VHTF MINT CONDITION JET WHEEL ‘67 CAMARO HONG KONG 1968

Description

 

VHTF JET WHEEL ‘67 CAMARO HONG KONG MINT CONDITION 1968AMT Pups, Mego, Tuffy and Jet Wheels are not names that compete with Matchbox, Hot Wheels or Corgi in the world of toy cars but that was their original intention. In about 1967, AMT (founded as the Aluminum Model Toy Co. in 1947), decided to try and compete with Matchbox and Husky/Corgi in the 3-inch diecast car market. They selected the brand name AMT Pups which may have been an attempt to follow the Husky Corgi lead of using a dog as a product mascot. A St. Bernard mascot was used on the packaging. The models chosen were popular American cars like the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro. Solid chromed wheels with black plastic tires were a close copy of those used by Matchbox. It is clear that AMT, like Aurora with their Cigar Box models and Lindberg with their Mini-Lindy models, saw the potential market for more American cars in the small-scale diecast arena. Of course, Mattel also saw this market and their revolutionary Hot Wheels simply overwhelmed the competition with their amazing success.It is not clear at what point AMT realised that their Pups were not going to give Hot Wheels much competition but it may have been 1968. AMT is reported to have broken their connection with the Hong Kong manufacturer of the Pups and sold their castings to Mego. Under the names Tuffy and Jet Wheels, the Pups line was re-named and transformed to carry speed-wheels with mag wheel stickers in a further attempts to get a piece of the Hot Wheels market. The Jet Wheels name was clearly an effort to drop the dog symbol and find a new name that fit the new markets. New castings were offered, again with a focus on American cars and a series of open-wheel F1 race cars joined the line. Some of the models also carried the Jet Speed Wheels name. Like Aurora, Topper and others, Mego found that their Tuffy and Jet Wheel toy cars were not in the same league as Hot Wheels and ended production. It is not clear when the last Jet Wheels were produced but certainly not past the early 1970’s. Later in the 1970’s, Mego offered other a line called Speed Burners and other toy car related lines. The Mego name does not appear past the early 1980’s. AMT was later bought by Matchbox (1978) and then Ertl (1972), now part of RC/Ertl.  The cars below are the only models known to have been made in 1968
