I've never been able to find those in store in the UK, specifically the Carbonator. I suspect scalpers always get them.
 
Don't ask me how, but either some hunter hid them in the secret cardboard box at the bottom of the shelves, or these are in reality not popular anymore:

Grabbed only the Porsche so now I can finally modify this bathtub.

That was just excess plastic. I saw it in just one wheel.

Ah never mind those wheels don't look so good then. :lol: jk

I purchased the lot below for the Camaro (obviously). Got it and was surprised to find the Cabriolet was a Canadian / International release. And the Corgi Juniors Whizzwheels Batmobile is quite rare as well. Couldn't tell from the seller's picture, but it has a tow hook so it originally came in a pack with the bat boat. It's rough, but should sell to recoup my cost of $14 for everything.

The tiny choroq type Tonka pullbacks are interesting and the shadow jet is a color racer in great shape!

I hit a few stores so I will have to remember which one. But it was in Phoenix and I'm not going back up there until Friday night.

If you do have a chance to take a peek, please do so 👍

Im hoping this one is in better condition than the one I have. If not, back to ebay!

Every time I've seen it available it's in piss-poor condition. Or mint but expensive as all the heck.
 
That CSL would make a good Rally car, but I'm sure there are about 25 others who would've had this planned already.
 
So I guess Gran Turismo isn't the only game getting some Hot Wheels replicas.
