Hot Wheels RC Tesla Cybertruck
Now that people are (mostly) convinced Tesla's Cybertruck is real, Mattel is speeding onto the futuristic EV's merch scene with a Hot Wheels x Cybertruck collaboration. In mid-December 2020 they plan to ship 2 RC Cybertruck designs, one a track-compatible 1:64 scale model, and the other a hobby-grade 1:10 scale model. Both will be limited edition replicas, available only until they're sold out.
No word on whether or not a Mars landscape mat is in the works too.
At printing, images of the Hot Wheels Cybertrucks on the Mattel Creations website were noted to be design prototypes only, so while you can preorder your mini Tesla trucks now, as with the full-size versions, you'll have to wait a while to see what you're actually getting.
