Re: Die-cast 67-72
I found the new silver JL blazer today at a couple different toys-r-us stores in Grand Rapids, MI. I also got a pair of 1972 GMC tow truck kits from a hobby store here, N scale size.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Does anyone have the Highway 61 Short Box Black 72 that was released in 2005. I've been looking all over for one and can't find one for sale anywhere.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I believe that is the one I have, but I slightly modified it.......I swapped grills with the 69 model so it would look closer to what my 70 was going to look like

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I guess I'm just slow. I just noticed different wording on the Hot Wheels Custom 69 Treasure Hunt and Super Treasure Hunts. Is this significant? Is any one worth more? I know the Super is worth more.
1st pic is of a Super T-Hunt and a Regular T-Hunt. 2nd pic is 2 Regular Treasure Hunts. 3rd pic is a Super T-Hunt$. 4th pis is a Super Trea$ure Hunt$. (This one, the card looks darker in colors; but I think it's probably just the picture/lighting.) I thought all the Supers were supposed to be designated with a $ sign. Maybe the Super T-Hunt in the 1st pic is "mis-carded"?

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Well, I scored three '69 Custom T-hunts today. Ended up paying $11.00 each with shipping. I am sure they will be half that price in a couple months, but I was bored today and wanted to see if I could get a couple. 5 auctions from the same seller ended with one minute in between. Sure made for a frenzied ebay session. Now I just need to find a Super at a decent price.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I don't have any pictures right now, but the hotwheels treasure hunt series this year has the custom 69 in it, and it looks very cool!! As far as models, that cheyenne and the open road camper and the racer's wedge are prolly the most expensive 67-72 models that I can think of.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I got one the other day.I`ve never seen so many Treasure Hunts available.
Thanks Paul,I passed on that open Road kit because it was built.Just holding out.I recently bought the`69 MPC Fleetside that is a Fire Truck on the box.I have the 68,69,70,71,and 72 kits.So,I also need an MPC`67 kit.The`68 is a psychedelic wrecker on box,`69 is the fire truck,`70 is a NHRA support pickup,`71 is the "Racer`s Wedge",and`72 is a wrecker with "TRW" lettering.It sure is addicting once you realize you could possibly end up with one of each.I`ve been casually collecting for many years...Interested,yet not going out of my way to buy anything.Once I set up a display it`s like a game or puzzle to fill in all the blanks.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Is that white paint on the front wheel arch outside of the flames or a glare?I noticed this and looked at mine and the white is inside the lines.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I just received my three in the mail. One of them has the white outside of the flame lines (like Andy's appears to appear) and the other two don't. HW painting is marginal at best anyway.
I saw a variation which did not have all of the flames on the side. Only two closest to the bottom and a white ring over the wheel well. Actually looked pretty cool.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I just received a pair of the THs today. One Super and one Regular, both on short cards. They both have the white paint outside the flame line. I have some other Regulars and they all have the white inside the lines. If you look at all of the earlier 69s; especially with the chrome grills/bottoms, you'll notice that nearly every one of them has some kind of defect.
I've got a Regular TH that has the Super paint but has the Regular wheels and is mounted on a Regular card.
