Hot Wheels Entertainment Mix B

Checking one of the Hot Wheels Facebook groups from New Zealand, I saw a post that Entertainment (otherwise known as Retro Entertainment) Mix B had been found at a Toyworld store in the upper part of the country. Checking an independent toy store website located in roughly the same part of the country, I saw that they also had the Mix B wave listed, but with several models already sold out.

I asked at my local Toyworld if they were going to be getting in the Entertainment range as the assortment was actually advertised on special in the toy catalogue and received the typical "don't know" answer that I have become accustomed to over the years.

Resigned to just waiting and seeing if the items would appear locally in the school holidays, I took another look at the independent stores website and saw that all items were restocked and so placed an order.

With a public holiday and weekend in the way, the delivery was delayed several days, but eventually turned up - sadly in an extra large box with no packaging to protect the contents on its journey. As with the first Entertainment mix of 2016, the second mix contained a mixture of "popular" castings from previous years along with a brand new casting in the form of the Batwing from Batman v Superman and a recently released casting in the form of the Aston Martin DB10 from James Bond Spectre.

Already waiting for Mix C to be released and fingers and toes continue to be crossed that the line continues into 2017!
