Re: Die-cast 67-72

I just got home from Target. I found one each of the High Profile Red 72 Cheyenne and the HP Blue 57 Suburban. They had a lot of the Johnny Lightning diecasts marked down too..

Re: Die-cast 67-72

This website needs to produce a custom tampo limited edition.I always wanted to do one,but couldn`t justify the quantity.This sitr has the power,I think.

Does anyone else collect custom imprinted Hot Wheels?I just won a`53 Chevy Pickup:Lime green w/Rt66 logos,made for a Rt66 celebration in Barstow,CA.I have some from rod runs,advertising,clubs,etc.The 1/24th banks are cool,but Hot Wheels are even cooler`cuz they`re so small.

I agree they need to do a custom logo HOTWHEELS. Maybe even a DUB CITY TRUCK 1/24th scale.
I did these logo's off the paint on computer then bought some decal paper at Wally World. Printed them out and placed them on it.

Are you talking about any one(s) in particular? If so, what's the number on the top right hand corner of the post?

Sorta, just not as nice. It's not easy painting that small stuff either, and forget about driving it!

Re: Die-cast 67-72

Where did the Black with Flames Jada one come from?

I picked up the White/Teal and Copper/Black ones a few years ago, but I've never seen that flamed black one before.

Now if I can just find the two Von Dutch ones

Re: Die-cast 67-72

It came in a boxed set of 5 cars/trucks. Labeled as "5 Deep". There was also a yellow/white one; it had the same cars/trucks as the black one, they were just painted different colors. The 5 pack came out around the same time as the white/teal and copper/black that you have.

Re: Die-cast 67-72

That is the best blazer yet, IMHO. I assume it is hitting the pegs. I am going to try and resist the urge to buy two on e-bay and look at the stores first.
