Often our little cars yell out to us and we can hear
them "FREE ME".
Let me out into the world!
When these times occur we always oblige and free our cars from their blisters
and their protective packaging.
Larry Kupp demonstrates his method of freeing his cars and I might add it can be quite enjoyable.

| First
you should relax with your favorite beverage (or two or three), and gather the cars around you that are begging to be freed. |
Some
prefer to open the cars of lesser value first, others open cars of the most value first. Actually it doesn't make any difference as long as they are FREED! |
| There
is nothing like the feel of a freshly freed Hot Wheel from it's protective blister. This is especially true if the car is a limited run or rare variation. In this case Larry is holding a freed red stripe Redline Club Camaro. Sweet! |
The
second one is much easier to free and the adrenalin (along with the beverage) rush is actually helping to guide the knife around the blister at an ever increased pace now. Almost free you sweet blue striped Redline Club Camaro! |
| Oh
yes! You can almost feel it yourself at this point. Nothing between the car and your touch but AIR! (Is Larry excited or what!) |
A
freed pair of Redline Club Camaros.
Oh what a feeling! |
| Yes,
you have to touch it once it's freed from the box! |
Much
better now. Both car and owner are happy. |
| Larry is on a roll now! | Oh
yes, I'm a funny car and I do have moving parts that can only be seen when removed from the box! |
|
Freeing Hot Wheels can be very
hard work. |
