Treasure Hunts 2011 - Unleashed...

Info from Hot Wheels Wiki..

Treasure Hunt (sometimes T-Hunt) is a line of Hot Wheels cars which were introduced by Mattel in 1995. It consists of 12 cars every year; one released per month. The original production run started at 10,000 pieces worldwide, and has since grown due to the demand and increasing popularity of Hot Wheels collecting.
In 2007, Mattel introduced a two-tiered Treasure Hunt system. A regular Treasure Hunt would feature normal enamel paint and normal wheels compared to other Hot Wheels cars. The production of these is rumored to be greater than Treasure Hunts of the past. The Super Treasure Hunts are much rarer and are like Treasure Hunts of the past, featuring Real Riders wheels and Spectraflame paint. All 12 Treasure Hunt cars are planned to be released in both regular and super versions.

Mattel decided for 2011, to release 15 Treasure Hunt instead..
As per title, behold the Treasure Hunts for 2011.. All 15 of them being loose and displayed...
I would like to thanks to other fellow collectors who help to completes these...
Enjoy the pics...
