Send an email to infoaust@mattel.com just stating that you're interested in a 2010 Hot Wheels Poster (the one detailing all the cars for the year), and they will send one out to you, free of charge. I had to wait a few weeks for mine, as the posters were not available or ready at the time I emailed, but it eventually arrived for me.

Rik, come grab me Thursday, we can go through Marion, look for the XB. I haven't gone hotwheels shopping in a bit.
I hope to extend the chev/chrysler side of the collection, not much ford stuff that I can see, if I see some I'll grab

Wherever mate, I want to buy about 10 more, got some space. And maybe a corkboard to hang a few of the favourite ones. I'll take this to Txt, but for the record, if anyone has any mid 70's Chrysler hotwheels, oz or USA, I'll be interested to hear from you, interested in buying.

I cop crap from a few of my friends about "buying toy cars" or "buying kids toys", I tell them I refer to it as "purchasing adult collectables".
