Proton Saga (White) — Signed by Tun Mahathir Mohamad — Hot Wheels

Condition & grading: Near Mint, ungraded. Item remains in its original sealed blister with card and bubble intact. Card shows no visible creases or major corner wear from handling; the die‑cast Proton Saga inside the blister appears mint. Minor surface reflections in photos are from the clear plastic blister only; no cracks or dents observed on the shell.

Signature & provenance: The front card art is signed in gold marker; the signature overlays the illustrated artwork but does not touch the die‑cast vehicle. The gold ink contrasts well against the blue background and is clearly legible in hand. Included with the sale are four 4R photographic prints taken at the signing and a copy of a letter from Tun Mahathir’s office documenting the meeting to support provenance for collectors.

Notable features: Malaysia‑themed Hot Wheels card art (specialty artwork) with distinctive local motifs and the Proton branding on the car make this a standout display piece. The casting is the white Proton Saga sculpt — a recognizable, regionally significant model for collectors of manufacturer‑specific releases and Hot Wheels specialty runs. This listing is for the sealed carded piece; there is no foil or prestige variant on this item.

Collectible value & notes: This is a crossover collectible combining a Hot Wheels specialty release, a canonical Malaysian automotive icon (Proton Saga), and a prominent signature from Tun Mahathir Mohamad. It will appeal to Hot Wheels collectors, Proton/Malaysian auto enthusiasts, and collectors of political or presidential memorabilia. Because the item is ungraded, market value will depend on buyer interest in the signature and supplied provenance; keeping the package sealed preserves the artwork and signature. No significant defects that would affect display quality were observed.
