Damn! 23? I only have 7. Now I have to try and catch up.

I am up to 8 purchased, 3 given away.

I'm not seeing them any more. Maybe I should swing by a different Walmart to be sure.

I've had the best luck in Target....Have found very few in Wally-World....

Picked up 4 more at Walmart on Eglinton near Warden. So don't bother going there.

Just picked up three of the darker green at K-Mart if you can believe it.....

hotshoe , aka Don , . . . I have tried calling your phone number but it says that the quicken customer is either out of the area or turned his phone off . I haven't given up yet . How can I get in touch with you and buy 2 or those little suckers ?

I spoke too soon... found one at the nearest Walmart today...

Yup, I understand, let me know.

9 zero 1- 484- sixty nine 77.

I have four. Each place I go have max of two, if they had them at all. One was a gift for my 8 year old for Easter. I just picked up one more to customize, as my original two will stay in the packaging. This is all a result of looking every time I visit a Target Walmart or TRUs since January when folks on the East coast first started reporting them available. I will continue to look for them, but I visit these stores often anyway as I am a single dad on a tight budget. TRUs is on the way to a Target. I really do not know why about 10 Honda Ridgelines are available each time I go. What a waste. Wish they were teeners, then I would score 5 at a time.

Because nobody buys them. I see lots of Priuses (Prii?) as well. Yeah, that's the car I want running down my Hot Wheels track.

Just seems Matchbox thought there would be a bigger market for these and made more in relation to others, not a comment on the market itself, more of the production.

This is what you get in the UK:

I found one on sale at Meijers last week for fifty cents.

Finally scored one... or two

My awesome wife knew I was looking for it. For my birthday, she spent way too much ordering a pair of them from Amazon. One for me, and one to satisfy the 3-yr old so he won't want to play with the one that's mine.



I thought it would be cool to have one... but now that I have one, I realize I need at least two more:

One to keep in the box
One to modify to look like mine (paint it yellow, cut the roof, maybe add bumper tits)
One to make into a keychain

The detail of the light lenses and bumpers (with black bumper tops) is impressive for Matchbox.

I've hit all the local K-Mart, Target, and Wal-Mart. Got 3 so far. One to keep unopened, one on my desk at work to fidget with, and one for the kids. I'm hoping to pick up 2 more so I can send one to a buddy as a Ph.D. graduation present, and hack at one for kicks.

As a bonus, the lighter Matchbox color matches my Ravenna 914 very nicely, so I don't need to modify it!

Got a text today from Ron...Pcar916...He was in a Wally-World and saw THIS

I wonder how many times I and the rest of us have passed this up looking for the single 914 in Matchbox??? I'll have to look a little closer from now on......Good eye Ron.....

Interersting. I had my mother take a look at the Lodi Modesto Locations and she said she saw one in a collector pack, but I said they were only available in individual. Maybe she did see this too.

Not me! I check all those collector packs too!

I have checked all the collector packs but have not had any luck. Family Dollar doesn't really carry the individuals but does have the collector packs.

I found the same collector pack at my local Wallmart in Aliso Viejo, CA. There were two there. I only bought one. $10.00 just to get the one car I wanted...
If you hurry you might find the other one!!

I was hoping to find an all porsche collector pack, only seeing the prancing horse pack.

I had a 2 hr drive to get a part today and hit a few WM, Targets and a K-mart. I scored 4 I also got a pack with some interesting stuff in it. Pics later.

Hmmm. Going to check out a motorcycle on Sunday. Perhaps I should look up the Targets and Walmarts near my destination...

I found one today at Walmart.

I found two collector packs with 914s at my local Walmart today. I did not buy them but if anyone on the board wants them, I will buy them. Not looking to make any money. I estimate total cost with shipping to be around $15.00 each.

I picked up the collector pack at K-mart as it was on sale for $6.99. There was another with a light blue convertible Chevy Bel Air I had to have Theo is getting some more cars soon (Zach's son gets all the ones I dont want )

I wish I had an Uncle Dr. Evil. Sweet.

Yopu has found 26 so far. She will be giving them away at WCR2010! (I get to keep one though )

26??? Holy crap!!! No wonder it took me so long to find some!!!

I finally found 2 today!! Also a R8 and an RS4... Gotta love the Porsche/ Audi combo.

I'll be modifying mine next week!!

DUDE! Noel and I scored 4 at target. I am seeing a lot of 10 car packs with them inside. I can not seem to find any at walmart. I have found one for several visits.

Thats funny, the 2 that I found were in walmart..

I saw a couple of 10 car packs w/ them..

HA HA Very Funny Yopu!!!

I came home from my weekend adventure to find she had found a "Service Pack" with a tow truck and a flat bed and put one of the 914's up on the flat bed... She is soooooooooooooo cute!

I couldn't find any at the local Toys R Us this weekend. Still looking.....

Dion

Found 2 this weekend in Meijer stores.
1 at each store.

"914World" decal on a Matchbox 914...hmm...

Does anyone know where I can find a small set of jackstands for my Matchbox 914?

Have these heavy duty ones for sale!

i finally found one!

OK boyz,

Once again you failed to stop the Kenny from stalking the toy departments for small diecast cars....

Since I gots 6 or so of the teeners, I passed on the expensive Matchbox car combos with the 914.

However, I did score a Hotwheels Ferrari 512 in a combo box. It was red and wouldn't stop calling. Particularly since the box was 40% off.

Now, the real score.....

A Greenlight VW w30. What's a VW w30 you ask???

A Dr. Porsche 1930's vintage VW Beetle prototype...

It had no rear window.....

$ 3.00 US.

MUST HAVE !!!

What's the difference between that and a VW bug?

Here's the VW w30 next to a small 1950's vintage Beetle Cop car that I bought as a kid. It used to be green and white with a blue bubble on top.

That little VW beetle is actually solid metal and weighs a lot. Note the o-ring rubber tires...

Now, here's the new red Ferrari....

And my previous yellow one.

Back ends open to show the engines...

Scotty, those red wheels and whitewalls were so you. I knew you would like it.

I picked up a better painted, Lesny series, red Thing, and a similar Jag

Kenny, you have all the luck with the abnormal ones. I like that v30.

Passed on the new Mini. British racing green, black and white checked roof.

Maybe next time. Somebody got a XKE jag in BRG that I was coveting until I got some money.

To me, $3.00 is a big expense.

You should restore the solid metal VW beetle to its original condition.
