Is that supposed to be a 2012? Because I'm pretty sure I will spend an entire day combing MN and western wisconsin for those.

It's already out, and I'm already on the hunt. If you notice, the b pillar is decked out with Japanese Nostalgic Car logo...

It was supposed to hit stores at the end of February as a 2012 New Edition. I've been looking everywhere!

(Conversely, we've had the orange 2002 for over a month, and the blue Falcon touring car).

Still on the hunt for the RX7 but found the 2002 and the Falcon mid February.

I haven't seen anyone post any of these, but I bought a couple of the Vintage Racing series recently (found at a local Publix grocery). My latest was one of these:

I've had that for 2 weeks now. Bought the first one I found. I have come across several since then.

Also have that Falcon appleseed posted.

Saw the blue one at Toys R Us the same time I bought the 2002, but didn't grab it. Maybe I'll sneak back during lunch...

I have the blue one somewhere too. I need to get to a toy store or several soon so I can try and get my hands on that rx7.

In reply to darkbuddha:

The entire thread is because of those. Search for the "Hot Wheels wanted" thread, too, to see my list of remaining ones I need. That series is just the E36 M3 man. BRE 510, T/A Boss 302 and Javelin, etc, etc.

Javelin, do you happen to have a Vintage Racing Penske Javelin to spare?

Also, Vintage Racing was replaced for this year with a Racing series. Each case will be a different style of racing. The first case was NHRA, which had Snake & Mongoose Funny Cars with the reamaining cars in fictional liveries.

I saw the next case in a local Walmart today. All road racing muscle cars. There's a '69 Bud Moore Mustang, a fictional earlier fastback Mustang, a '94+ pre-wing fictional Trans-Am Mustang, a fictional Javelin, and a George Robinson Hot Wheels-liveried Olds Aurora.

There's also an AE86 in this year's '80's portion of the Decades series. Found a couple while out of town last week.

Will post some pics tomorrow.

For those looking for the M3 GT2, also be on the lookout for a black version. I haven't seen the RX7 or either Falcon in a while. Will keep my eyes out for them.

Fictional Javelin you say??!?!?!

I will pay you for 4 of them. (and 2 of the Bud Moore Mustangs)

(And I don't have any of the Penske ones yet either)

What's with the fake liveries now ought of a sudden?

I didn't buy any trading stock today, just 1 of each for myself. I should be able to head back to that WM tomorrow.

Also, if anybody still needs an A-Team van, I have a spare.

I got a bud moore mustang, but I can't find either of Mark Donohue's cars. I will also gladly pay for them (I only want one of each.)

AE86 - Found at a Walmart last week.

Yesterday's goodies, also from Walmart:

New releases in the Boulevard series. This same case/assortment is supposed to have a Buick Grand National in it too.

What the cards for Muscle set in the Racing series look like:

If anyone has an extra of the red & white Treasure Hunt Tyrrell P34, I'd love to do some trading for it.

Yeah... pretty soon my bounty that I had put out for Hakosukas will turn into the bounty for FB's. (I bought 6 hakosukas and 10 kenmeris from Jav, and have subsequently found like another 10 of each. I don't think any other kid in the metro has the Hakos or the Kenmeris. I own them all lol)
