  • toy reference: HW '59 Cadillac Funny Car

    Since I had to search to find my old postings, starting a specific new thread should prove easier.

    These are all 14 versions (Hot Wheels and Code 3) released of this casting to date:







    Advance head's up (and real reason for separate post)~

    Next release of this casting is slated for August as part of Hot Wheels' new Nostalgia collector line. 16 count cases, with 2 '59 Cadillac Funny Car per case in mix A. No picture released yet. These will be either $4 or $5 apiece. From Mattel:

    This assortment captures the iconic art of legendary properties like Coca-Cola, General Mills, Masters of the Universe and DC Comics. Whether it’s the classic Coca-Cola Santa Claus, advertising great Count Chocula, or childhood heroes like He-Man or The Flash, these 1:64 scale vehicles will transport you to a time when you didn't have a care in the world! Cars feature die-cast bodies and chassis and come with Real Riders.

        Here is the brand-spankin'-new Masters of the Universe release. Suggested retail is $4.25, inline with Mattel's 8% price increases. (Although @ TRU in Times Square it coast $5.99 - still cheaper than eBay.) Top tampo deters so a side shot instead:

          May seem like a lot of $$$ but this is a solid:

          Mexico Convention

          VVHTF! Took me a year to acquire under $100. While infrequently turning up, they're usually $130-150. 1 of 50 made, numbered, and has the most incredible paint job. Showpiece in any diecast collection. Seriously.

              Glad to hear!

              $4.47 is what I've been seeing @ Walmart. $4.24 @ Kmart. Either $4.99 or $5.99 @ TRU. Have multiple spares now if members can't find them locally.

                      7 huh? Novice.

                      What is that, like 4 or 5 stores? I've already traded off more than that and have this many remaining.



                      Welcome to your low grade addiction. Only gets worse~

                              I just haven't had a chance to go through them and see what I have and don't, plus I'm kinda broke right now.
