I find this book extremely helpful in listing a very large percentage of the current (1989 onwards) Hot Wheels variations. The book follows on from the earlier editions and I find it a very useful refererence source.

If you collect variations of Hot Wheels, you have probably heard of the Godfather of Variations, Michael Zarnock. This guy is nuts about variations and has put together one of the top 3 Hot Wheels collector books ever published. I love the book and have loved it since volume 1 because it has fantastic Blue Card identification pictures and very accurate price guide. If you don't know if a variation is real or fake, just check the Grail, it will let you know if you are dealing with fraud or not. In other words, if it is not in this book you are probably not dealing with a variation. Indispensible to a serious Hot Wheel collector. Gratzi, Don Zarnock.

This is one of three books I use to identify and price Hot Wheels. I feel I would be missing valuable information if I was missing any of the three books I have. Variations - The Ultimate Guide, Tomart's Price Guide to Hot Wheels 6th Edition Volumes 1 and 2. The pricing is different between these books, so you have to really look at what the market is doing and base your prices from that. Before I got these books I was selling cars that were rare and valuable for little of nothing, I wish I had bought these books sooner, it's amazing how little things like interior color, wheels size and origin can change the rarity and value of these cars.

This was purchased for our 4 year old who is a major Hot Wheels fan. He and dad pour through the colorful photographs and line up all their cars that match those found in the book. I am sure from a collectors point the information of the value along with the detailed picture would be very useful. It is a nice thick, heavy paged book that will be around this house for a long time.

I never knew there were so many different variations of the same car. This book is excellent for the Hot Wheel car collector.
