We in the Hot Wheels community are trying to find a Missing promo for one of two unmade Hot Wheels:Acceleracers film and two scripts for the final Acceleracers films. I kept suggesting to my fellow Redditors and Hot Wheels Discord server gang on putting it on LMW But I felt I'd share it since no one else did
.
We have two people who confirmed to have seen the Promo
A redditor named Sun617 who brought it to light but sadly didnt link it saw it around mid 2016 on Youtube which was taken down
shortly after.
Though some doubted Sun's veracity on the matter, a former Mainframe Animation employee who worked on the Acceleracers films confirmed the existence of the promo
and
confirmed it is sitting in the Rainmaker Entertainment's animations vault. However he mentioned in order to release it, Mattel must give the two parties consent to do so, And they haven't responded to fans requests, redirecting them to the comment that they had used those designs to make a McDonalds promotional toyline. Effectively dodging the question.
As I stated, It was on Youtube for a while But presumably it was taken down by either Mattel or Sony who had held the rights at the time. This is because in a press kit from Sony dating from roughly 2009, Hot Wheels Acceleracers was trademarked via the 4 films previously made by Warner Bros with two "additional material" along with them. Presumably these were rough drafts of the final films and because of the trademarking and how The series ended on a cliffhanger because of the two films cancellation
, some have wondered if Sony would have finished up the last films prior to Mattel Creations buying back all the rights to the films, only to have their trademarks expire,
Many fans like want to find them Because we love the show to the point where we want to save it in any way we can. It has gotten to the point where some of us have started dreaming about it in our sleep, including me.
yes really
In addition, there are some hard to find scenes in Episode 4 of the Acceleracers prequel Highway 35 that were only on TV brodcasts on 2003 Toonami Video Entertainment System block and a rare VCD in Southeast Asia that contained extended and deleted scenes from the episode That we are also looking for
. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlINU4knENk
some have resurfaced in Spanish
but one scene has yet to in any language, where a character named Dan Dresden (played by Scott McNeil apparently) says "Yeah, I'm willing to set aside competition...for now". a transcript from the VCD can be found here accelepedia.com/detail.php?db_id=390
Any help for us would be greatly appreciated(edited)
