They've been out for quiet a while now.

I've got a few blue ones and white ones.

They are just part of the normal Hotwheels collection. I'm still trying to find KITT though.

No there's no BA one.

There's also Ken Block's Fiesta in both white and black. These look good.

You got to find the right shop. I went to the all the shops in the city and their stock turn over was crappy. So I tried the suburbs and have found that KMart usually have the best/new stock. But not all stores.

On the Biante forum, there's a whole thread on hotwheels cars. You can ask on there where you might get lucky.

Otherwise they are all on ebay but you end up paying about $5 per car rather than the $2.25 at the shops.

I always look in Kmart, Target and at the supermarkets or petrol stations, and i've never seen one. I guess being in a Ford town makes it harder to get one.

I know I could just get one off Ebay but its not the same.

You've really got to hunt around. I was seeing heaps of blue FG's for ages in Kmart's but now, there are none. Same with the white FG although I also found some at Woolies. At Woolies I also found a couple of white Ken Block Fiesta. And I managed to get 2 black Ken Block Fiesta's from a different Kmart. Plus a couple of A Team vans

Otherwise, there's plenty on ebay.

Good finds! They are hot property at the moment and don't stay on the shelves long!
Hotwheels FG comes in Blue and White this year only.
Hotwheels XB came out in 2010 in Yellow and Blue, then in 2011 in the Hotwheels Garage in metallic Bronze and Red then in 2012 in purple and now in red. There's also a Super Treasure hunt in purple with spanky bonnet accents and from the Gold Coast theres a limited edition run of 3000 in green, and again this year there's on in the Mystery Bags which is green, but different to the one from the Gold Coast.
