the guy trying to buy mattel is still furious.
“It is my opinion that Mattel cannot be salvaged at this point and most certainly not under the current, hostile board and management,” Larian said. “As such, after considering the disastrous financial details of Mattel, and the direction its board and management are pursuing, I think, at this time, it is in the best interest of MGAE not to continue forward with a Mattel offer.”

MAT and Nintendo NTDOY are entering a partnership, where they are globally launching a new line of Hot Wheels Mario Kart die-cast vehicles and track sets. Starting in summer 2019, these cars and track sets will be available at retailers in select markets.
These cars are 1:64 scale replicas of the iconic Mario Kart characters. Additionally, Hot Wheels is developing tracks for these cars to race around. The three game-inspired sets, which are being launched, include Piranha Plant slide track set, Thwomp Ruins track set and Hot Wheels Mario Kart track set. On the first release, there will be cars for Mario, Yoshi, Luigi and Bowser, with additional characters coming later such as Princess Peach, Koopa Troop and Toad.
Mattel has been evidently pressing ahead with its Hot Wheels category of late. The company recently launched Hot Wheels id, which features Smart Track, Race Portal and Hot Wheels id vehicles. Also, the new Hot Wheels id provides users a mixture of digital and physical play. Users can now track speed, count laps and have a virtual garage.
