premium HW casting for 2022. And you're right about the Mitsubishi, the right set of wheels really improves the overall look of any model. Card art is beautiful too. Thanks for actually heading to the mountains to showcase this amazing set Lamley!

Hoping to see this set on the pegs soon.

Epic scenery to match some epic models!!

Beautiful scenery beautiful set! Celica is my favorite

I love your videos so much ! :)

I'm enjoying the view Lamley!!

Damn this set is one of the best I have seen next to the door slammers too 😎✌️

This set is so cool! Like you said. Darn near perfect! I honestly don't know what my favourite is. I think it's between the ae86 or the r34 (original colours) or the nsx. All pretty dope tho

Happy 10th birthday

Awesome unboxing 🔥👍

Really fantastic set

Bro hotwheels liberty walk is something I never expected to see today. This is crazy!

Beautiful Set

Yessss I’m. Glad you in the hobby 🔥welcome

I respect your words on nissan being cool with licensing. I'm glad others appreciate it, which is why I don't complain about getting so many nissans and datsuns

Best set! Beautiful Mitsubishi, R34, Celica, and the NSX Type R! Can’t wait to get in a cheaper price, great job this time Hotwheels! We definitely need classic JDM cars nowadays instead of modern

Great set and I'm on the hunt. Inno64 also came out with a lbwk r34 and it's probably nicer than the hot wheels version but pricier

A BEAST of a set!

Wow... hard to pick a favorite!

I have this set on pre-order but I'm sure I'll see it in the stores first since the Deutschland Design set is still not shipped to me. I can't wait to get this set!

I like these sets, more car cultures!

They are all great. I see them very hard to find when hit the pegs.

i picked this set 2 days ago and got a chance to hold, for a few minutes, the stunning chase of the LBWK Skyline. What a beauty. But the seller was asking 110 usd for it :( Anyways, great set all around, but boy is the Super Silhouette hommage (chase or regular) amazing.

I love the whole set bro my favorite one is the anime 86 i need it for my collection

The skyline chase is going to be a grail piece for me. Finding it hovering at price on ebay between $600-700, all sellers are over the big water so far, can't find it for sale in the US yet.

Not a big Celica fan for those yrs but i must say that one is very well made & I definitely will pick one up. The VR4 is awesome but it doesn't look well painted (factory flaws?) beautiful color but no painted right. The whole set is well done.

I just ordered the Celica. I like it a lot.

I had the chance to grab the whole set at my local walmart, only got the ones I liked but regret not getting the whole set. Ronin run is gonna be a contender for best jdm set along with this one

Nice!! I just bought the Harley Davidson die cast set of 6 by Maisto for $100 Cdn.

It's funny, there are several HW premiums I want right now but cannot find at stores. I ordered my first RLC only to find it is back-ordered until at least July. But you want to know what made me really happy? I found the silver Honda when I stopped in a different Target and completed my collection. Sometimes you have to appreciate the simpler things.

Hey there! Love your channel and the material you put out! Just a quick question, as a small collector, I was wondering if you knew where to purchase Hot Wheels Display Cases (48 car storage)…for a decent price? Thanks in advance! 🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼

Apart from the Mitsubishi that it's not bad but a re colored version, the rest of the set is so good! I wish I could find the chaser but I know it will be so hard. But really can't wait to get it!

I pre-ordered my set a few weeks ago and will snag a few extras at Target from time to time when they come out

The whole set is great but it's the chase for me.

That’s my favourite generation of Celica. 4wd turbo rally homologation? Yes please.

Awesome

The point about Nissan is a very good one. I used to be into car art - and buying Tshirts with car art on them. Many brands would issue lots of takedown notices to artists selling on the major platforms - but Nissan was cool with it. Totally cool. Many others were too (including the US brands) but others were not (Volvo, VW etc)

I just found this set in Walmart but no chase unfortunalely, I've got the 10 pieces box also found a buch of Hotwheels Blvd with rhe Lykan Hipersport, 75 Datsun sunny truck, Land Rover Defender, 67 Austin mini pick uo and fhe Volvo Amazon Esttate.

Definitely a great set, although some of them are not my favorites. The new trueno casting looks great as always and I liked them all in the premium version, but for this one... idk, the anime decal just seemed off imo, so I don't really feel that amazed. But those bronze TE37 though, man they are really nice to look at! The mitsubishi and the nsx are nice castings, but I'm not actually a fan, sorry. As for the celica gt4, that looks nice, but what makes me really stoked to see this casting is for it to be done in castrol rally deco. I'm a big fan of that version and hopefully hotwheels could realize the idea! Lastly, the diva of this set is definitely the LB ER34. Never thought HW is going to do this casting, and for what it is, totally exceeded my expectation. definitely going to grab one for display! Great set, and great review. Thanks John!

MUST BUY ALL!!!

Gonna get the whole set

That Celica is awesome

The Celica GT4 is my absolute favorite. It's the only one in the set that I got.

Damn!!!! 🔥😌

Any chance one of the three releases this year of the LBWK R34 making it into mainlines?

私もスカイラインとAE８６は購入しました Amazonからまだ届きません セリカもかっこいいですね！

gotta say, celica is my favorite because my dream celica gt4 is the exact yellow but with the white wheels of the nsx so probably gonna swap those ones

Seeing the R34 liberty walk and having you talk about how Nissan is game for doing these castings gives me some hope hotwheels Porsche and liberty walk team up for a beautiful casting

I would love to see Hot Wheels do a set dedicated to itasha cars like the AE-86.

i hope i can find some of this car in my local target if i get lucky

They need to do an Initial D set. Trueno and NSX are sick!

Hey Mr Lamley - Watching from Australia, Yes the cars are really nice, Love the Celica in particular but I have to say I am totally blown away by the scenery in this video. Have to say it is one of my all time favourite Lamley Group Videos. Can you do a follow up opening in the next couple of months from the exact same spot so we can see how beautiful it is in Spring. 20x Thumbs up on this one. PS: In Australia we pronounce the Celica along the lines of Sir-leeka. said quickly sirleeka....

I love that 3000GT so much

Are these a TARGET only release or will they be at Wal-Mart too?

Did you make your nice little turntable display??

Kick ass opening I had flashbacks to the beginning of The Shining Too bad you couldn't have fair used the music from the movie

Squint your eyes just enough for the Mitsubishi to become a Nissan skyline

Dear Mattel please release the Celica in white! And the skyline liberty walk in the calsonic blue

I would love a set but scalpers in Southeast Wisconsin have decimated our stock. Started in late 2019. It's so bad I just order rlc cars. I don't hunt much anymore. If I see something, I buy it. Otherwise...... it's all over in my area.

Both Skylines are smackin!!! Throw in a couple Truenos and I'll be set!!

I bought them all today for 42 bucks and found the chase for sale on eBay for 180$

The celica and GTO are my favorite

Cool set just not a fan of the two toyota models but love the nissian, honda and mitsubishi models

We need a 400R version of the Skyline.

I just bough the Hot Wheels mountain drifters Toyota AE86 and it looks cool with anime livery

Nice nice.

Will the uk ever get this set?

The orange peel on that Mitzubushi

Need to share the link and tell us how to order these.

whats your current thoughts on the chase and the red skyline today? .. I know the video and comments are over a year ago..

NSX R did come with white wheels...I wish they made the middle wing part black like the real one.....

Help me w this one why Hot Wheels does not make the 99 Nissan máxima a30 from the first movie F&F Vince’s car.thanks 😁👍

I'm so glad that itasha culture got into Hotwheels Premium somehow.

where can you buy these cars?
