FINALLY!!!! Found the eluding BMW E92 M3 GTR GT2 and the black and red 302 Laguna Mustang tonight!

That SRT Viper, black M3 GT2 and a few more (including that Celica) until my break on these guys. But since I found some of the most wanted ones, I'm gonna just take a chill until I run into the remaining cars.

Doh.

I'm going to do a run to the Dufferin Walmart and Toys r Us either this Friday or next Monday now that I'm back in school. I imagine they already have a load of summer 2012 and possibly fall 2012 cars I have yet to see at the stores at home.

Yep out of all of the Miatas that Hot Wheels ever produced, this one stands out with a bang though,

Yep they did good with this one!:tup:

and no wonder people say that a Miata is a girl's car .

Yea funny i mentioned Barbie car

But regardless, I love this one, gotta find it again soon. Have you seen the same yellow and pink Miata, but with lime green wheels? I think R1600 has one, if I remember, he did post a pic of it before.

Yea of all the cars i have seen i in all my 8 years of collecting, that has got to be the most awkward color combination i have ever seen on a Hot Wheels car! But awesome!:tup:

Well thanks for the correction on the Miata. I'm shocked that it still exists . I thought it was gone like the Diablo, MR2 SW20 and a few others. Yep, I hope they do bring it back.

Yea 2003 was the last time they ever made one, i have two other Miata's that i think my brother owns. I do hope they bring it back to. If they do i imagine it will be in the Hot ones series or the boulavard series.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I have quite a few of the Miata's at the moment. The other yellow one is this one:

Edit: Oh, not sure if any of you know but I guess Toys R Us has a buy one, get one free promotion going on right now with Hotwheels. I stopped by my local store on Saturday and was amazed to find that their previously over flowing stock of hotwheels were almost completely gone due to the sale.

Wow that thing is awesome!👍 I went in my local toy store again and i seen a burgandy Miata there with 7 spoke wheels i think. (not too familar with the wheel names) I may get it if it's still there.

Wow i hate that i won't be anywhere near a Toys R Us anytime soon. Must you have all the fun?

The Lime wheels are super sexy, its a shame they were only on two castings tho. Wonder how much both are worth together

 

[CodeRedR51]

South Texas Diecast says around $10 carded for the yellow wheels, $3 carded for the BW wheels. This car was also re-released in 1995 & 1996 with 5SP and 7SP wheels.

Here's the guide:

You don't find good wheels like that anymore. The Miata had alot of "unusual" wheel types i only recall the Miata itself having. Check it out on HWC.

I have a little field guide on hot wheels with alot of cars and pictures and even the value of each of them and the Miata i own it says mine is worth $5.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I almost bought that first red one with no tampos off eBay the other day, but right now I just don't have the cash to put out for any.

^^^Whose autograph?

Hey, I gotta question. For the first time in my life, I got caught up watching the NASCAR race while channel surfing over the weekend. I think Sunday, I see some NASCAR hot wheel cars(not actually Hot Wheels brand), so I look for this one cool looking Camry from the race.

It's all Chevy.

Do they not make other manufacturer NASCAR race cars? I'm not gonna lie, I was disappointed.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Nope, the red one.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

Red Laguna?

Nope the Black Clearcoat and Red 302 stripes Laguna, the first one of the whole car lineup color, the one I was going crazy over earlier dude.

But you're on to something though, HW didn't do a red and black 302 stripe Laguna yet, wonder when they are gonna do it though.

Yep they did good with this one!:tup:

Ahhh, I was thinking along the same lines myself about the Miata! I hope they do bring it out to the Boulevard series * crosses fingers and toes*.

And at the Barbie car.

Yep, that's the famous green wheels Miata right there.

And I'm far away from any Toys 'R Us though . The closest one is the one at the Beltz Mall on Vegas Blvd. And even when I lived in Henderson, the one in Green Valley was a few blocks from Santa Fe Casino and the Galleria Mall. So I'll have to pass on this one.

O_o Please spare us with the HUGE pic post PLEASE!!!!!!

 

[Spacegoat]

^^^Whose autograph?

I don't know, but that better be David Hasselhoff's autograph. Otherwise, I'm going be very disappointed

NEVER!!!

It's Brendon Vetuskey's, the HW Designer that did KITT, amongst several other pieces in the recent lineups. The autograph itself has it's story, I didn't get it in the usual, wait in the line way.

Yup. That concludes it. Dufferin Walmart has like everything.

At the Toys R Us beside it, I grabbed 8 cars. At Walmart though, 29 cars...would have been 30 if I went back and grabbed a 2nd SRT10 Viper.

Haven't taken pictures yet, not like you guys don't know what they look like, but they basically have all the new stuff 'Sauga Walmart's probably going to get half of by October/November. Worth the extra transit token if you ask me. But anyway, here's what I picked up last night on my way home from school.

Didn't see a single 599XX yet, and I should really get on compiling a list of past cars I want to get and complete that so it no longer bugs me anymore.



edit: Looked at my past 2 purchases, I remember grabbing some older Matchbox cars... I have a '08 VW Caddy that's the first in its lineup; the teal caddy. I shouldn't have opened it because it's bound to have some "first edition" value a decade from now. I also opened a 2002 VW Beetle 4x4 without checking how old it is even though I knew it was old. After that I looked up the Audi TT I got and that was from 2000 so I didn't open that.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I can get you a 599xx if you really need one...

Also, FINALLY getting a lace wheel Ford Falcon Racecar!

One doesn't have a collection without one.


Do you also have any of the following 2012s?
-M3 GT2 in black
-Mars Rover Curiousity
-Corvette Z06 in black
-2012 VW Beetle (red)
-Porsche Boxster Spyder
-Mystery Machine
-any Angry Birds car
-Bentley Continental


Also, did you want a Boulevard Drag Merc?

 

[CodeRedR51]

I can get you one, but I don't have one in my collection. Think that's one I skipped.

 

[AOS-]

Post updated without you knowing.

 

[CodeRedR51]

You really don't have the black Z06? Those things are everywhere! I've only seen multiples of the following in my travels:

- Black Z06
- Bentley
- Boxster
- Black M3 GT2

 

[AOS-]

We only have an abundance of the White Fire Dept. Corvettes sadly. But if you can get me what you've listed, that would be splendid! You sure you don't want a boulevard Drag Merc? Dufferin Walmart had about 4 when I went last night.

Here's that Audi TT from 2000 I didn't unbox.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Nah, don't need the Merc.

 

[Cano]

Also, FINALLY getting a lace wheel Ford Falcon Racecar!

ASKHSADFGSJD I want one. Is this one of those very rare hard to find variations?
