So, after chandler and I discussed the fact that Mattel probably hosed up the b- cases, I decided I needed to hit the Walmart of treasure one more time. I was thusly rewarded.[URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/mndsm/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/IMG_20141110_135028_zpsxsabihzo.jpg.html][/URL] pulled another th cj, and an interesting error, a snoopy with no nesting package. He's just loose in the blister. I forgot to show you guys the wagon i got the other day[URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/mndsm/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/IMG_20141110_135244_zpsznaymurc.jpg.html][/URL] nice little screwed up tampo for me! Also- this is what I do to dump bims-[URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/mndsm/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/IMG_20141110_131813_zpsdw0lxusl.jpg.html][/URL] this is actually a poor effort on my part as I was getting the evil eye from the wife and the kid was demolishing something. And then he peed himself and we had to.go.

I can probably make that happen, or check your local Walmart.

I found a Wal-Marx that had a E36 M3 ton of 007 Espirts. And 3 Snoopys. only saw the F&F car once about a month ago. If I'd have known...

Gladly accepted sir. I'm more stoked about this than the $uper pull. This trucks real life counterpart ranks quite high in movie car life for me. Delorean, 60s batmobile, general Lee, this truck, all the same ilk.

I really need to find a source for Hot Wheels around here that isn't being poached by employees or other enthusiasts.

The Walmart closest to my work has an employee who's always watching me when I dig in the loose HW bin or look through the racks.

Perhaps I can put his mind at ease by showing him that I'm not a real diehard collector, and want just a couple cars...but he seems rather creepy.

Walmart almost always has someone in toys lookingnfor shoplifting. Ignore.

Or he just really likes the way you smell, and is working up the courage to ask you out to dinner.

OK, so I am cheating here, and I obviously didn't just acquire these, but I did before moving. I love finding old kitsch like this:

So I lucked out and this arrived today, I DID NOT pay eBay prices for this piece. Hot Wheels had +/- 400 of them that they let go at retail prices, they lasted less than two minutes. This is from the 2014 San Diego Comic Convention which is nearly impossible to get into and harder to get what you want while there.
