Oh no no no. I've got the same black one....


I have tried to bid low on the metallic red Enzo GT Concept before.



In my opinion, the black is the one to go for. It looks very believable as a test mule. And besides, it is the color of the real life car...

But... the metalic red ones are the "collectibles"! They come in a white base, not that it looks pretty, but it's clearly more special than the regulars.

I did at one point have a chance at the pearl white F50, but I turned down the offer in favour of putting that money on something else.
 
I'm not gonna want that one at all. I'd be shocked if I bought that online.

Wow, really? Dodge Van, thought you would have been all over that one.

Edit: Has your amiami order been shipped out yet? Mine was last night. 👍
 
The rear wheels look really tacky, but nothing a little putty can't fix. As for the wheels you should get some paint pens to paint them white or black
 
Still haven't seen any new cars. These were in the bins when I went to find the mini and Vette.
The first Walmart I usually have luck with had all A case cars

The other had crap.
 
HWC.com had the Darth Vader Hot Wheel today. I didn't want it, but I thought I could flip it. Their Thursday special sale car was the El Camino I've been stalking, so perfect, I'll get both! I had both in cart, but by the time I made it to the payment page, Vader was sold out. :lol: Oh well, I wasn't sore like I was with the Bond car I missed out on on Tuesday. On the way home, I did find this baby:

Greenlight Green Machine Challenger R/T

Imma flip this instead.

Wasn't that green Corvette a K-Day exclusive?
NO YABI! I love xB, but one xB I don't touch is the Hot Wheels xB....... though it does look better in yellow. I may have to look at that one, but don't hold your breath. :lol: Sort of jealous on the Secret TH Jeep though, and nice job on two Snoopy & two Kool Kombis. :)👍

J Money, did you really miss the fine print? Did you believe for one second that I'll be able to go on with my life without that MOONEYES TREASURE hunt DODGE van?

:lol:

I've had few days head start on you this time........ It still hasn't left Japan yet. I'll likely lose the race again(yes, it is a race to me lol). :(
 
No, I ment bins for the Walmarts I went to before I got the mini and Vette at k mart.
Ah, OK. I misunderstood.
I swear, if I buy an RLC membership to get the BRE 240Z and it sells out in 5 seconds I'm not going to be happy.
That is a strong possibility. I had to buy that Bluebird from TTP. Thankfully, it was one of the rare cases where seller was asking below $50. Whew.
Nothing to see here. I just got tree'd.
I was going to say, thank god it was K-Mart exclusive, because I don't want it, and I usually never even go near a K-Mart. :lol:
 
How many Star Wars cars are there in this new set? I thought only five, (Yoda, R2-D2, Vader, Chewbacca, and Skywalker), but I just found a Clone Trooper and a Tusken Raider.

I wasn't aware of those either but found the Storm Trooper. Still need the Tusken Raider.
 
I guess the only one I'm missing is R2-D2 then. I have the known ones.
 
I actually like that one. R2D2 looked OK, but I still wasn't feeling it. I like Star Wars, I like Hot Wheels, but they don't seem to mix very well, at least to me.

P.S. That Darth Vader I missed out on HWC.com this morning? I think it was $40 + shipping. :eek:
 
I thought the combo of Star Wars and Hot Wheels are pretty neat. The Skylander one is really cool in my opinion.

P.S. You're right, $39.99. To rich for my blood. The only thing it seemed to have over the one in my lap is it came with a nifty box.
 
I did see the case, and it was pretty neat. Still, I'd have flipped that one sooner or later. Collectible value was pretty high with that one, and I can appreciate you guys digging the Star Wars meet Hot Wheels thing, but I personally wasn't feeling it. *shrug*

...and a metal base, and more detail, and premium wheels/tires. ;)
 
I was wondering. I knew it was a premium, but didn't I didn't know if they just put it on real riders.
