Hot Wheels monster truck event at Unifi Arena draws in 50,000 fans


BUKIT JALIL: Hot Wheels' first monster truck event in Asia is a huge hit among Malaysians.

The Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live: Glow-N-Fire Kuala Lumpur event recently held at Unifi Arena Bukit Jalil drew in at least 50,000 spectators throughout the three day show.


The event also recorded 21,000 tickets sold on the first day which is the highest single-day ticket sales in Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live show history.

Children and adults got to see monster trucks Skelesaurus, Gunkster, Mega-Wrex, Bone Shaker, Tiger Shark and BigFoot (along with their respective drivers Nick Migues, Rick Steffens, Kristen Migues, Cameron Tweedy, Chris Walker and Rebecca Schnell) cause car-crushing mayhem and stunt performances during the roughly tw-hour per-session show.


This year’s show also introduced the rhino-themed truck Rhinomite who is driven by Darron Schnell.

Participants in the VIP pre-show experience had the opportunity to walk the arena floor and get up close and personal with the drivers to collect their autographs.

Other highlights of the show includes the freestyle motocross (FMX) riders who performed high-flying stunts and a transformable robot dinosaur that could breath fire and crush cars.


Lastly, participants also got to purchase limited edition show exclusive truck models at the event.

An upcoming Hot Wheels Stunt Show which is slated for next year was also teased at the event.
