The Hot Wheels Star Wars Carships lineup have hit the store shelves in October 2016. The cars themselves made their debut at the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con Hot Wheels booth. The cars are designed to represent the most famous starships from the Star Wars series. The name is a combination of "starships" and "cars".
For the launch of Star Wars Carships, Hot Wheels decided to built a 1:1 scale X-wing Fighter carship. This car was for display at the San Diego Comic-Con and Hot Wheels even allowed a select few to sit inside.
