Mattel Hot Birds
Hot Birds are a set of 6 futuristic die-cast toy airplanes produced by American toy maker Mattel in 1971. All 6 of the models were manufactured in the US. 4 of the models were also produced in Hong Kong. Hot Birds were painted with the same Spectraflame paint as Mattel's Hot Wheels cars were painted, however, the planes came in only five colors, Red, Blue, Green, Gold/Yellow, and Magenta. Not all models came in all colors. These colors also came varying shades believed due to the way the paint was mixed at the factory.

- 6075 – Sky Scraper (USA and Hong Kong)
- 6076 – Cloud Hopper (USA and Hong Kong)
- 6077 – Star Grazer (USA and Hong Kong)
