    I ran into a ToysRus today to check on GSX Hot Wheels and found a Green Light GL Muscle 1968 Buick GS350. It's red, black interior, black top, very good detail. It even comes with 4 extra wheels! The hood opens and the engine is detailed, too. A little pricey, tho, at $4.99. They also had a '70 442 W-30, red post car with white interior and stripes, but I passed on that.

    I'm about to give up on Hot Wheels as HW Buicks are hard to find, not very well detailed, and they keep recycling the GSX's with different colors and paint schemes, including those that weren't even offered (C'mon, orange? What's next, purple?). Johnny Lightning, Green Light, M2 Machines (with opening hood AND doors!) are all much more detailed, painted better, and are much more accurate, in my opinion, but, admittedly, don't have the variety of Hot Wheels and can run you more. I guess you get what you pay for.

    BTW, I don't know about everywhere else, but this ToysRus had all of their Hot Wheels marked up at $1.29 from .99! A sign of things to come? Can Target and Walmart be far behind?
