They could do the black Civics (Boulevard casting), the FD RX7 is coming soon, and the R33 has been used a few times, although not recently. Would be nice if they tooled the rest, they'd be easy sellers.
Because the distribution is crap this year. The last bins to hit nationally were D case and the blue Miata is H case so you could see them soon or months down the road.
Stopped by a Tomica Shop while in Tokyo, and picked up some Tomica diecast models. I geeked out because of the large JDM selection available (some favorites include the R34 GTRs, 22B, RE-Amemiya FD). Anyone else collect Tomica?

The Initial D cars are awesome!
Kroger stores are starting to get some inventory, my local store got a D case minibin (288-ct) and while there were no Supers, I liked this find a lot more! For reference, the Miata on top has the correct wheels.

Been meaning to post this one.

Stopped in Target last week. AS I rounded the corner to the aisle with the Hot Wheels I saw a fellow eyeing the HWs from the other end of the aisle, I think nothing of it honestly since I wasn't expecting to really find anything good. I then look at the racks and see that Super sitting out front. With no hesitation I reached out and grabbed it, and as I was doing so the guy sees it and watches it become mine.
Best timing for getting to the HWs yet.
Also grabbed this multi-pack.

And this week I found the Milano.

Nice score! That reminds me, I walked into Game Stop last week looking for a Star Wars figure exclusive, happened to notice a case that said Hot Wheels and asked if I could look through it, and there it was. This one has been eluding me for quite some time. For reference, the Star Wars cars were in another case. Everything was buy one get one half off, so the Super was $0.65 (I didn't buy the mainline version) and fortunately the stickers peeled right off with no trouble.

And a local collector hooked me up with the Star Wars Celebration Biggs Darklighter exclusive:

No problem! For reference, there should not have been different wheels, so this is an error or variation depending on how you classify it. Good luck on your hunt!

Today at Publix I scored the Gold Exclusive Slave I, just need to find the single packed Gold Millennium Falcon now:

Walked around the corner to the HWs endcap and saw this:

It was sitting right up front waiting for me. A lot of people have recommended to look for the TH logo on this one because it's hard to tell the regular from the Super. It's even harder when they don't put the TH logo on there! lol

So... I did a thing with my cases. It took hours but was so worth it.

And then I blogged about it. It's kind of a long post, so I'm not gonna retype it here. I'll just link and post some of the pix.

Dang all these pics are killing me
I'm still waiting for the builders to finish our new house. I can imagine all these up in my garage wall though lol.
Jamie that TH :slayer: And now I need to find that Guardians space ship, ugh
Eric props on the wheel variation, also that batman car was previously a matchbox casting iirc? I have several here. And no luck finding gold Star Wars here yet. We had 2 toy conventions, the stars wars gig, and a hot wheels diecast show in the span of the past 45 days the the pegs are picked clean.
Adam those displays are killer. I'm jelly
I think I've had too much beer. For a second there, I thought Adam's first pict was somehow blinking.
Thanks guys! These cases are increasing my enjoyment of the tiny cars even more.
See, there's an easy way to solve that problem. You buy a case. Somehow, about 15-30 minutes after putting it on the wall, you'll find it's full of cars. Then you get hours of endless fun shuffling cars around. hahaha!
I could easily fill 2 more cases with displayable loose cars. I've only got wallspace for the 3 cases though. The other cars languish in storage.
I need more wallspace for carded cars too.
