Hot Wheels Releases 50th Anniversary Jaws Set

If your shelf’s ready for a shark attack, this one’s for you. 🦈

The Hot Wheels 50th Anniversary Jaws set, a limited-edition collectible that recreates the iconic shark-attack scene from Spielberg’s 1975 film using die-cast vehicles at scale — a collaboration that treats a movie’s most terrifying moment as something you can race across a living room floor

Hot Wheels is celebrating Jaws’s 50th anniversary in style, this time without wheels. Instead of muscle cars, this release features a die‑cast Orca boat, a miniature deckhand figurine, and an ambushing great white shark, all frozen in a sea of sculpted plastic waves. 

Packaged in retro window-box art and including a pull-out poster of Quint’s doomed chase, this set brings the original film’s iconic tension to collector-ready form.

Dropping July 24 via Mattel Creations for $32 with a two-per-customer limit, this diorama-style set proves that nostalgia doesn’t need wheels to make a wave.
