Bruce Pascal has a collection of over 4,000 Hot Wheels cars including many rare prototypes. He followed the advice that he shares with clients in the commercial real estate industry, of which he is a veteran practicing in his 32nd year, and he created a 1970s Hot Wheels themed home office. It would have been appropriate for the President of Mattel back in the day. Bruce has the holy grail of Hot Wheels, the rare Pink Beach-Bomb #1 prototype. Only two exist and his is the best example. He was featured on The History Channel’s ‘Pawn Stars’ TV show and in other media as well. In addition to his cars, his collection includes rare and original artwork by famed Hot Wheels freelance graphic designer Otto Kuhni, packaging, advertising, displays, games, and much more.
