Hot Wheels Teamed With Nike And Paul George For This PG6-Inspired Circle Tracker

There are many die-cast car brands but Hot Wheels is more collectibles, IMHO, thanks to its many collaborations with a spectrum of brands and people. Speaking of brands and people, the latest to join the Hot Wheels die-cast collab is Nike and NBA superstar Paul George who is also huge on cars.

For the collaboration, Hot Wheels teamed up with PG-13 and Nike on his limited-edition PG6 shoe and matching die-cast Circle Tracker. The super cool futuristic stock car, which boasts a cowl induction hood, V8 engine, streamlined shape for aerodynamics, and rolls on premium Real Riders Aero wheels, is now made even cooler with a striking paint job and livery.

Hot Wheels’ Circle Tracker is designed like the new Nike PG6. It features a bold blue-to-red gradient effect, George’s number ’13’, his PG logo, and a checkered roof, before finishing with a checkered flag interior. And as a nod to PG6 that it drew its inspiration, the die-cast collectible is packaged in a replica shoe box. That, my friends, is super dope!

It looks like it is a box-in-box packaging with the outer box in orange and featuring Nike, PG, and Hot Wheels brandings, and on the inside, there is a darker orange (and obviously smaller) box with the car secured in an open blister. The smaller box appears to share the same motifs as the die-cast car’s design.

The Paul George Hot Wheels Circle Tracker Die-cast Car will be available for US$40 a pop from MattelCreations.com starting on November 23, 2022, at 9 AM PT.

If you really want one, we suggest that you mark your calendar and set the alarm because we have a feeling this is going to fly off the shelves. We could be wrong. But it’s better to be safe than sorry.
