So please post in this thread If you find some cool Hot Wheels or Matchbox cars for everyone to see.

Props to Shintaro for the custom logo

This is my favorite find so far this year, Hot Wheels actually planned ahead with two separate release dates for these two Camaros, the older one and the newer one! Wow, just loving the matching paint tampos..........

If you went to the K-Mart Hot Wheels Collectors Day you could have scored the LAST color Variation in the VW Beetle set, the White Race Team Beetle. The Blue version was released in Jan-Feb, and then in Jun-July the purple variation came out, and the last of the set is this white version.

I don't have anything fancy and I blame Phat for making me compulsively checking every Hot Wheels rack in every store I visit but here's a few to get me started.

Last week collector's event including some older Hot Wheels I thought were cool:

Found these this Morning, the Acura NSX and Mad Manga repaint. The Fast Fish with Gulf tampo is the new T-Hunt, I hope they make some more "Gulf" tampo cars for 2013.
