It doesn't surprise me you thought of a Gant chart! LOL
Would be cool to have a history of all past cars, though.

The "My Tesla" fan page has posted a picture of the Hot Wheels one, inquiring minds would like to know where to buy it though.

I'm hoping its just shadow or something... but it looks like the one in packaging has a huge pronounced rear spoiler?
Little more info for people looking to find it, based on the package I was able to find this wiki site
Toy#: CFH03
Col#: 217 (also noted on the packaging)
Series: Garage (seems to be interchangeable with "Workshop")
On the official site, you can see a few of the cars from the wiki set listed in the Workshop collection online (such as the Crate 8 or the 2014 Stingray): 2015 Workshop Series Toy Car Collection | Diecast Race Cars & Trucks | Hot Wheels
But the Tesla is not listed

No Hot Wheels Tesla Model S.

A metric ton of Volt and other cars though.
Franchised dealers are not allowed to carry them, but you can go to the website and place a $5.00 refundable deposit for a reservation #.
Also there's showrooms at select retail locations where you can schedule a test-play.
I think there's a forum full of crazy folks going bananas until their delivery dates, excitedly configuring their options online and doing extrapolations of their reservation numbers in hopes to predict when they get theirs delivered. As soon as they get them however, HotWheels releases another model with even hotter wheels, so the fun cycle continues.

I found this link to order them: http://is.gd/hotwheels_TeslaModelS
Just watch out you are buying the scale you really want, I couldn't find it documented but I'm sure it's in the fine print.

Yikes, based on the looks of that nosecone and spoiler, I'll be waiting for the Matchbox instead. If only Maisto or Bburago or one of those would make a nice 1:18 or 1:43 Diecast model, with serious details. Or better yet, AutoArt.

You know, I think this is what we get for having a vague "2015" date... I wonder if 2015 will really mean 2016???
Mattel, you aren't supposed to be mimicing the company... just the car!

Pics of both Hot Wheels and Matchbox versions. http://lamleydlm.blogspot.com/2015/05/just-unveiled-2015-hot-wheels-tesla.html
Spoiler alert: Matchbox is def better.

Darn you Bonnie. Brianman spent over 14 hours over 3 days driving to every toy store and Walmart the nav could find looking for a Hot Wheels version just about a week ago. (He even got forced to take a ferry against his will, but that's another story). I thought I might have a chance to spend some time with him this weekend, but when he sees this he'll just want to do that trip all over again looking for the Match Box version. (Which I agree is way cooler!)
Actually, since his Sig Model S is red and his P85D is silver, I bet he'll drive to the ends of the earth to be sure he gets one of each! You for one know first hand he never drops an idea once it's in his head.
:wink:

You should teach him about google. And then calling stores before driving. Because, y'know ... 2015.
Walmart and ToysRUs don't, um, "do a useful job" looking for such things in their stock of every toy on earth. I've tried before, on multiple occasions.
