    I’ve never even seen any zamac at Walmart. I have however, found red editions at target, I believe those are exclusive to them.

    Yes, the Red Editions are Target Exclusives.

    https://hotwheels.fandom.com/wiki/Red_Edition

    There are 12 per year and usually come 3 at a time.

    Introducing the jankiest AUTOart Mad Max 2 Interceptor...(Clarkson voice) in the world.

    [​IMG]
    When I received the car from the UK I was heartbroken as it’s in very rough shape, including a visible scratch on the door that the ad didn’t depict. I reached out to the seller and she initially offered me a refund of about $30 USD for the car since the scratch wasn't disclosed. I responded that I'd much prefer to just return it straight up. Because she shipped using eBay's GSP, it was super complex to set up a return I guess. She elected to refund me and let me keep it. So what was a POS at $390 becomes beautiful at $0. I feel conflicted about the whole thing, if I'm being truly honest. My intention was not to end up with something for nothing, but here we are. I'll pay it forward to someone else. The seller seemed like a good person who simply didn't have a grasp on what she was describing (despite having many other diecasts for sale). I left her good feedback as I think she did "get it" with this one.

    Known flaws include:
    • The eleventeen pack a day smoke smell. The box and styrofoam are discolored.
    • Helen Keller could have repaired the roof spoiler better, or at least used less glue.
    • The LH door has a scratch
    • The LH quarter panel has a nice superglue spot
    • The roof has many, many superglue spots.
    • The RH quarter has a bubble from being an AUTOart
    • The RH front fender has another superglue fingerprint
    • A bazillion other glue spots
    • The GT scoop on the hood had been repaired and the repair failed, so the grill is sitting on Dog's seat.
    This was advertised as "minimal wear and tear" and clearly this thing's been worn and torn. However, once you get it into the case you basically don't notice anything and for free, I can deal with some flaws.

    I'm basically at a point how I'm going to legit have a Mad Max case if they ever make March Hare. I'm just waiting for Max's Sandman to get released and com from Down Under and then waiting to get Big Bopper at Christmas.

    Here are a few at the store (Five Below)...and they were only $1.00 each. I don't think they carry Hot Wheels though, just Matchbox.

    First I've seen of the offroad Porsches. I do know I haven't been finding many cool ones like the others. I think there's a few scalpers in my area
