    I'm guessing this will affect pricing on the previous wonder woman jet. Do you think it will hit the main line in the future?

    It might affect the prices a little. The original release being an SDCC exclusive and pretty limited will probably help it retain most of its value though. But this is a nice option for people who don't have one, want one, and don't want to pay the prices the original release is demanding.

    I've got a loose one, so I'm not sure if I'm going to mail in for this one or not.

    There's nothing in the blister...

    And you're going to buy $20 worth of HWs anyway, so it's more like $4 or whatever for shipping.
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    You mean a 4 year old's imagination created it.

    Someone will open one. Then make a joke about immediately losing it and not being able to find it.

    Yep, JDM craze is about to hit M2 hard. It would be nice if they didn't make every chase car look like trash.

    Hope this will lower the demand on hot wheels by the scalpels but doubt it

    Havent posted here in a while.

    This Race day set is incredible. Super cool card art. Each car is racing other cars from the set.

    Wish they could have used a different manufacturer to replace at least one of the Porsches though.

    Great castings made better by fantastic wheel choices. Sweet liveries on each.

    That new turbo fan wheel with skinny tire is A+.

    Id say my favorite in the set is the NSX. The livery is spot on. The metal base really makes this car. I dont remember the mainline plastic base version being this prominent and good looking. The wheel choice with staggered tires look amazing.

    The Mazda is a close second. Wish they would have done a black base so the front grille and chin spoiler would have been black to go better with the wheels. The green in the graphics is a metallic flakey green. Super cool and hard to notice unless out of the package.

    Will definitely put these on display.

    While I agree that it's a great collection, I also agree that three Porsches seems like a bit of overkill on one marque. Additionally, with a gazillion cars to choose from, was it necessary for the Mazda to be included in a second Car Culture set? My personal favorite is the 914, although I know that casting has been around for quite a while.

    Geez, that's just ridiculous!
    -------------------------------

    Got this in the mail Saturday. Not everyone's favorite mail-in but to me it sure beats paying $150-200 for the SDCC version:



    And stopped by my local Walmart this morning to find two fresh M cases:
