This is a Hot Wheels car, that much I know. But it's really small, less than 1:64 which I think is Hot Wheels' 'standard' scale.

What I want to know is whether this is from a particular series or range of HW toys. Strange request, I know, but I need some more of them, and I don't know what to look for. smile

Looks pretty old with the simple construction and screws in the bottom. Search vintage hot wheels on eBay

The date on the bottom is 1998, so yes, I guess that makes it quite old smile

If had a look on eBay as suggested, but everything it turns up is too large.

I found a Hot Wheels wiki site, showing all the models. Mine aren't there, so I suspect they're knock-off.

How did you do that?! I've spent about two hours Googling this over the past week, and I've never once found "Planet Micro"

It does, indeed, look like the thing. Thank you thumbup
