^^ saw that mid 2013 at the toys r us near me

now they also have the Kitt with all the weapons attached to it

 

The SPM kitt doesn't have "weapons" attached to it.those are more like winglets and air deflectors


Dave

 

Toys r us/amazon online had em for $40 over holidays.


I have like 5 of those already,But When ever they clearance them out at $30 or less, Ill get whats left at my local toys r us

Dave

 

your'e correct, i was mistaken but saw them again yesterday, no weapons just deflectors as you said

 

At Wal-Mart today:

 

Keep an eye open in Wal Mart for this "AW" 1/64. I've only found them in WalMart, can't find them stocked in ToysRUs, Kmart, or Target. $2.99, and very detailed. The '84 comes in red and blue, but so far I have found only blue. The '92 comes in black and teal, and I've only found teal.

Edit: I think this may be the same as the Johnnie Lightning, but I'm not positive

 

ive got both. i have an extra teal 92 if someone is looking.

 

Have you found red or black yet?

 

i have the black 92. the maroon 92 is limited edition. i also have an 84 in blue

 

These just started to hit the walmarts here in pa a couple of weeks ago.So far Ive only seen the teal 92 but one Walmart got the assortment with the 84.Unfortunetly it was already gone so I'm still on the hunt

 

2016 release. I got a few.

 

annnnnnnnd we're back to using the "blown Z28" mold.

 

So, alread had a blue, picked up a red one for $2 and a black for $1 at a swap meet this past weekend (along with some much needed carb parts lol). Took 'em out of the package and displayed on the bookshelf Maybe at the Spring meet I'll find a yellow for a buck or two lol.

 

Well well. Hot wheels released another. And it's orange....

 

Hmmm. I mean, I like it, but since that wasn't ever a factory color I'm not as interested to get it as the others.

 

^^^^ what was said above ^^^^

 

Wow you guys didnt know that they offered a burnt orange Iroc in 1988?

 

Didn't know that, was it a rare color? (as I've never seen one)

 

I forgot about burnt orange. Pretty rare factory color.

 

Keep an eye out guys !! Target has this line of Hot Wheels

 

Are these out yet?

Dave

 

Coming soon for us Bird guys !!!

Wal Mart exclusive

 

CORRECT. Got a few including an error

 

That's awesome. Gonna scope it out tonight!

 

A new AutoWorld Offering To Store YOUR Hotwheels in & includes an 87 Blue IROC.

 

You mean I can't just throw them all in a box by the handful, like I did when I was a kid?

 

Only at Wal-Mart

 

I've found 20 of the new KITTs & treasure hunts as well as super treasure hunts this week, but never have seen this. KILLER. Now I have to hunt even harder. Thank you for posting the heads up. Are these the $1 cars or more?

 

LMAO same here have found and traded for 50 of the new hot wheels KITTS and same here found about 10 $upers @ Target/Wal-mart to trade for more KITTS lol These will pop up next month in HUGE dump bins at Wal Mart. Come like 300 cars. 3-4 cases

And yes the 50th Ann Camaro series will be .94 cents at Wal-Mart.



Only thing is they could have atleast painted it white/red stripe 25th Ann colors to coincide with the anniversary theme

Dave

 

Thank you for the info.

 

Hey! Leave a few for the kids Electric Bill. You don't gotta collect em all. What with your fortunes and all, does it really matter if they're $1 or more?

Nice to see they're getting the mileage out of the Iroc mold. Anything that's not a fantasy car is unusual anymore with all the crap in the HW line up.

 

This is very cool.

 

I feel for your sentiment, but i disagree. Buy every one of these suckers you can find. Show Hotwheels that if they make it, people will buy it. Vote with your money kind-of-thing.

 

I agree and disagree... I buy plenty of them, but I do try to buy only the quantity that I'm going to personally collect or trade to my circle of friends. If the first guy that comes along clears the shelf of every single copy of a car, the next guy that comes looking will have to turn to alternatives like Ebay. Maybe it'll start a vicious circle of hording collectors that ****** up every deal that comes along, only to artificially jack up the market.

I really need to find a way to safely ship these things affordably. I'd love to liquidate some of my duplicates, but even a small box is more expensive to ship than they're worth.

 

Ya, I have shipped 2-3 cars in a small box and its been $2.60 First class mail. I print label through paypal to get discount price.

Alway use first class cause most of times its same ETA of delivery 1/2 price of priority mail

I get little boxes for free to pack em at Walmart, when they're stocking merchandise at night hehe

point is to cut down on cost

Dave

 

The CAMARO 50th anniversary sets are out. I bought a few.

 

I did my part...lol. bought 115 so far

 

I guese im not a TRUE third gen guy ? lol , Bought 10 of the IROC's and one had a wheel error


Dave

 

You'll buy more possibly but I have a feeling the '67 & the IROC will be the 2 that will be harder to get.
I also bought a few complete verticals sets but confused why they used 2, 2013 castings in the set, no 2017 cast & such strange colors on all of them... they are not the greatest representation of the Camaro line. They have a 68 casting as well as a 70 or 71 casting too.

It would be super cool if they did all the Pace Cars as the Anniversary set.

 

Check your Wal-Marts soon !!

 

I used to buy die cast and scale models of cars I own(ed). Or wanted. Now I've sold most, and just focus on buying the 1:1 scale versions. Had too many small scale on the shelves or in boxes. Bigger scale is more fun, but still sit around in their "boxes", usually.

 

 

Strange looking IROC. That looks like a custom to me made out of the old casting. Looks like it's missing the hood louvers.
Is this real?

 

There is also a pea green IROC out on Ebay, though I have not been able to find it anywhere. Supposedly from multi-packs

 

I build a different Christmas themed Dealership pretty much each year. This year it was a tribute to the old Frazier Williams in Milford Ohio where the 87 was delivered new.

I wish they'd stop dumping variations in multi-packs. They take up a lot of space and generally contain a lot of garbage I don't want to pay for, or look at for that matter. Taking up too much space is the #1 problem with my Thirdgen collection. I don't have room to display them the way I'd want to, and I'm almost to the point where I don't have room to store much more.

Found a better picture of the 'totally rad 80's Iroc' we'll see if it hotlinks... Apparently it's a Walmart exclusive Camaro series coming in 2018? I'd rather buy a series of Camaros individually than buy yet another multi-pack...



Not Hot Wheels, but I picked up a Sear's RC 1982 Trans Am at a local toy show last month. It's a relic from the dark ages of RC toys. You turn it on, either high speed or low speed, and the tires start spinning. The transmitter controls the steering, and has a reverse button. "Radio controlled" is used loosely. Needless to say there's a reason it was still virtually un-enjoyed in the original box... Or maybe it didn't get used much because it requires a drawer full of batteries?



It fits in really well.
