Children have been the primary collectors of Hot Wheels vehicles throughout the course of their history. But beginning in the late 1990s and continuing now, there has been a rise in the number of adults who collect things. According to statistics provided by Mattel, 41 million children have spent their childhoods playing with the toys, the typical collector has more than 1,550 vehicles, and children aged 5 to 15 have an average collection of 41 vehicles. The majority of people think that the collecting frenzy began in 1995 with the Treasure Hunts. Mike Strauss is considered by many to be the "father" of the hobby of collecting Hot Wheels; since 1986, he has arranged two collectors' gatherings annually in some form. The Annual Hot Wheels Collectors Convention, which takes place in the autumn of each year as it does every year, was the inaugural event. Before 2001, when the inaugural Annual Hot Wheels Collectors Nationals was organised, the conference was held in a different site throughout the nation each year. Since that time, the Conventions have been hosted in southern California on an annual basis. During the spring, the Hot Wheels Collectors Nationals are held in a variety of places that are located outside of California. In addition, since 1986, Strauss has been the publisher of the quarterly Hot Wheels Newsletter. He was also one of the first people to bring together collectors from all around the globe. In addition, he is the author of "Tomart's Price Guide To Hot Wheels," a book that provides a history of the pastime as well as descriptions and prices of individual cars. This book is used by practically every collector as a resource for learning more about the hobby and their own collections. In 2011, Strauss liquidated his collection and stepped down as editor of the Hot Wheels Newsletter.
