Description[]

The Rocket Box is a Hot Wheels casting designed by Jun Imai; this was his first design. It depicts a heavily-modified futuristic Blings-styled hatchback. The casting features a logo on the rear that highly resembles the Volkswagen logo, but featuring the initials "HW" for Hot Wheels, instead of "VW" for Volkswagen. The First Edition version came out with many variations ranging from tampos, the number used on the side, paint finishes, and base colors. The tooling for the car was modified in 2011; the rear no longer features the transparent plastic insert and now features a plastic base.
