Adapter plate Mario Kart trophy for Hot Wheels die-cast toy cars

Adapter plate Mario Kart trophy for Hot Wheels die-cast toy cars 3d model

I created an adapter plate so you can just place die-cast Hot Wheel cars on top of the trophy.

In addition to the Hot Wheel adapter plate, I separated the original model into 4 pieces, 1) the block, 2) the pipe, 3) the post, and 4) the adapter plate that have to be glued together. I did this partly so I could print the pipe and post with supports. The pieces have small pins and holes to fit together. The plate is sized to fit several of the Hot Wheels cars but I don’t have all of them so I can’t check every one.

The small brick is used to prevent the Hot Wheel from sliding too far forward on the adapter plate (see cover photo).

Also, when you scale up the size of the trophy be aware that the post may not fit exactly in the groove on the underside of the plate (see attached photo with the silver plate). This is because you will resize all the pieces except the plate. I would recommend always printing the plate at 100%, otherwise the plate will probably be oversized for the Hot Wheels.
