Hot Wheels Attack Pack (1992–1994) — Series Info & Complete Collector’s Guide
The classic Hot Wheels Attack Pack ran from 1992 through 1994, pairing character-themed vehicles with creature and monster details. The checklist below follows the names and catalog numbers recorded for the line, including color versions and named sublines. Newer Monster Trucks products that reuse the Attack Pack name are a separate range.
What the Attack Pack line includes
Attack Pack is a themed family of different Hot Wheels vehicles, not one casting. Many models use a moving feature that changes the vehicle’s appearance; the exact action varies by toy. The original characters also carry one of two team identities: Heroic Cat Pack or Evil Rat Pack.
The six named 1992 entries are Slashcat 0692, Slaughterjaws 0693, The Darkclaw 0694, Sandstinger 0695, Taran-Chewa 0696 and Rip Rat 0697. Separate color records followed for Slashcat, Sandstinger, Rip Rat and The Darkclaw. The toy name and number together help distinguish each record.
Attack Pack also included the Big Ones, Biggest Ones and Growlers sublines. Big Bones appears with the Big Ones, while Big Chill is part of the Growlers. Their linked model guides cover those toys’ own construction and release details.
Attack Pack sublines to recognize
Several toys were grouped under a named subline. These group labels are useful when comparing package references and separating the larger character vehicles from the standard entries.
| Big Ones | Blowtorch · Big Bones |
|---|---|
| Biggest Ones | Slime-inator · Skeletalker |
| Growlers | Big Chill · Grizzlor · Mane Mauler · Jungle Jaws · Sibertooth · Thunderbear |
Big Ones and Biggest Ones are distinct groups; Growlers is a separate lineup within Attack Pack. The year-by-year web below keeps every cataloged Attack Pack record together.

Teams and markings
The original six characters divide between the two teams. The Heroic Cat Pack includes Slashcat, Sandstinger and Taran-Chewa; the Evil Rat Pack includes Slaughterjaws, The Darkclaw and Rip Rat. Their later color records retain the character name while receiving separate catalog numbers.
Some toys carry a circular team emblem: a raised-thumb mark for the Cat Pack or a fanged face for the Rat Pack. Since the emblem does not appear on every item, compare the vehicle, toy number and packaging together.
What to compare when collecting
- Name and catalog number: use both when separating records with the same character name.
- Color and graphics: compare the paint and tampo placement; second-color versions may retain the same sculpt.
- Moving features: check mouths, limbs, wings and other action parts for completeness and wear.
- Packaging: record the printed year, line name, team graphics and assortment wording separately from loose-toy details.
- Condition: note missing pieces, paint wear and package damage as separate observations.

Value Research
Attack Pack is a themed line spanning multiple model names, sublines and toy sizes. A checklist number identifies a cataloged entry; it does not by itself establish the vehicle casting. Match the named toy, team or subline, year and package before comparing completed sales.
For larger toys, check moving parts and missing accessories. For smaller vehicles, inspect paint, graphics, wheels and base. Record package condition separately. No unsupported price range is assigned here.
Collector FAQs
Is Attack Pack one Hot Wheels casting?
No. It is a themed toy line that includes many differently named vehicles and several sublines. Use each model’s own guide for casting-specific details.
Do the catalog numbers identify castings?
The numbers in this checklist identify the recorded Attack Pack entries. To distinguish the actual model and version, compare the vehicle name, sculpt, finish and package markings as well.
Is every Attack Pack model the same size?
No. The named sublines include larger toys as well as smaller vehicle models. Check the individual guide for each toy’s size and construction.
