Led Zeppelin‘s iconic albums are being celebrated with the release of a series of Hot Wheels die-cast toy vans adorned with the band’s artwork.
The five-vehicle collection is described by the manufacturers as a “New Hot Wheels Premium series for 2020, in commemoration of the British hard rock group Led Zeppelin.”
They continue: “This collection includes five different models, which present images of the covers of some of their albums, among which we can find Led Zeppelin (1969), Led Zeppelin II (1969), Led Zeppelin III (1970) and Led Zeppelin IV (1971).”
A fifth toy, the “Hiway Hauler”, is a miniature truck covered in art that celebrates Led Zeppelin’s North American tour of 1975.
A dramatic video featuring the five vans being unboxed has been released by the YouTube channel Wheelcollectors, which calls the release “hot off the truck”.

LED ZEPPELIN Led Zeppelin IV (Very rare 1971 UK third pressing 8-track LP on the plum & red label with the printing errors corrected by the careful placement of two stickers, returning the 'LED ZEPPELIN' name to the top of the label & over stickering the 'Executive Producer: Peter Grant' credit that Jimmy Page didn't approve of, as well as adding the missing 'Superhype' publishing credit, gatefold picture sleeve with inner lyric sleeve. The lyric inner is also flipback, unlike later issues. The classic gatefold picture sleeve shows light shelf/edgewear with a small area of paper loss and the inner has a common split along the bottom with few other signs of wear. The stickers on Side Two labels show signs of having possibly been re-glued in the past, while the vinyl is in Very Good condition with a few scuffs to show for its forty-plus years. A very nice copy of this incredibly rare first label edition in far better condition than normally seen!) #Top 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time
