Sumo Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I got the idea from that other forum. It's actually two packages, i just put it on top of each other. I got it at Wal Mart for .97 cents a piece. You can shop at Wal Mart now because they will now allow the word "Christmas" instead of Seasons Greetings in the music they play and when they greet you. hahaha! Just a joke i don't wanna make it political. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I called my wife on her cell...and what do you know she was inside Walmart. She bought two as well; one for me and one for my daughter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 280ZForce Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 OK, I have a Wal-Mart about 1.5 miles from the house. I think I'll be making a trip there later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumo Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 I was actually looking to see if they still had the 240Z model but they had none. So i was checking out this little superbird and didn't even notice the 240Z, i only caught a glimpse of the word "Datsun" on the side then i realized it was a Hotwheel Z. By the way if your in DFW i bought this at the Valley Ranch location not the one on 183. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewievette Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 My camera has been MIA for a few months now so, no pics. I just took a fine point red sharpie and did the tail lights and with the black I did the grill, hood vents, and rear tail light surround and that was it. I'm going to buy another one to take apart and repaint, should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sven Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Thanks Sumo! Damnit, I just bought 20 Hot Wheels cars. They were, uh, for my nephew... Okay, maybe some of them. I made sure to get an extra Z so he can have one like mine. He ought to like that. My friend Troy's kid was our car-guy experiment. We screened his Hotwheels and Match box cars. We only got him cool cars. -Old musclecars, classics, sports cars, and the really neat bizarro custom Hotwheels. No mini-vans, Nascar, or cheesed out pimp or ricey rides. Our goal was to make him appreciate cool cars early on. By the age of three he was an expert. I used to test him, "Trent, pass me that car, the white Porsche". He didn't miss, "No silly, that's a Charger." He can line 'em up and tell you what they all are, and even has his own taste in cars. Mission accomplished. Cool kid, wish I had friends like him when I was young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewievette Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I keep getting more of these! Everytime I spot one I pick it up, its horrible! My work table looks like a used car lot! So far I have one in the original colors, a bare polished metal one, and a black one, next is red, then blue, and I'm not sure after that. My friend dared me to get out the silver solder and sculpt a G nose for one! I dont know about that, maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumo Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 I guess they do come out with custom ones except the pink one is described as "inserted into a single blister" http://cgi.ebay.com/Hot-Wheels-Datsun-240-Z-Budweiser-Beer-Custom_W0QQitemZ180050464205QQihZ008QQcategoryZ45352QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Here is one SuperDan will like.

Mikelly Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Wow... I saw a couple of those pink cars... Looks the same general color of "pink"... And I wondered then why the hell they'd paint it THAT color... And to go thru the trouble of actually buying one, and PAINTING it that color, only to repackage it and sell it on ebay!
