    Stuff has generally been moving off of Walmart shelves here, with the exception of the character cars and the Batman set ( which they stocked far too many of them in the first place. )

    I’ve been on a roll, hitting the latest entertainment set at Target and getting the 962c, but this weekend finding the Euro Fast is nice.

    Since Herschel Supply launched 10 years ago, we've taken a lot of road trips — and the Landrover Defender 90 has been with us for most of them.⁠

    When we went to design our first partnership collection with Hot Wheels, we couldn't think of a better vehicle to work with than the one that's helped us find adventure from BC to Hawaii.⁠

    To celebrate a decade of road trips, we're proud to announce Hot Wheels and Land Rover for Herschel Supply, dropping December 2, 2020 at 9AM PST.

    Probably the same reason the Ferrari P4 shelf warmed when it was introduced. It's not "cool" looking like modern Ferrari/Porsche/Lambo are. Eh more for me I say. Bought the P4 when it came out and I have zero regrets, it's still a nice sleek design.

    Ok, I found the turtles van on a blue card like seen above but it doesnt have the movable door or gun as far as I can tell. So the one with the door and gun that is shown on the last page is that an exclusive or where did it come from?

    I'm thinking that should be the retro version that normally costs like $5 in stores.

    Anyone collect (or try to collect) the Disney, Marvel or Star Wars character cars? Found a set of repaints for Falcon & Winter Soldier and Black Widow that contained new castings for Task Master and Kamala Khan at a Walmart last week after finding Disney series 7 before that (without having ever seen or been aware of the series 6 on cross-sell). I like the effort put into these but the advertisement & distribution are terrible and I don’t think anyone has a checklist of what’s been released. New releases just randomly show up - sometimes with repaints and re-releases of cars I’ve never seen before.

    Some recent finds.
    Really like the Venom artwork and the subtle decos on the cars.

    This may be the nicest little diecast car in my entire collection.

    Too bad it’s not a Porsche or Audi but it’s not a shabby model itself at all.

    Scored some 2021s today: Luke’s landspeeder, tooned Twin Mill, Barbie’s camper, Dodge van (with a clear roof) and the Nash. Turtles’ party wagon is back without the 2020 logo - never saw it in its model year so I grabbed one (there were 10 that I saw). There were some other new models that were easy passes. Almost grabbed the triumph tr6, corvette grand sport and a 69 Camaro for Rihio pilots.
