I think that is an assembly error, not a different style. If you check out ebay right now, there is also one with smaller front wheels on the back, looks pretty odd. There was one a while back that was missing the side stripes too...LOL
Painted! Please keep in mind this thing is crazy small. The original paint in all its metallic glory looks crazy on the hot wheels vert when bright light hits it (look at the metalflake!!!LOL) . For this reason I took this shot with it sitting in the sunshine...two coats of base and three coats of clear...it has great shine and acts like the big car, kinda copper creamy orange but where light hits it goes crazy. Once I get a chance will paint the details on body and finish up. Should look neat. Edit: second pic added to show it is indeed smooth as some say the metalflake makes paint look very rough so look down side of body...
That is pretty awesome. I like the life size comparisons too:Brow: You could make some money off that i gaurantee it, customizing them to replicate other peoples' cars :TU:
Wife phoned me tonight as she found these at the local walmart....when she said 71 GSX I thought awesome but then she said it had no hood and big motor so that kinda blows it for me (plus the 6.77 they wanted for it!)..front grille is indeed 71 but back bumper is 70. Go figure. Oh yeah and it said 8+ so I'm too young for that!!! She phoned me this picture.
The color is crazy, really, really bright....if it had stock hood on it I would probably buy one just because its a 71...JL also has stock looking 71 out there somewhere, have yet to see one though...
Cool Cadi camino kinda thing. Yellow vega and ss wagon. Redlina racing paddy wagon, green javelin and 67 camaro opening hood. 57 plymouth fury treasure hunt along with srt challenger and a nova and a really cool 69 chevelle kinda like muscle machine look. kinda short and stout. Cartoonish looking with big side pipes. I'll try to get a close up picture. Oh and no sign's of a red 70 GSX yet.
Found a RED GSX today at Target. Only one. I was at Wal-Mart earlier and found nothing. Both stores had very few HotWheels inventory. I found the yellow half-card GSX's a couple weeks ago at Wal-Mart. Anyone else seeing these?
I've seen the short cards. Thet are at the registers here at walmart. I haven't seen the red one yet. But i'm hitting the stores early tomorow!!:Brow:
you mean I gotta look for another one now? sigh.. wonder if they'll ever do a black with gold? or the blue.
Here's a special request I am looking for an Hot Wheels car from the movie SPEED RACER .... I looked many many times on Ebay last couple of months to find "MUSHA MOTORS" with mulit-language card , it have # M5927 Here's the rest of the series
WHERE did you find that strato blue/white GS!? Here the is Apollo White GSX in front of the blue/white 1:18 ERTL GS. Anybody have the '71 GSX from ERTL they want to part with (I really just need the grille and bumpers off the '71)?
I was told by the kids at Target the other evening that the empty Hot Wheels pegs won't get filled again until "Back to School" in a couple weeks. I bet the red ones will be a-plenty then. (I DID see it in a 10-pack too.)
