              Still can't figure out why taking one of these out of the package and blasting a hole in the top for a hook or keychain makes it worth 10 times as much, but if people are buyin' them I got a lot of little metal cars sitting around...and a drill.

                I know right. The one that pissed me off the most were the nhaa key chains. They were impossible to find

                  Good news! Surf Doc recolor has 3 per box of 36. These ultimately should prove easier to find than the dark red. Here's the new '12 card:



                  When quickly scanning pegs, I found that looking for new lemon yellow bottom right hand corner was most efficient. Inaccurate cardback didn't make it to '12:



                  Can hardly wait to find more these for other procar enthusiasts.

                      After many months of bad luck in this department I went to Wally world today and they had just put out a fresh case of matchbox, I found 3 of the yellow surf doc ones in that batch.
                      Now I probably wont find another till June.

                        i found 7 of the Surf Docs at TRU on friday, but 3 of them have broken packaging. The plastic part is cracked on one and the other two are missing one end of the package allowing the car to slide out.

                          I have come across a handful of the Surf Doc ambulance lately, even left one hanging because I didn't want to wait in a Christmas Eve day line since I had no other purchases. I have yet to see the maroon one with the gothic lettering anywhere.

                            I have find A LOT of the Surf Doc ambulance. Also a couple had the plastic broken on one end. I have been finding about 4 or 5 at Target stores and only 1 or 2 at Walmart. I only find 2 of the red ambulance.
                            If anybody wants or needs the Surf Doc let me know.

                              I also have quite a few surf docs, as well as the red one with gothic lettering. Feel free to hit me up

                                I walked into TRU today and was greeted with this. 10 Surf Docs in a row:
