Benner Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 Well doin some small grocery shopping the other day at Kroger and I walked by the Hotwheels display and decided to stop and check them out. They've actually done a good job recently of picking up the new performance lines. I've never been into their outlandish cars but never really found much I liked, but within 1 minute found several that I liked alot so I bought them for $1 apiece. They also had several of the new full size trucks. Looked for a SVT Raptor but no luck with that one. Left to right 2009 GTR, 2009 CTS-V, Satin Black LP 560-4,2010 GT500, and 2010 Mustang GT http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj32/Formula98/55374861.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patterson Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 I almost always grab one or two for myself when I pick some up for the kids. It's gonna turn into a sickness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Remember the days of hotwheels that changed colors depending on water temp, and then the ones that had the sides flip in to look smashed after you hit em. I used to have thousands of hotwheels when i was a kid and lost them all in a move when my parents seperated. Maybe ill start buying some for my son Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 I had litterally 90 Honda/Acura and other various Import Hotwheels a few years back. Me and the gf had split up and she wanted them more then I did at the time, so I gave them to my cousin to give to the gf. What does the cousin do? She lets her asshole kid tear them all open and play with them, needless to say the hotwheels are now lost. I am debating on starting collecting again for my kid, but might wait til he's a little older and let him pick out ones he wants, not the ones his dad wants lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchy chan Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I just got the gold and regular DeLoreans, and the 60's batmobile. New models are awesome. we have the silver delorean...i keep forgetting what all we have...i heard we have an evo and ford gt40 somewhere so i was researching my new datsun last night and saw that in 2009 they made a similar datsun, except it was a 1969 and i liked the paint job better...so my fiance and daughter found it today plus they had hot wheel track on sale for 50 cents each...so we got some and my daughter LOVES it...won't stop playing with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
