I had the Hot Wheels too, but I remember seeing this one (the full-size one) at the World of Wheels auto show back in the 1970s. The big draw, of course, was the Batmobile, but I also got to meet Bill Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, Adam West & Burt Ward, and whole bunch of Playboy Playmates; a big deal for a 10 year old kid. I do wish I still had those World of Wheels (what WoW used to mean) magazines/programs we bought there every year.
I remember the Red Baron when I was a kid in the 60s. Maybe one of the first Hot Wheels I ever bought. All of these are very old school.
