[Polyal]

OK so I gave in and brought one off ebay. Yeah it will cost $10 by the time it gets here but it means I dont need to go hunting so Ill call it even..LOL

[TUF_302]

I was in Kmart yesterday just having a look around and came across the last yellow XB on the shelf needless to say i grabbed that sucker quickly! My gf was like why do you have a toy car lol!

[smciner1]

Well the two Blue XBs arrived from Ebay and they look awesome!

[huggiebear]

[bigdave]

The "Treasure Hunts" (Green stripe down the side) are going to be the bane of my existence (my eBay feedback is going up with a few recent purchases on there!) and I think I might not bother with any further "Super Treasure Hunts", as they just get to ridiculous prices on eBay most of the time.

But I'm going to give it a damn good go, at the very least I want each and every one of the 2010 Premieres!

You do relize hotwheels do make diferent colour variations of each car 2 sometimes 3 diff colours the delorian ive seen in silver and gold .the cheville in red, gold and blue,67 shellby in blue ,green and white so instead of 240 cars you could be looking at 500 to 700 cars

[Poidevin]

So how's everyones 2010 collections looking? I'm about 3 quarters done (I think) but I haven't bothered with colour variations and have also blanked the existence of the treasure hunts and mystery cars lol, in this whole year I have never even seen one on the shelfs.
So here's my collection as it stands now -
2010 HW Premiere 40/52
Track Stars 11/12
HW Garage 7/10
Muscle Mania 10/10
Nightburnerz 7/10
HW Performance 10/10
HW City Works 8/10
Faster Than Ever 7/10
HW Hot Rods 7/10
HW Racing 8/10
Hot Auction 5/10

Also does anyone know what the TBD cars #25, 45 and 135 are? I'd hate to see them in the store and miss picking them up.

[Qwik6]

#25 is a Batmobile & #45 is an 86 Chevy Monte Carlo SS. Got both last week.

I wouldn't stress too hard; rik will collect one of each car, not one of each car in each colour.
But if he was to buy one of each in each colour, I don't doubt that he'd succeed in his endeavour.

[Fled74]

Finally got one, at K-mart in Footscray, hidden at the back of the peg.

[roadrage77]

Long live Hotwheels!

[Kingsley]

I managed to get a couple.
It's funny watching a bunch of adults gathered around the Hot Wheels display looking for XB coupes!!!

[gregaust]

[sneaky]

[Qwik6]

[hillbilly5.0]

[sprint347dave]

[RedHotGT]

Yeah I had a few too... I actually had 20 of them....
Now down to 5...


Still hunting for the red and blue ones...

[Lost Down Under]

Just a bit of info on the blue and yellow XB coupe.
I know a bloke in Port Maquarie that deals in die cast and he has bucket loads of both.
Sells them on e-bay for $25 ea, but has said that anyone from the forum can e-mail him direct - athaaa69@hotmail.com (Anthony) and he will sell them for $15 ea.
He didn't know that the forum existed and is interested in becoming a sponsor.
He has some unbelievable stuff. A lot of Mustangs, GTs, XR series ect.

Just as a footnote, I have no business affiliation with Anthony.
