Nice looking Johnnys you got there. I love that GTO but I can't seem to find anywhere. I just have to keep looking.

WTG George! Good score! I don't know which one I like better. It is a toss up between the WL Chevelle and the M2 Drivers '69 Pontiac GTO. I know the GTO is not a chase car but that does not take away the appeal of it.

Paul, I did also pick up a dupe of that silver GTO. You don't see many Pontiacs anymore in the stores, so I had to get it. George

I also got these at Wal Mart the other day. This one is real cool, it even has rust on it. ;D This one I wasn't sure if it was a White Lightning, it's not. George

Great looking cars George! I also picked up the Monte Carlo and the 300 C. I wasn't sure if the 300c was a white or not. Sometimes Johnny lightning likes throw out curve balls.

That Monte ss aero is bad ass looking, I need to find one of those. I also pick up some of the namebrand one with hooker headers and bfg and stuff.

Yesterday, I spent the whole day unloading the big box truck, and digging out quite a few missized boxes of my diecast. I now have the whole side of the 20th TTA filled about 6 foot high with different sized boxes of diecast. Everything is just stacked in them haphazardly. I opened up a few boxes, and put the diecast all over the place, trying to organize them. My God, I forgot just how much I have. I think I'll have to go to Wal Mart and buy a ton of memory cards for the digital camera. I even forgot what car I had bought. I am finding Treasure Hunts, and White Lightnings. ;D And here I thought I just had 35 Hot Wheels boxes, each with 72 cars in them. I found a bunch of Office Boxes filled with Hot Wheels. I wonder if the Dodge dealership would take 30,000 diecast cars, for an even trade for a SRT8 Challenger? ;D George

Today, I was able to pick up a Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt. It's a super Chevroletor. Lisa was able to find a Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt as well. Yep, she's my competition. ;D She grabbed a regular Chevy Caramo Concept. I'll have to work on getting photos up to show you all. Lisa is kind of mad at me right now. See, yesterday was a pitstop at the local Dodge dealership, of the Mopar Madness caravans to Las Vegas for this weekend's big Mopar show. I went, had a great time hanging out with the Mopar guys/gals, and took over 150 photos of these great cars. Seems it was alot for Lisa to upload. I'll post those if and when they ever get done. George

Great score George! Did you find those in the side kick shippers. If you didn't they most of have taken them out the shippers and put them on the pegs. The shipper contained cars with BFGoodwrench tires, one Ghostbusters car and about four or five blue '69 Pontiac Firebirds. Lets just say I know. I went thru 11 of them but did not find a Super and the only three of them I was able to go thru before any one else I found three reg Hunt Camaros.

All were found on pegs. I never see any side kickers at all. I was able to get a few more great cars over the weekend. I was gone since Friday, hung out in Laughlin, Nevada, and even went to the Rodeo for a couple of days. Saw some great riding, including the intermission with Motorcross riders doing jumps, including flips! Since I grew up riding dirt bikes, I must say, that was the best Rodeo I've been to! ;D I even won some money, playing one arm bandits. ;D I have to take some photos of my new diecast, to post up. Since we were gone, Lisa hasn't even been able to upload any of the Mopar photos. I hope to have them up by the coming weekend. George

My local Wal Mart has been dead for the last couple of weeks. Maybe a lone Firebird Hot Wheels or so, but nothing new has shown up yet. No Johnny Lightnings for quite awhile. But for some reason, there was a 1/64th scale Dubs Milk Truck on the pegs, which I had already gone thru the day before. Must have been found hidden, then put back up. I grabbed it, but it's listed as a 2007 release. Go figure. So now I have a dupe. George

Nothing to report at Wal Mart. But I did score a Treasure Hunt (Ratbomb) and another Ecto Hot Wheels. I also got two of the new Pontiac Grand Prixs. ;D George
