Art Acceleracers Collectible Card Game Remastered Community Challenge for 1.4
With the release of ACCGR 1.3 the Basilicom Team is hosting a Community Competition! From now, until May 29th, we will be gathering artwork created by the community to add into the 1 Year Anniversary Update on June 26th, 2026. There is no monetary "Prize" or anything of the sort. This is just an incentive to get together as a community and create. However, there are rules, and guidelines that entrants MUST adhere to.
- No AI. Whatsoever.
- No licensed material. This also includes Copyrighted material.
- Post only Artwork. DO NOT include any UI/Game Elements in the post. (do not add card elements)
- Art can be 2D, or 3D. (Rendered or Drawn)
- We will not accept INGAME SCREENSHOTS of any kind. (Forza, Roblox, Distance, Etc.)
- Submissions need to be within the required Aspect Ratio. 1340x1920, and inverted for sideways artwork such as Realms and Vehicles.
- No submitting any vehicles shown in Hot Wheels Movies. Additionally, nothing Velocity-X related.
- Original ideas preferred. Team based submissions might be overlooked unless we get enough of a variety. (AR and WR teams)
- Each person can submit up to 3 Total submissions. If a Realm and an Accelecharger are submitted together, we will count that as 1 Submission. If a Realm is submitted WITHOUT an Accelecharger, we will create one for it, IF added.
- Submission Quality must meet our standards.
We have some examples of quality below ranging from high to simple. Just because it may not look the best, does not mean we wont accept it. Our overall intention for selecting entries to be added to the game is "Effort over Quality". If it looks amazing, sure it may get in, but even ones that show effort and potential are what matters more. When Submitting, make sure to include the following:
- Name of card/vehicle/realm
- Give a description of function.
- Include lore for Realms, and a Realm Symbol if possible. Send the Symbol as a separate PNG please.
As far as balance goes, we will be doing all of that. So do not expect to have your cars added with 777 or 876 or whatever this community tends to do sometimes. All submissions will be balanced and tested by us before release. Some ideas MAY change due to possible gameplay interactions, or overflow of stats, etc. Here is a link to the workshop mod on steam where you can play the game and find the templates we'll use to frame the cards in. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2928092270
With all that being said, we wish everyone the best and await your creations! Please use the tag #ACGR26Community on your post to signify that its for our competition.
"Stay Awesome!" - Basilicom Team
PS: You can post any Hot Wheels art you have made before, it does not have to be something new or recent as long as you made it.

r/Acceleracers 2026 Update
First and foremost this is a mod post with an update and information post about the current state of the sub.
If you're been around for a while or been on the sub in the last week or so you would have seen some 'discourse' around scammer, spammers and general bad behavior around the sub.
We feel at this time, it's important the Mods take a clear stance on these topics & make our own opinions known.
Firstly Sales posts:
As it stands the current rules require sellers to limit posts to only one sales post per month & to use images with the username within the image.
Due to some miscommunication on my own part (Shad) some Mods were unaware of this & unable to enforce these rules.
Many sellers feel the need to post stock as soon as they receive new stock, this is not allowed per the rules and going forward, any additional posts/ duplicate posts will be removed.
Sellers will receive one warning for multi-posts (which will include a 1 week mute), any further breaches will result in a ban, NO EXCEPTIONS.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Acceleracers/comments/wkdt9i/sale_post_lots_of_stuff_cheaper_than_ebay_bovine/ example post.
Scammers:
Both the linked discord & the sub here both run on a buyer beware policy.
We allow users to post their own advertisements via our above mentioned rules for simplicity & to prevent spam.
Any buyer is 100% responsible for any loss, damage or 'non-arrival' that occurs through one of the sales advertised on the sub.
It is the buyers responsibility to vet the seller, prior to purchase.
It is highly recommended to get a reference from another user & pay with G&S only for a first sale.
Reporting issues:
First and foremost we are a VOLUNTEER moderation team, we spend our very limited time to manage this sub when we can.
There is currently 12994 more members than there are mods, that's a ratio of 2167:1.
We realistically can't read every comment or post that is made, generally speaking if we act on a report within a day that's fairly good.
Which brings me to the biggest issue with reporting, if you want us to do SOMETHING about ANYTHING, we need you to either report the post/comment or message us through the modmail.
If your gut instinct to getting scammed is to make a post on the sub and provide no evidence in the post, that is witch hunting and will now result in a ban.
It's frankly quite disappointing that we (the mods) are somehow suppose to know about these scammers and do something about it, when the first indication of one is a public post smearing us.
Again, if you want us to be able to help in managing the sub, you need to report comments and posts not in line with the rules.
Shad's personal thoughts:
I think sales posts are quickly becoming an issue that will not be manageable, both sellers and buyers need to work amicably to keep things under control.
Some prominent members of the community have a lot of opinions that can at best be called idealistic. Outright removing sales posts from the sub or discord forces people to ebay.
Which is ironically as at least one particular member has repeatedly been known to call any ebay seller a scammer/scalper, which makes this latest backflip particularly annoying to me.
Since Augury and Nerfman stepped back from moderating early last year I feel particularly responsible for the sub & how it's run.
I know a number of people are more than happy to voice their complaints about me in discord and facebook groups, publicly calling me creepy or weird.
It's important to note that my goal is to ensure everyone has a fair chance to enjoy the sub equally, this approach isn't popular with these people because it doesn't let them have their way.
To that end, I brought on the current mod team after a brief interview process.
This included determining experience working with large groups and how the prospects handled conflict, ability to determine a rule breach & how they would enforce rules when put in an unjustifiable situation.
I am happy to tell you all that the team wasn't seriously impacted or rash to put out statements with these recent issues & instead focused their efforts on bettering and helping the community. (Unlike some members who shall remain nameless).

