While shipping tons of cars at the post office to Ben in Down Under, I did pick up one car in the mail today:

Hot Wheels Holiday Hiway Hauler





Christmas presents in the back's really nice touch. This is my first Hiway Hauler, and I've been wanting the 'Lucky Charms' one, but I got this for same price, so I'm happy. :)

That's a beauty.. I love them Haulers.. :bowdown:

I like your Skittles Deco Delivery, too. đź‘Ť I've opened the Milkyway Bread Box, but have yet to open that one...... :D

While searching prices on the Holiday Hiway Haulers, I ended up running into & purchasing another Holiday Hot Wheels(It's March!). :ouch: It's pretty cool though, look for it on here maybe next week!

Edit: Never mind, I don't think I could do any better than this pic I found:

I want them all. The Cool Classics series is my redemption for missing out on so many Classics series cars. I've about half the Cool Classics cars currently. But the series needs more JDM.
 
Came close to picking up the SS Express from the series...... but I already have the coolest one, so I passed. :P

I thought there was another Cool Classics I was interested in. It was one of the latest, but I can't remember which one right now.....
 
So I haven't been in this thread in a while, but I have a question. I've been thinking about customizing Hot Wheels/Matchbox (please note if I need any assistance I will use the customizing thread). However I want to know if their are any classic cars that are easy to find (ie 70s Firebirds, 67 Camaros, 71 Chargers, etc). If anyone can help that would be great.

There sure are. Just head to a big store near you that sells Hot Wheels and buy some cars. Before even taking the car out of the package though, post the cars you get in this thread to see if you have any rare or valuable cars so we can tell you, which is what I do. Big stores being those like Walmart. ;)
 
I have few muscle cars I'd sell dirt cheap, if you are looking for mainlines. Of course, shipping is what bumps the price up, unfortunately. If you have eBay account & wouldn't mind paying the actual shipping, let me know.

Locally, I think some of the members on here find them at swap meets. Like Johnny said, big box stores generally have few classics on had. Online, I generally look on eBay or toypeddler.
 
@Johnny1996 Thanks for the advice. Sadly I don't have a camera so I won't be able to take photos. And my nearest Wal-Mart is about 30 Minutes away. But since Spring is here I was thinking about going to any of the local flea markets/swap meets.

@a6m5 I appreciate that you would sell some dirt cheap. However as I said before I will just wait and go to the local flea market seeing as I have better luck there.

No problemo. I've never been to one, but I know some members in here do. Good luck! đź‘Ť
 
Ok, how much for each? :0
I dunno, KMart is usually more expensive than the other big box stores. Probably around $1.10-1.20 each plus tax. Send me $1.50 for each car you want and I can get them after work tomorrow.
 
@a6m5. Alright just placed my very first pre-orders at AmiAmi. Ordered this & this. đź‘Ť
That white Beret's the same one I preordered. I thought I'd match your orange one with this white one, but now you gonna have both! :drool:

260Z's tight....... Would make a perfect birthday present to your good friend a6m5, just saying......

:P

Edit: I 🤬 knew it! The green three-wheeled Daihatsu truck took over the red one in the sales ranking!(found to the right side of the screen). Of course, they both got taken over by some Hello Kitty car, but outside Ben, I don't know of anyone who have one. :odd:

:lol:

Dude, do you really think I'd pass up an opportunity to grab a racing version, especially at that price? Anyway Daboxtoys still have both version's of Bellett available. ;) Unlike the Silver/Black 280z I got from them a couple of weeks back which is sold out already. :crazy:

It's released like a month after your birthday though. :P :lol:
 
Hi guys

Just a quick question: I've been told that the Just Born Candy range of Hot Wheels Pop Culture is going to be a grocery store exclusive, ie Kroegers and so forth. Anybody have any input on this? I import alot of cars from the states, and apparently, hobby stores and online stores are not supposed to get them, but strangely KMJ diecast have them...
