So I get home today and what do I find in my mail box? My new NEO Classic Hotwheels 71 Maverick Grabber. Here are a few pics of it. What I found interesting is the fact that it is licensed by Ford.
"For the adult collector" so I guess your not supposed to take the out of the package and make v8 and burnout noises while you push the around making them get squirrelly (I still do this)
Yea I guess at $16 a pop I will not be doing any running them out of the bubble pack. Just another one I could not do without.
The Hot Wheels Neo- Classics 71 Maverick Grabber is still available for about $15 plus shipping from Hot Wheels. Visit hotwheelscollectors.com. I believe it's still the only Hot Wheels Maverick that has an opening hood. Just got mine.
Checked the Hot wheels website and they they no longer show the Neo-Classics Maverick. Not sure if that's the end of the run. Anyone know?
Yup, no longer available according to the product page. http://www.hotwheelscollectors.com/neo-classics-71-maverick-grabber-x0537/FANFAVS-PDP I'm guessing that what they had left was taken during the last round of Rewards orders. I'm a bit surprised they didn't sell out of them a long time ago, it was one of the last of the hand-polished and chrome plated HWC cars.
