    I picked up a VW Drag bus color changer and dipped it under warm water and dried it off. Initially it turned white but then changed to a mellow yellow color. I wasn't overly thrilled with the pukish green color.

    nobody was happy with that version since it was not a solid metal casting like the prior ones, the ONLY thing worth a darn on that casting is the wheels for swapping.

    Here is a haul of 2015s I found at Walmart. The GTO, Chevelle and F150 are really nice castings. I wish Mattell didnt ruin the Viper's front lip, but I bought it anyway as it is a nice looking car otherwise.

    And then at a small pharmacy that only stocks 5 cars next to cheap garbage toys I found the Skyline and Greenwood Vette. Although it's not a Super, the Greenwood really is a nice casting.

    And finally the 1979 Ford F150 Walmart Edition special ordered from EBay. Going to be using this for a custom Bigfoot monster truck diecast.

    Just picked these up tonight. Didn't realize I already had the 240. Picked up the 2 Matchbox cars as well as I love the Caterham and the M1.

    The M1 and Caterham are two really nice pieces. I bought the M1 the other day. Feels much better quality than most Hot Wheels.

    Kroger is having a "buy two get one free" sale on many of the Hot Wheels lines. Including Pop Culture.


    Of course there is NO Kroger in Florida


    Happy Hunting guys!

    Hit Walmart last night for the first time in a couple of months. I was particularly pleased to find the Barracuda, as I've really like the older ones for a long time.

    My son finally found the pedal car today.
    It was at Publix Grocery Store.

    Just went to the Hobby Train show and picked up a couple of cars for a $1 each.



    Also, my daughter has been wanting a model train set for a while. Had to decide between the Hogwarts Express or one of the Thomas train sets. She decided on the Thomas set so that's a new hobby to get into.
