Hot Wheels: Parking

hot-wheels-parking

100% real.

I think it is impossible for anyone, no matter what age, to see this advertisement and not want to park a Hot Wheels car in one of those spaces.

I certainly did, and then my imagination got a little carried away. I began to fantasize about a whole little Hot Wheels town, with loads of little Hot Wheels car spaces just like these ones.

A little town with lots of little roads and traffic lights, little parks, a train station, buildings and pedestrians. When I was a child, I would have died of excitetment had I ever come across such a wonderful use for my imagination, and such a glorious waste of my time.

Unfortunately, my incredible tiny Hot Wheels town exists only in my imagination, and any attempt that has been made by others to create such a town are all guaranteed to dissapoint. For a moment I even had the ridiculous notion to create a tiny town myself, but then of course I realised that I really don’t care that much. The child in me had taken over for a moment and got a little carried away.

And so, while I dream of a Hot Wheels  town that does not exist, I can still appreciate the little Hot Wheels  stunt tracks and power launchers and super spiral ramps, especially the three-storey, triple action car wash.

In fact, somewhere in between the power loop and the monster flip and crash I have decided that I want one myself.

And not only did this advertisement convince me that I wanted a Hot Wheels  car, it also convinced me – even if only for a split second – that I could build a Hot Wheels  town of fantastic proportions.

I would call this a success.

  2. I definitely want Hot Wheels. And the fantastic tiny town is still niggling at the back of my mind, aswell.

  3. But the parking spaces and parking meters in the ad are at least 10X too large for Hot Wheels, which are less than 4 inches / 100 mm in length.

    Fail.

  4. That is awesome!

    I can just imagine some kid walking up to the meters and parking his little hotwheels car there.

  6. Question:
    If you leave your Hot Wheels there too long, will it be towed?
