    I just slit the plastic bubble on the bottom on 3 sides to lift car out. The long cut is against the card. You can put the car back in and it doesnt show unless you look at the bottom. The card still looks good.

    If you do keep your Hot Wheels on the cards that plastic bubble will turn yellow over time if in sunlight.

    They should be in all the Walmart’s soon. I’m sure the scalpers will buy them all up but be patient you should be able to find one for $1

    Jungle Jim Liberman also ran a mid 70s Chevrolet Monza funny car. The other car is Dave Stricklers 62 Chevrolet Belair. These are 1/24 model kits that really came out nice. Its unfortunate but the quality of models and paints seem to have really gone down hill the last few years. Its getting harder to get results like these anymore. Mobius apparently just released a 64 Chevy II Gasser I had been waiting for but was disappointed with the quality of the build I saw. Been getting some nice results customizing metal die casts instead.december 2020  4 239.jpg december 2020  4 240.jpg december 2020  4 244.jpg december 2020  4 245.jpg december 2020  4 247.jpg

    Scored these three pickup trucks this morning at Walmart. Chevy Siverado, Dodge Rebel, and a Mazda. Now I'm on the hunt for the 56 Ford pickup truck and 65 Ford Ranchero that Kilo Charlie posted last week. Those two are freaking bad ass !

    These two that you're looking for are "special edition" or whatever.. they were $2.14 each and are usually down the aisle farther at Walmart.

    Also, there's this 56 Ford to look out for...

    Obviously the Color Shifters are more expensive but I couldn't resist .

    Scoooore ! Scoooore !
    Found the 56 F-100 and 65 Ranchero this morning at my 3rd Walmart of the day. Kilo Charlie was absolutely correct that the HW Stars & Stripes cars are seperated from the regular Hot Wheels shelf. Still looking for that 56 Ford panel truck.......

    Dude, where do you get these artistic skills from ? Your work on these little cars is so amazing. My passenger mirror on my Tacoma stopped working months ago and I'm in no rush to get it fixed but you are looking to replace yours ASAP. That my friend is amazing. Keep posting your works please....
