I took my three year old to Target today to get some diapers and other stuff. We went to ‘look at cars’, which is Sebastian for ‘buy Hot Wheels’, and he immediately spotted this.

He also picked out a ten pack of Matchbox cars, and I was a little bit surprised at checkout to find that this was the more expensive purchase. That said, it’s super nice and if any Hot Wheel is worth $12, it’s this one.

Whoa, that’s cool. I might have to hunt that one down.

I have one, and I agree. Desperately looking for the Snake and Mongoose hauler sets as well.

I brought home an R33 GTR and a Quattro Sport the other night- the kids pick who gets what but they all count as my collection!

I almost bought a similar one, the VW carrying a 356, but couldn’t justify the price no matter how much I wanted it. I did buy fou r other cars, including a BMW 2002 , so at least I didn't leave empty handed.

Keep checking target. I see them now and then.  Also AandJ Toys has the case with them, plus two others, for sale. It’s the snake and mongoose, the Momo Porsche, and a Greddy truck with a Laurel.

Yeah these things are awesome. I lucked out and found all four in one trip to Target, coincidentally during a one-day 20% off all Hot Wheels sale!
