yep, Super Treasure Hunts are rare....they're very limited runs and they have special paint and rubber wheels. But, they are hidden and they cost the same as regular Hotwheels. 89 cents to $1.07 but they are worth anywhere from $20-90 Dollars.

Taken from Yahoo Answers....
"Mattel took the Super Treasure Hunt Series for 2012 and moved it from the Treasure Hunt (Green Stripe) series into the Mainline collector series. So no green stripe, just T Hunt Treatment ie Spectra-flame paint/real rider tires of the regular cars. Super Treasure Hunts are considered Hidden T Hunts, and now can be part of any of the standard series. Idea is scalpers can't just come in and buy up the green stripes, they now have to look through the pegs for the individual cars, takes a lot longer, hopefully not worth their time, and that gives guys like you a chance to find them.

For examples, check ebay - search for 2012 super treasure hunt - there's side by side listings so you can see the difference of a regular car and the Super car. First few out are in the blue stripe muscle mania series."

So some they make a regular version with plastic wheels & treasure hunt versions with rubber wheels? That what I get from that?

Correct, however, the regular plastic wheeled, normal paint version isn't considered a Treasure Hunt...it's just a normal car. It is the best way for Hotwheels to hide them from Scalpers (ie. people/store employees who just find them and turn around and sell them only for profit).

SilverSkoundrel

8/20/12 07:45 PM

That's pretty cool. I think I seen a few of the regulars the other night! I didn't know that! But I'll now keep a look out!

The Regular Treasure Hunts, what are plastic wheeled, but completely different castings as the $upers still have a GREEN stripe.

LOL...yeah, my picture of the Chevelle Wagons shows the regular version out of the card (not a Treasure Hunt). The Packaged one has rubber wheels, different special paint, different art on the card and that is the $uper Treasure Hunt.

Here is the list and pics of the Regular Green striped card Treasure Hunts.
