How to remove Hot Wheels axles

AgeingJetty·7 months ago

So you wanna play surgeon with your Hot Wheels, huh? No worries, it's simpler than defusing a bomb! You'll need a few tools first - pliers, a small flathead screwdriver, or even a nail clipper if you're in a MacGyver mood. First, gently pry the axle away from the chassis using the screwdriver. If it's stubborn, use the pliers to carefully pull the axle out without turning your car into modern art. Remember, patience is key unless you want your Hot Wheel to wheel hot off into the sunset minus an axle.

In my experience, heating the base slightly with a hairdryer makes the plastic more pliable, which means you can get the axles out without turning your Hot Wheels into a twisted mess of metal and plastic. Just don’t melt your car - unless you're going for that Salvador Dali look.
