    The 8 pack is just the new thing. There are no more 9 packs. Inflation and all that. I usually see them at Target

    Ok guys... would like some advice on this one...

    Picked this one up for $7 and the card isn't in the best shape... should I free this truck? ©️2003

    Man that's a cool truck. It survived this long un opened I'd probably leave it closed.

    Not only would I open it, but I would also run it around the kitchen table too.
    The problem with that set is the cards are a little wider than the than others so they don’t fit any of the protector cases. I have the down & dirty Bajas I would like protectors for.

    You are correct.. they do make protectors in the Premium card size, but this card is definitely an odd size.

    I have an ultra hots from 2005 and The cards are oversized in that set also. They are as wide as the premiums but taller, I took a premium protector and just cut the top off. Most of the card is protected other than the hanging point. I will provide a pic later if I remember.

    The Impala is a cool find as well!

    I'm really leaning towards opening this one up.

    That is a great find. I set mine free so I will be the bad influence and say you should do the same.

    Super cool find on this Ambulance!

    This thing is in really good condition! Not only is the patient still with it, but there were 3 of them stuffed inside!

    Old Lesney, super cool!! I remember seeing some of these at old shows but none of them had the people inside of them.

    I found this one in a junk store in a plastic bag and it's in amazing condition for how old it is! I gave $13 for it bur that seemed reasonable to me.

    Lots of detail on that FJ under the hood and the OEM wheels.

    Well worth $13 for that condition with the people inside.
