I finally found a Hot Wheels Batmobile!!!

I didn't know you were looking either. I have probably bought at least 30 of them...they make great gifts...even my mechanic was happy to get one I have even managed to find a couple of the smooth front ones (as opposed to honeycomb grill)...I look every time I go to the shops. I suppose I will never grow up.

I still need one with a smooth grill.

I must be in the minority because they are never around.

To my delight I also found my first one a few weeks ago....I literally went through the peg boards to see if there were any others but that was it.

The one and only one I have found to date.

I still haven't seen any at stores around here yet

They are just now showing up in abundance in my area. I walked past at least 4 of them at Target. I managed to find both variations a few months ago, but didn't see any others for a while.

I have got to the point where i'm not even buying them anymore. Seen four in the last fortnight and passed on them all.

Good to hear you found one though.

But finding one on your own must feel great! I know when I'm looking for an item at retail finding it without help is a great toy high

yeah.

[Captain]

Congratulations!

I recently came into posession of one as well. Funny thing is, after finding one, I'm now seeing them all over the place??!!

[RG]

oh man, I'm sorry I didn't know you still hadn't found one. I thought that they were showing up well enough now that everyone here that wanted one got one.

October 21, 2007......found a Hot Wheels Batmobile in a KB Toys, Rotterdam, NY. I started lookling though the hot wheels cars that were on the pegs like I do whenever I go to a kmart or Walmart or KBs and was about to give up when I noticed a small pile of HWs on the shelf and low and behold....there it was!!!! I looked to see if I could find anymore but no dice. Just one. I have been looking for one of these for months, now it's MINE!!!!!! I went to pay for it and the cashier explained to me that the HWs were buy one get one half off but I told her that I only really wanted a Batmobile. She then went on to tell me that she saw two of them over there a little earlier so I went back to search again but could not find another. It didn't matter. I got one!!!!!!!!
