Die-cast version of NASA Curiosity is a scale down tribute
The NASA Curiosity is on a one-of-kind mission that will have us gripped to our seats, come August 5th. Hot Wheels managed to replicate the same in a die-cast version that scales down 64 times the real deal. This ‘toy’ will reproduce the motor, drill, camera and laser from the $2.5 machine and scale the price down, even lower, to a little over a Dollar. The tribute may be fitting in many worlds, and many galaxies, but we’re keener on what this real rover is up to.