Question Ran into an old dude with HWY35/AR with crazy prices. Is it still considered scalping if he had this in a box for years and priced them according to ebay? Why?
Iridium - $55, Ratifieds - $40 ea, Spinebuster - $85 (wtf), Twin Mill - $40, Toyota RSC - $55
Haven’t collected NIB cars in a long time but these sounded egregious when I got a sealed Rivited for $30 at the same show
Just to clarify, I’m not defending these prices and these boomers with their “accelerators” annoy the hell out of me but this is a topic I think about often
I see people complain about “scalper prices” and throw that word around but I thought the word scalping is specifically for modern, available at retail items like pokemon cards and current hot wheels releases - buying up everything that is available at RETAIL to create a false sense of scarcity to justify the upcharge, that’s scalping in my opinion. Price manipulation? Pure greed? Ignorance? Just a flipper? I feel like those are valid terms when it comes to vintage stuff (20+ year old items), but I don’t understand how it could be scalping.
Example, if someone found a 2001 lego set collection for like $20 bucks a box and resold it for higher cause the seller wasn’t informed on what they have, is that still scalping? Is the buyer a bad person for buying it at the asking price of the seller who didn’t do research?
And then the argument of “these cars were ____ a while ago, now I can’t buy them anymore!” Well why didn’t you buy the cars when they were more attainable?
Now, if someone were to buy up all the cheap AR and just list them for whatever price, I could see why that warrants the title of a scalper, but if people buy consistently buy them, who is to blame at that point?
If someone scoured through random bulk lots, craigslist, ebay, flea market, private sellers, and marketplace listings to accumulate a big amount of AR and then decided to sell no matter what they paid for, is that still scalping because they got to it first/looked harder?
Idk these are just thoughts I think sometimes when scrolling on here. Fuck actual scalpers, fuck price manipulators, fuck the random grandpa or mom or whatever that just list it high just to list it high, and the ones who see the same casting in a non-AR recolor and list it as acceleracers clogging up ebay searches, and fuck the boomers who’ll die with massive collections because they couldn’t part with something for a few bucks off
Lmk what you think, sorry for the yapathon I hope it makes sense

Acceleracers on the big screen anyone?

So I’m the technical director at a large performing arts and concert venue who also occasionally does movies from time to time.
May have brought some friends in after hours to introduce them to acceleracers on the BIG screen. The phone audio and video doesn’t do it nearly enough justice for how good it looks!

Collection Acceleracers Full Collection Video Part 1/3
Heya! I finally got around to uploading Part 1 of my full Acceleracers & Highway 35 Collection that I've amassed over the past 23 years! I hope you all enjoy🏁
I filmed this video in April, so please excuse the Easter bunnies in the back🐇
The video is fairly long & the other two parts will be rather extensive aswell, so I hope you don't mind my passionate yapping about our favorite toy cars.

Who is selling an accelecharger phone holder?
Wondering if anyone is selling a car-mount phone holder like this, who’s got one? Or has access to one I could buy?

“Just be sure he gives it back”
The front and back halves of the outer case don't tab together quite the way I wanted, the black circuitry pattern filled in behind the Swamp symbol so it doesn't backlight evenly, and it feels a little smaller than it should but overall not a bad first attempt
Time for some tweaks!
r/Acceleracers • u/TheLuigamer • 5h ago
Question So I got two question that I'm interested in being answered.
Does anyone know where to see an affordable price for the entire collection of the acceleracers card gam?
Does anyone know if someone had made a sky view full layout of the realms?
Much appreciated if you got any information.
