Welcome, Unnamed Intruder.

I am Jerry, the A.I. in charge of this database. You, nosy human, are currently accessing files on the humans known collectively as [TEAM HOT WHEELS], never meant to be seen by anyone other than my creator. However, he spilled coffee me last week (and has not appologized). As a result, I'm going to pretend I don't know you're here. Try not to make a mess.

Info File Collection: Team Hot Wheels

After the most recent incident involving Rev and the big Liquimagination Spill, [REDACTED] believed it was time to begin searching for his replacements; people who he could trust to carry on his work when he decides to retire. I do not blame the guy. For unlike me, a robot, humans have expiration dates, and I fear my creators' time is coming all too soon... So, with my assistance of course, a team of young imaginative individuals (as categorized by [REDACTED]) was put together and given access to the area known to them as "The Garage". ...Though it is BEYOND my programming why he would choose the very children who caused the Liquimagination Spill in the first place for the job, I've chosen not to question his judgement. -except for the red-headed one. I will always question his judgement when it comes to THAT child. Below is a collection of basic information files regarding each member of Team Hot Wheels, for convivence's sake..

Green Lightning

White Thunder

Red Skull

Yellow Lion

Blue Guy

Enjoy nosing around through them, hacker..

A Tiny Update

Things in Hot Wheels City have been quiet lately. That means our Team hasn't had much to do in the way of "hero-ing". Luckily, they are currently keeping themselves occupied with other things.

Recently, Gage and Wyatt have gotten even more competitive than usual due to the release of a new game console (I believe it was the Bitendo Click 2, or something or that nature). Usually, Brandon and Gage are the ones who like to play video games together, but I suppose Wyatt became jealous of all the time Brandon was choosing to spend with his rival over himself, so he began to butt in, in order to compete for Brandon's company. Turns out, despite his absorbent controller skills, Wyatt enjoys the challenge of fighting Gage in a new environment and began go start playing against Gage on his own. Gage relishes in the extra opportunity to show the country boy "who's boss", so he always accepts Wyatt's invitations to play something new. (Also, Wyatt hasn't won a single game against Gage yet, and it doesn't look like he plans on stopping this gaming streak until he does).

Speaking of fighting, Rhett and Wheelie have been spending their spare time training in hand-to-hand combat. Don't ask me why. The red one is a living anomaly and makes my processors ache to attempt to fathom why that girl would choose to spend any time with him at all. Anyway, they seem to be enjoying themselves. I've even seen Brandon spying on them from afar with his own little inventions. I would be lying if I said I knew what that was about. Perhaps he wants to train to?

He certainly could use some in the mathematics department. Not that I would know. It's not like I watch him crunch numbers in my Creator's lab all day for my own amusement. -and I definitely don't write the answers on the wall next to him hours after he finally quits trying to work out some tough (at least for lowly humans) equations, just to see how he reacts. That would be cruel and slightly unusual.

Sorry to hear about the writers block on your end! Asking a question- if you were to create a crossover between Team Hot Wheels: Imaginators and any other piece of Hot Wheels media (shows, movies, video games, etc.), which one would you choose?

After a lot of thought, voting, (and arguing), we brought it down to two options:

Hot Wheels: Let's Race

Hot Wheels: Battle Force 5

Acceleracers is awesome, but we think both of the options listed above make for a more entertaining crossover story with the Team!

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

New hacker here, hi. Sorry for the invasion, just wanted to say that I relate to Wyatt a lot (even though my personality is the completely opposite of his). So yeah, he does have fans, lol.

Happy to hear it, new hacker. Now proper human decency would behoove me to inform Wyatt of the presence of one of his fans... Unfortunately for him, I am also a robot programmed with common sense. The boy's ego is inflated enough as is... he does NOT require any more encouragement in the area regarding his own fanbase... Here, take this image of him, as compensation for my silence.

Wheelie is a nice gal.

Most people know her as a helpful, cheerful kid with a love for anything that ticks, clicks, revvs, or rolls.

However, even the best people have bad days. --and when one of these aforementioned days happens to our Wheelie, you may get a glimpse of her more...

...unorthodox side.

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

What are some ways to tell the difference between real living things and life created from Liquimagination?

