Brooklyn-based rapper and producer El-P and Atlanta-based rapper Killer Mike, (AKA RTJ or as most folk know them, “Run The Jewels“) have released 4 albums since 2013, all 4 free of charge and all 4 are critically acclaimed.
Well they are collaborating with Hot Wheels and Volcom for a really cool, limited edition Hot Wheels collectible. The “Hot Wheels x Run The Jewels x Volcom ’87 Buick Regal GNX” launches on September 22 at 9AM PT and is a must have for fans of RTJ’s music or Hot Wheels collectors. Here is what Mattel/ Hot Wheels has to say about this collab so take a look and bust out your wallet.
We’ve teamed up with hip-hop super-duo Run The Jewels and lifestyle brand Volcom for our latest drop: a stylish Hot Wheels die-cast based on the signature Buick Grand National featured in RTJ album covers and videos. Designed with flair from rappers El-P and Killer Mike, this sleek GNX boasts an opening hood and full-metal body, giving it that trademark RTJ swagger.
