    For All You Hot Wheels Collectors - 40th Annv. Sets are out

    The Wal-Mart exclusive 40th Anniversary 40 packs are out. There are only 6 per store.

    Bring your check book, they are $90 a piece!!!!

    Only thing I disagree with is the 07 car, should have been the Batmobile, the most sought after car this year.

    Here is mine:

      That's very nice. Not really too bad at $2.25 per car.

      I might just bite and go purchase a set if there are any available...thanks for the heads up.

        I think these cars are about $3 apiece loose (if not more) in the "Since 68" line, if you can find them. Plus these are exclusive colors. I have been out of the HW loop for a a few months now, gave up on any new stuff, but I did like this set.

        Adam, I did pick up two sets. I got one for my brother (I called him from the store but couldn't get hold of him) so I picked an extra one up. I also called Aeons to see if he needed one, but could not get hold of him either. So if neither my brother or Aeons don't want it, you can have it if you want. I warn you now, this thing is big and heavy, shipping will be kind of high ($20 or so I estimate).

        These will not last long with only 6 per store. They started hitting the stores this past weekend.

              I actually disagree with a couple of them. The 06 should have been the 55 panel or VW Ghia and the 05 should have been the Boneshaker. Plus it does not have the "Red Baron", which is my favorite casting of all times. I remember tearing up quit a few as a kid.

                Having scanned all the cars searching for it, I was just about to write the exact same thing.

                GO THE RED BARON!

                  Slippery,

                  Did you ever see the custom Baron Drag I did?
