Hot Wheels Spine Buster Purple — Built to Break Rules, Not Records
You’re not looking at a toy.
You’re looking at a weapon. A streamlined, fenderless, purple-drenched outlaw known as Spine Buster Purple—car #7 in the Metal Maniacs crew, and it doesn’t give a damn about your lap times.
This thing wasn’t made to win by finesse. It was built to rip down the track like it’s got something to prove—because it does.
Designed to Be Dangerous
Forget aerodynamic perfection. Spine Buster Purple is raw chaos on wheels.
No front fenders. Because who needs them?
Deep side pockets that suck in air and blast it to the rear brakes like a turbocharged punch to the face
Angled steel spoiler in the back, designed to slap the rear end down so hard it scrapes ambition off the track
Add in a satin purple body, red and silver flames, and a shape that looks more like a shark fin than a car, and you’ve got a ride that’s less “collector piece” and more “nightmare machine.”
Larry Wood designed it.
Mark Wylde drove it.
And every inch of it screams: “Move or get flattened.
The Hot Wheels Acceleracers Metal Maniacs lineup includes Jack Hammer, Rivited, Rollin’ Thunder, Power Bomb, Spine Buster, Ratified, and Hollowback
On the Track, It’s a Liability—and That’s the Point
This car is so unbalanced it might kill your chances of a clean race.
Front wheels push too far past the body? Good. Steering goes to hell.
Weight distribution’s a mess? Great. That’s how the Metal Maniacs like it.
This isn’t about handling. It’s about horsepower, attitude, and scaring the hell out of everything that gets in your lane.

Why It Still Matters
Spine Buster Purple isn’t a “nice addition” to your collection.
It’s a statement.
It’s a sneer on wheels.
It’s proof that performance stats mean jack when the car you’re driving looks like it wants to hurt somebody.
It’s the kind of die-cast you don’t show off—you warn people about.
Bottom Line
Mark Wylde didn’t drive this thing because it was safe.
He drove it because it was fast, nasty, and barely in control.
Just like him.
Just like you.
So stop pretending you want something balanced.
What you want is Spine Buster Purple—the most dangerous car in the Acceleracers lineup.
Add it to the cart.
And let it do what it was built for:
Cause problems.
