With the release of the GMC Syclone in 2020, it was anticipated that Hot Wheels would release a version of the GMC Typhoon soon after. It has been a 4-year wait, but we now have a release date from Hot Wheels! Launching on August 20, 2024, the 1:64 diecast of the GMC Typhoon will be available for purchase. But, there's one small restriction: it's only for Red Line Club members. Yes, you read that correctly. You will not be able to hunt for a Hot Wheels Typhoon on the shelves of your local stores. Instead, Hot Wheels is doing the release as part of their Red Line Club membership for $25.00 per truck.
The Hot Wheels® Red Line Club® (RLC) is an annual premium membership for members of HotWheelsCollectors.com (HWC). For a membership fee of USD $9.99, Club members enjoy valuable advantages plus features of the website not available without Club membership. Also, for an additional $25.00 (plus shipping, processing, and tax), Club members receive the Membership Car Kit.
This GMC Typhoon diecast being released will be a premium with much more details that what you would find in the mainline series in stores. The paint features, engine bay, and interior showcase much more detailed work. The wheels used are of better quality as well.
Expect these to sell out quickly even if you are in Red Line Club. If you're hoping to score one off someone or maybe waiting to you see them for sale on the internet, pre sales have already been put on on Ebay and Facebook Marketplace with prices exceeding $100 on some ads.
Turbocharge your collection with the 1992 GMC Typhoon. Our beastly performance SUV is dark and daunting, boasting a true black body, cool gray wheels, and smoke-tinted windows. Get under the hood to check out the V6 engine or picture yourself muscling down the road with gale-force power. This typhoon’s a storm worth chasing.
