Hot Wheels is a brand of scale model cars produced by Mattel. Although long seen as rivals to Hasbro in the toy industry, in 2023, the two companies entered into a partnership to produce co-branded toys and games based on each other's respective intellectual properties.[1] Among these are several Transformers-themed Hot Wheels toys.
