Hot Wheels and Icon in sandbox battle

Icon claims that a Hot Wheels toy being distributed worldwide is based on its Icon FJ40—which itself is based on the Toyota FJ40—and that Hot Wheels' use of Icon's design, promotional materials and the name “FJ40” violates trademarks held by Icon.

Check out the walk-around and some on-track fun, then come back for the VBox lap on Friday.
