Rev up your engines. The annual Mainline collection of Hot Wheels is back and better than ever in 2023. With 250 editions and various variations, this collection is a must-have for fans of all ages.
Hot Wheels Treasure Hunts cars are chase variant cars. They have a lower production run than regular Hot Wheels cars making them harder to find and collect (and thus, more valuable). A set of Treasure Hunts, or T-Hunts, has been released each year since 1995.
It’s here! The “Wave 4 Poster” is the one that features every mainline car from every mini collection issued throughout 2022. Note that Treasure Hunts are listed on these posters, but not the Super Treasure Hunts. Those ones are the hardest of all to find, for those willing to take on the ultimate collecting challenge.

Books from Geek Slop Publishing
Living Truth Bible Study Guides
Despite its beautiful prose, you can’t just read Revelation; it requires diligent study. However, ineffective study techniques can lead to misunderstandings. Rather than imposing strict interpretations on the described events, use the concepts we present as a framework for understanding its intricate code. The Book of Revelation indeed provides more than just a foretelling of the tumultuous end of days. It reassures Christians that divine justice will ultimately triumph over evil and promises Jesus' eventual return as the rightful king of the world.
Chronicles of Enigma
While science and reason often seek to illuminate the unknown, there remains a certain allure in the unexplained—a realm where imagination and reality blur, creating a tapestry rich with wonder and possibility. Stories from the Chronicles of Enigma series endure not just as relics of the past, but as gateways to exploring the depths of our curiosity and the infinite potential of our world. Let us be the light that guides you through the darkness.
