How proof images work
Loose Hot Wheels separates owned catalog art from proof photos so collectors can tell the difference between a visual guide and a verified reference image.
Catalog visuals
Owned catalog visuals can appear on casting and variation pages to help with quick matching. They are not automatically treated as proof photos.
Proof photos
Proof photos should show real collector evidence such as front, side, base, wheel, and packaging views when available. Those records need review before they are treated as confirmed proof.
Rights and attribution
Uploads should come from the rights holder or from someone with permission to submit them. The site may watermark approved media and keep attribution records.
Removal requests
Rights holders can use the contact route to ask for review, correction, or removal of submitted images.
