R1600Turbo
Stopped at a few stores this morning. Nothing at Target, found a couple cars at the first Wal-Mart, but hit the jackpot at the last Wal-Mart with new N-Case cars and the new Wal-Mart exclusive 10 car set with the redline tires. However, I showed great restraint and didn't buy a single car! Was so hard to walk away from it all.
I did search for TH's and Supers, but not a single one. Judging by the condition of the area, it looked like I had been the first one there, so I think an employee snagged them. 👎
Anyway, got something here you might want to keep an eye out for:
I WANT THAT MCLAREN GTR!!!!!
👍
And I have to say Jason, what you did by restraing yourself from buying any new HWs is... How should I say this...pure cold turkey ownage.
Soon, I have to do it myself for getting my STi, Evo and/or a cheap project car and for school! I hope I can find the other cars soon like the Viper, 599XX and the other eluding cars.
Congrats on the 21K posts also.

Think I'll keep purchasing them in the stores if I get the project car. (Need to save up for an engine and transmission....and other mechanicals)
Sorry for getting off topic, but what type of car are you planning to get for the project? I'm just wondering, since I'm looking at a either a S13 coupe/hatchback, AE86 or a Mk3 Supra for daily/track/drift car.

Same thing.
By the way, search eBay for that car. You can buy one right now for the super low price of $200.
O__o A New HW car for $200!!!!! WTF?!?!
Now this is blowing my mind now, why would someone buy a new car for that amount of money is beyond me.
Went to Walmart to get some household products tonight, so I paid the HW section a visit to browse at what they got in stock. And then right there standing in my face is.......
The faster than ever 2012 Mazda Fuari!!!! And on top of that, my first Furai in my collection! And if anyone knows, I found a 2012 New Model of a Porsche Boxster Roadster 987/981?
So I placed it in the cart and started skimming the pegs and found another one and a few more cars that I was looking for, and they don't have the 80's AE86 neither
, but they had alot of the 70's GTX's, one 00's ZR1 Vette, and a 90's Mustang LX foxbody. For the Matchbox cars, barely anything, but I have found the 997 GT3 Porsche (no chrome wheels, only orange).
Man, did anyone here ask the stockers in Heckmart sometimes? Because all of the other stores tell me when they get shipments in or tell me to come back in a week or two, but I asked a guy there in the toy department and he didn't even tell me when they get new shipments or even check back in a week or tomorrow. I barely ask the workers in that store, some of them give me strange looks sometime like they never seen a collector before.
But at least I met another collector at the lines tonight, he was pretty cool and collects many other scales also. And telling where i can find some of the rarer cars at as well. But he's getting back collecting HWs also. I have to say, HW is doing an amazing job in the past few years, even bringing back guys/men ranging from the teens all the way to seniors into buying them, even racecar drivers, tuners and journalists in auto mags talk about HWs and what they are doing with the auto/tuning/racing industry.
Here are the other cars that I picked up:
Lancer Evo X (in purple)
Honda Civic Si FG2 x2
Lancer Evo VII GSR
Pontaic Firebird Trans Am '73 x2
Buick GSX
302 Laguna Seca (in blue, but not my black version
.)
Dodge Charger 426 SuperBee '71
Renault Megane GT
Some good cars for my birthday, late Bday purschases (I'm 23 now, Bday was July 31st.)
Edit: Great cars you have there Ben. Love the Crown Police Car and the Cedric from Tomica the most. 👍
They released the old one before it even landed on mars! Where these action packs easy to find when they came out? Some say they are super rare. P.S. Might want to reread my last post because i edited right after you commented.
Personally i kinda like the Soujouner Mars Rover from the action pack better, but this one is awesome to! I can't wait to get this one!
