The blazer is nice but I really like the blister card they put on it!

 

There is no TH as pictured below...

 

Technically it would be a Super Treasure Hunt and I realized that after I posted but was too lazy to post about it again haha

 

For the Porsche people

 

Todays take. Fresh restock, person before me was going through all of them when I showed up. He left plenty good picks and left them neatly stacked. I really appreciate people like this.

 

Walked in walmart today and found my second treasure hunt in a week, saved it for my best friend:

 

He surprised me with these this weekend:

 

Ordered this one online:



Found these hidden in walmart today:

 

Your box is packed and ready for tomorrow. The two toyotas we talked about and some surprises that were duplicates for me

 

Just getting back into collecting and learning, how long do these TH runs last? Can I find them all year or is there a limited amount of each one made?

 

Someone else can explain it better than I can. But there are X number of cases released per year. Each case has 2 regular Treasure Hunts and one Super Treasure Hunt. So they arent as super rare as you might think as there are millions of stores getting their own cases, but people know what to look for so even if they dont like the car, they buy it just to have it or to resell it.

I will personally only buy a TH or STH of a car I would personally want unless i’m buying it to gift/trade with a close friend. I’m not a reseller and dont intend to ever be. Some of you guys are super awesome and super generous so when I find stuff you are having trouble finding, I offer it up here for trade or cost of shipping plus a couple $ for the effort.

 

Oh no.. there's not that many THs or STHs per case.

Edit: it's more like 1 TH per case and 1 STH per 10 to 15 cases.

Mattel doesn't provide production numbers so who's to say for sure. I've gotten to open a couple of cases in my time and none of them has STHs

 

So much want on the 500E. If only the Stratos was in the Alitalia livery...who am I kidding, it's a Stratos!

 

@Kilo Charlie your box is packaged and ready for drop off tomorrow
