While Mario Kart may be crossing into the physical realm as of late, Hot Wheels is doing just the opposite. The novel title, which combines real-life RC karts with augmented reality, is able to recreate various elements usually seen in-game in the series. This fan took it a step further for their version, which featured 4,400 interlocking tiles to successfully replicate the pixel-esque SNES version of the colorful racetrack. While still a ways away, this isn't the first time a physical version of Rainbow Road from Mario Kart has existed. One dedicated fan created a 3D-printed Rainbow Road track for Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit.

The official statement from Mattel states that due to the erroneous listing, those who purchased the set via pre-sale can receive a full refund through Amazon.Īlthough the statement also says that the Hot Wheels Mario Kart Rainbow Road track set will be available for purchase "this summer," no specific date has been given. The Rainbow Road track includes the die-cast versions of Mario and King Boo in their respective karts and features reconfigurability from an S-curve track into a straight line. Before the listing was changed to "currently unavailable," the set was revealed to cost $119.99, with a release date of May 29. The Nintendo-licensed Hot Wheels set mysteriously appeared on Amazon earlier this week, without any sort of press release, public announcement, product video, or any of the usual fanfare a collaboration such as this would warrant.
