BUGEYE SPOTLIGHT

Redline Hot Wheels Spotlight

1971 BUGEYE

The Bugeye was issued in 1971 and was available for a couple of years.

The Bugeye features a long slender type body with each fender divided by a notch at the front of the car, resembling a mouth. The contour of the fenders which comes to a rounded point resembles antennae, but what especially characterizes this model are the two rounded curved domes, divided by a center body support which stands out (bugs out) like a pair of bug eyes. The Bugeye also features a rear opening engine cover that reveals a detail engine. This model was also issued with an unpainted metal base and came fully equipped with medium wheels in front and large in back.
