Summary

  • Artist Kenny Scharf and Hot Wheels come together for a collaborative collection dropping June 9.
  • Central to the project is a full-sized and 1:65 version of one of Scharf’s iconic “Karbombz!” art cars.

Ever wanted a piece from Kenny Scharf‘s “Karbombz!” series, but couldn’t commit to copping a full-sized ride? You’re in luck. The graffiti legend is teaming up with Hot Wheels to bring his cosmic chaos to the 1967 Ford Thunderbird – in full and toy-sized versions.

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 “Zooom!,” transforms one of the brand’s “Original 16” 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.

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

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 “Zooom!” will release in two editions: 100 signed ($300 USD) and 100 unsigned ($35 USD). Each comes packaged in an acrylic case on a character-filled base, with a certificate of authenticity and a decorative slipcover.

In addition to the art car drop, Hot Wheels will also release a range of wares, adorned with the many faces of “Zooom!”. Head to the Mattel Creations website to check out the entire Hot Wheels X Kenny Scharf collection for yourself.
