Name: Hot Wheels
Brand: American Pinball

The American Pinball Hot Wheels™ pinball machine brings the energy of Hot Wheels City to your game room with fast, objective-driven gameplay and a feature-packed playfield that keeps both kids and longtime Hot Wheels fans coming back for “one more race.” As the first officially licensed Hot Wheels pinball machine, it combines modern RGB lighting, deep rules, and signature Hot Wheels car collecting into a machine that feels at home in serious collections, home arcades, and on route.

High-Octane Hot Wheels Action With Deep, Replayable Rules

In Hot Wheels™, players race through Hot Wheels City as they collect cars, complete races, battle creatures, and build tracks across a wide range of modes and multiballs. The game features six-ball play, two signature Hot Wheels-colored ramps, and more than 140 RGB lights that animate with every shot, making each game feel like a living, breathing Hot Wheels display under glass. A magnet, player-facing kicker, vertical up-kicker, and inventive shot geometry keep the ball in motion and reward both control players and adrenaline chasers.
