LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Do you remember playing with die-cast cars? Maybe it was Hot Wheels or Match Box. Either way, a die-cast collector’s dream is about to get underway in Las Vegas when one of the biggest diecast conventions opens.
Toy Shack owner Johnny Jimenez gave 8 News Now Good Day a sneak peek at some of the Die-cast collectible cars to be featured at the 2025 Die-Cast Super Con. An exclusive release is the IXO 1:64 Limited Edition Dodge Challenger. It’s considered a must-have among collectors and the only way to get it is by attending the show.
“Everyone represented in the industry is going to be here,” Jiminez said.
He also shared a few rare Hot Wheels, including a replica of the most expensive Hot Wheels car in the collecting world. It’s a 1969 Pink Rear-Loading Volkswagen Beach Bomb. There were only two made and one recently sold for $100,000.
The Die-Cast Super Con is the longest-running all-diecast convention, bringing together die-cast fans and manufacturers to showcase the latest releases, future concepts, and even some blasts from the past. Expect wall-to-wall vendors, celebrity appearances, and exclusive convention releases.
The convention takes place at the Ahern Hotel on Feb. 20-23. For more information, click this link.