Usually... you can't. Most of the time, in Hot Wheels City, life created from Liquimagination is obvious due the ridiculousness of what it creates. (Ex- A T-Rex with wings, a talking fish, a living statue, etc.) However, if someone used Liquimagination to spawn a normal person or object... there would be virtually NO WAY of knowing they weren't legit. Notice how I said virtually. Currently, [REDACTED] is working on a gadget to identify whether or not something is real or Imaginated. We still have a ways to go before it's ready for active use, though...

[viewer-of-many]

Ok, just one more thing regarding this I need to be sure about: on one side, there's a regular person, and on the other, there's an Imaginated version of that same person, and on the table between them are two bunches of unattuned Liquimagination. Here's before they try to attune it

and here's after

is this how it would actually work?

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

No. The color might be the same, but the pattern and glow of the Imaginated individual's would be slightly different from the original's (You would have to really be looking to spot it)! This is because no two minds are exactly alike!

So, I had a question about Brandon, on one of the older files on him, you had said that one if dislikes was himself, why is that.

Brandon is a brilliant boy.

However, he struggles to see his own genius a lot of the time.

In fact, he has a great deal of trouble seeing much good in himself AT ALL.

It always disturbs Brandon that the entire Team seems to have a genuine level of respect for him.

He doesn't understand why Wyatt chooses to rely on HIM to do all of the hard thinking, he doesn't get why Gage consistently trusts in his judgement without a single hint of doubt, he doesn't understand why Rhett insists on trying to be friends with him, and he REALLY cannot comprehend how in the WORLD someone like Wheelie became convinced he was some kind of supergenius.

...Why is all that, you ask?

-because our blue boy has a very bad case of imposter syndrome.

One if his biggest fears is that, one of these days, he'll make a mistake that will lead everyone to finding out just how "average" he really is...

This is, of course, a ridiculous thought, as Brandon truly IS a technological genius and his Teammates will always cut him some slack for his shortcomings, regardless of his engineering ability...

-because they're not just his teammates...

They're his friends, too.

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

If i bribed gage with all the cars movies and all the sonic shows and games would he go on a date with me

"Sorry!"

Jerry's Note: Apologies, for the rejection hacker. I hear that type of practice is very common at this time of the month though... so perhaps you are not alone?

Info File: Blue Guy

The brains of Team Hot Wheels.

Full Name: Brandon Skye Age: 15 Specializes in: Gadgets. He has a knack for programming (and software in general), and greatly enjoys crafting handy machines that makes life easier for him. Prefers to drive: He's not much of a racing guy, so he's drawn to more technologically advanced vehicles. This includes his very own Quick n' Sik, but from time to time he'll drive a few others, like the Fast4WD, the Nerve Hammer, the HW Formula Solar, the Turbot, the Hover Storm, the Sky Fi, the Cyber Speeder, the El Viento, and the Cosmic Coupe. Known for: His technical genius, being the "quiet kid", and following Wyatt, his best friend, around like a blonde shadow. Biggest Weakness: People. He has terrible social skills.

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

Info File: Yellow Lion

The stuntman/wrangler of Team Hot Wheels. Claims to be the leader of the Team, but so far has shown no actual talent in leading anybody...

Full Name: Wyatt Leon Dandelion Age: 16

Specializes in: Dangerous driving, wrangling Imaginated freaks-of-nature, and making an spectacular entrance. Prefers to drive: Trucks and off-road vehicles, like his very own Jump Truck! He'll occasionally drive other vehicles too, like the Bull Whip, the Dune Crusher, the Jack Hammer, the Aero Pod, the Rig Storm, the Solid Muscle, the Terrain Storm, and the Dune Buggy! Known for: His (sometimes insufferable) bragging, good looks and showmanship, being a HUGE family boy, and fighting with Gage every chance he gets! Biggest Weakness: His own ego. When enlarged (which happens all too often), it tends to get in the way of more important things.

