Christmas time usually means I got a few things for the collection.

**3757chevy** · 01-02-2021, 09:49 PM

Nice haul.

KShortell · 01-05-2021, 10:54 AM

Cool! I haven't seen the campers on the shelves. Neat find.

Just call me Sean · 01-11-2021, 11:59 PM

I picked up this one, but because I like vans:

That van is cool. There are 4 of the crushed car castings so far with 2 more rumored to be coming. They're all 4 based on other existing Hot Wheels castings. I bought all 4 just for the crushed cars. I wasn't concerned about the monster trucks they came with. LOL

Just call me Sean · 01-14-2021, 02:07 AM

I wanted them all, but I NEEDED the van.

**too much stuff** · 01-16-2021, 11:50 AM

My wife got these for me for christmas from an antique store.

**special-K** · 01-17-2021, 10:14 AM

Nice. I never knew about that JL Blazer. I have a few of their first ones. HW made a nice 72 Blazer casting they have only released a few limited editions in. I wish they'd do a 4wd version of that... or another 2wd

**too much stuff** · 02-14-2021, 05:48 PM

Got a couple more recently. Some of the older generation may remember the EZ-HAUL. I have seen a few of the 69-70 C-50 box trucks like these.
Enjoy...

**special-K** · 02-14-2021, 09:08 PM

Yep, EZ Haul. I remember. I have one of those toys, too. Yours are the only others I've seen. I guess it was a give away toy

Came in a cereal box as a prize... I actually have a 4'x6' EZ-Haul trailer that i haul my duck hunting gear in.

hgs_notes · 04-18-2021, 10:10 PM

On the road for work so I stopped by the local Walmart to see what they had. Found a couple new ones.

**Dieselwrencher** · 04-21-2021, 05:12 AM

More nice scores! Do you guys leave them all in the packages in your collections? I have quite a few 1/64 tractors and couldn't leave them all in the packages.

The rare ones I did but they sure are harder to store and display.

I leave most of them in the package except for the hot wheels ones. On those I have a separate display I have been putting them in but I usually have more than one and have packaged copies of most.

**too much stuff** · 05-02-2021, 09:10 AM

Just won this one on ebay...

hgs_notes · 12-26-2021, 10:38 AM

Christmas haul.

hgs_notes · 12-26-2021, 10:38 AM

Found these at hobby lobby while Xmas shopping.

hgs_notes · 12-26-2021, 11:04 AM

Not a die cast but a swap meet find.

**special-K** · 12-28-2021, 09:25 PM

Cool collectible. I'm not familiar with who they are.

I hope to go to a toy show this winter held by a tractor and steam engine this winter. I don't think they had it last year. Hopefully it will happen this year. There is a guy there with a great selection of Greenlight Chevy Trucks. Nice to pick what you want and not pay shipping. There is also a guy who builds cool customs. A lot of 4wd stuff

hgs_notes · 01-01-2022, 10:33 PM

The Chmielewski Funtime band was a somewhat famous Midwestern polka band back in the 70s. Probably before that too. Based out of Minnesota.

I was reading thru some of these older posts and realized what I found for this Christmas and thought was something new was in fact 4-5 years old. I did paint mine to match my 72 K5. I just finished it Today.

hgs_notes · 10-01-2022, 11:51 PM

It's been awhile since I found a new hot wheels 69 truck on the peg. Got a pair of these at the grocery store tonight.

4u2nv · 10-02-2022, 06:18 AM

Does that represent the Rubik cube ???

**special-K** · 10-04-2022, 07:54 AM

The Partridge Family bus comes to mind as well. I see the Rubic's Cube theme. It's art!! I'll get one to put with the Easter issue '69.
