    I might have an extra. I will dig through my stash.

    The ghostbusters car was pretty cool. I am still looking for the A Team van.

    Managed to get the last one on the shelves (at least this week) and a BMW M3 GT2. It's kind of funny that if you go to WalMart on Saturday morning, there's always a bunch of us grown assed men in the Hot Wheel section, just cutting up and BSing while the wives go grocery shopping.
    Yeah, it's an 8v. If I wanted a sporty car, I'd buy an R.

    Dumb question about these Easter cars - where are they located? I've checked the end caps in the Easter and the regular Hot Wheels sections - no luck.

    Got me one of these on it's way right now. It's an OttoModels resin piece. Found mine on eBay, though apparently they are usually available through many vendors overseas. Or at least they are when the piece hasn't been sold out. I'd never run across one till just recently & have seen very few Mk3 models available in 1:18th scale. Can't wait to see it in person.

    After 15 years of trying, I finally got a black on tan 1/18 scale Kyosho Tucker for a steal.

    I refused to pay the $100-250 they go for mint in the box. I fell on a BIN price that was JUST listed and scored it cheap!

    Looking forward to pics, sounds like quite the find.

    My finds of the day, not quite as impressive yet I welcome every new addition to my very amateur collection.

    Was just at a toy/comic show yesterday. Those Hot Wheels DeLoreans were there for $25 each. Not even the BTTF ones! I did not purchase any.

    Oh. It got my attention because the colour combination didn't exist on the P34. I already have the blue one and the white one.

    Grocery shopping this morning lead to another detour, with some finds I liked enough to share.

    First are two cars with some interesting detail.



    The interesting detail being the solar panels with the distinctive design on the roof, the clear window of the Corvette did photograph well with my phone so I won't bother with that one.


    I know I have another of these, I forget the colour.



    My favorte find, I love this truck including the wheel choice, the graphics, and the aftermarket sunroof.


    To finish, something quite pretty.

    I stumbled upon and bought a 1/24 plastic Revell Zender Corrado in box but not bags at a huge weekly flea market in Berlin for 3€. I know its rare, but how much is it worth? I didn't see any on UK,US or German eBay. Have I found a gem?

    If not overall, a gem to someone in the Corrado forums.