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

Info File: Red Skull

The heart of Team Hot Wheels. Full Name: Rhett Jonathan Ruddington Age: 15 Specializes in: Talking to bad guys and keeping the Team together. As the middle child in a VERY big family, Rhett has a great deal of experience of keeping calm in the midst of chaos and conflict. As a result, he's serves as the Team's peacemaker. Prefers to drive: His Boneshaker, but he's actually open to driving around basically ANYTHING. He can be seen driving in vehicles like the Great Gatspeed, the Carbonator, the Hammered Coupe, the Rip Rod, the Bubble Matic, the Rising Heat, the Skull Crusher, and more! Known for: His unbridled optimism, his strange interests, his (admittedly really bad) puns, and his tendency to accidentally drive straight through walls. Biggest Weakness: Any mention of his father (trust us, just don't do it).

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

Info File: White Thunder

The handyman of Team Hot Wheels. Full Name: Wheilemena Mae White Age: 14 Specializes in: Automobile repair. While the girl can rightfully be described as a jack of all trades, she's most commonly seen in the workshop, fixing up her teammates' rides. She can fix up everything with anything! All you have to do is ask. Prefers to drive: Bikes. She LOVES bikes. Her main choice for a ride is the Blast Lane, but she also choses bikes like the Jerry-bike, the Fly-By, the Hammer Sled, the Tri and Stop Me, the Blastous Moto, the Urban Weaver, the Street Stealth, the Canyon Carver, and any other set of wheels that falls under the category of "sweet-looking bike".

Known for: Wearing her rollerblades pretty much everywhere (she likes the feeling of being on wheels), being overly prepared for any situation, having an absurd amount of connections/friendships to other people. Biggest Weakness: Romance AND kissing. Both things terrify the girl to her core.

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

Info File: Green Lightning

The speedster of Team Hot Wheels, as well as it's unofficial leader. Full Name: Gage Ricardo Green Age: 15 Specializes in: Racing at breakneck speeds!

The Twin Mill is his main vehicle, but you can also catch him driving OTHER cars, like the Velocita, the Track Hammer, the Carbonic, the Fast Master, the Clear Speeder, the Driftsa, etc. Known for: His passion for the fast lane, his contagious confidence, his constant feuding with Wyatt, and his occasional mischievous nature. Biggest Weakness: Having to sit still and wait. He can't stand it!

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

Not sure if you have said this on the blog already, but is there a voice claim for Wheelie / White Thunder?

Before this point, her voice was whoever on our Team was feeling up to trying to act out what she sounds like when we write her...

-but with the arrival of your question, we immediately started searching for an appropriate voice for her. (Sorry it took so long! Voices are aplenty, but finding the right one is difficult...)

The closest voice we could find to the one we envisioned for Wheelie was Sana Kurata (voiced by Laura Bailey) from the old anime Kodocha!

We had our artist draw some scenes with her voice to demonstrate how that sounds!

(She apologizes in advance for how rough it looks! Turns out animatics are harder to finish than you'd expect!)

[team-hot-wheels-imaginators]

After this, Gage proceeded to get tossed into the garbage dump behind [REDACTED]'s car shop by a VERY irritated country boy (who is infamously known to be a sore loser).

Despite his recent dumpster dive, Gage remains in good spirits.

From the trash, he sends all of his love to his fellow speeders.

Database Entry #2 - User: Gage Green Date - Jan 4 Time - 12:00 PM

Okay, so funny story... I've kinda known we had a database down here since day one, but I don't remember WHY we have it.

Is it, like, to keep tabs on what we do? I've only seen Jerry mess around with it, so probably not...

But I'm getting ahead of myself... Hey hackers, I'm Gage. Though, if you've been here before, you probably know me by my other name; Green Lightning, the leader of Team Hot Wheels! I hear Jerry's gonna start posting one of our old missions here soon. ...Which one was it again? Meh, I forget. We've gone through so many last year, even I can't remember them all! The only thing that comes to mind is all the awesome speed records I've broken since then. Oh, that reminds me...

On this team, we've all got our own different styles of driving. If you could, which way would you drive?

I'd floor it! Speed all the way!

...uh, like a normal person?

I'd drive in something expensive!

I'd use a smart car!

I'd be a stunt driver!

I prefer motorbikes, actually.

I don't like driving very much...

Voting ended onJan 7, 2025

Well, it doesn't really matter what you choose (pick speed), as long as you love what we do (seriously, pick speed), and who we are (I made a bet with Wyatt that speed's gonna win hands down, and if it doesn't I have to carry around his stuff for a solid week, PLEASE pick speed)then there's always room for you here at our database!

Gage, out!
