Ever wanted a piece from Kenny Scharf\u2018s \u201cKarbombz!\u201d series, but couldn\u2019t commit to copping a full-sized ride? You\u2019re in luck. The graffiti legend is teaming up with Hot Wheels to bring his cosmic chaos to the 1967 Ford Thunderbird \u2013 in full and toy-sized versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collaboration marks a full-circle moment for Scharf, who grew up in the buzz of LA car culture and, like many, had an obsession with Hot Wheels as a child. The car, titled \u201cZooom!,\u201d transforms one of the brand\u2019s \u201cOriginal 16\u201d models with a cast of fiery red, spray faces. Finished with American Racing 500 Mono Cast wheels and BF Goodrich Silvertown Redline radial tires, the life-sized one-of-one keeps it old school with a pop surrealist twist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full-sized ride is set to be inducted into the Hot Wheels\u2019 Garage of Legends, joining a roster of real-world builds that will go on tour as part of the upcoming Legends Tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Hot Wheels fanatics, Scharf collectors and art lovers alike a 1:64 die-cast Hot Wheels version, which will be available for purchase starting June 9, 2025. Built with a full-metal chassis and neo-classic wheels, the mini \u201cZooom!\u201d will release in two parts: 100 signed ($300 USD) and additional unsigned ($35 USD) editions. Each comes packaged in an acrylic case on a character-filled base, with a certificate of authenticity and a decorative slipcover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the art car drop, Hot Wheels will also release a range of wares, adorned with the many faces of \u201cZooom!\u201d. Head to the Mattel Creations website to check out the entire Hot Wheels X Kenny Scharf collection for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
