Description[]
Mad Propz (or Madd Propz) is a Hot Wheels casting designed by Steve Moran based on a racing propeller airplane. It was first to be named the Air Hammer as seen in the above picture on the wing, but was changed before the production process. Mad Propz debuted in the 2004 Hot Wheels line as part of the First Editions.
The tool was called "Madd Propz" until 2007, when it was renamed "Mad Propz" after a complaint from MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving).
In 2013, this casting was retooled, with the cockpit and rear wheel now being a part of the engine. The casting was retooled again in 2019, with the base now covering the exposed wheel axles.
The first release of the casting features a humorous message on the wing:
DO NOT STAND HERE
If you can read this type you possibly
have way too much free time and you
should consider getting a hobby like
flying an airplane just for the heck of
it. It might start you thinking about
trying other new things. Who knows
you might just be the next real flying ace.
