Group buy for 1:24 Mavs' and Comets (fingers crossed)!!

Hey all,

I know it's been a while since I have had an update on the Fresh Cherries line and now, with the issue of the 1:24 scale Mavs' and Comets. I knew that Walmart over-ordered the Pintos' and Gremlins' and the guy I talk to at MotorMax agrees.
So... The following e-mail was receivied just today...
(I'll let you all know if and when I hear back from them on how to order and just what to expect in each case as well as cost.)

Hi Jason,​

Yes, you're right, it is going to be very hard to find the Maverick and Comet in the Wal-Mart Stores although it is released. As most of the Wal-Mart Stores had over ordered on the Pintos and Gremlin release, so it will take some time for them to clean out, and their re-orders will include the Maverick/Comets.​

I can of course help you guys to get some of these shipped. I think last time you guys placed your orders to Yu at Die Cast online. I have copied Yu on this email to hook you guys up.​

Yu, please let Jason know how you can handle this order.​

I'm in for case of each or so.... I'd be willing to front a couple of cases of each and resell at cost plus shipping indiv pieces as I know everyone doesn't want or cant afford a case... let me know private email...

 

I wouldn't mind a couple...one in each color offered, and 2 yellow ones so I can give it a paint job to match my car.

 

I have made an initial order for 8 - units 4 maverick and 4 comets in each color tonght @$10 each. Will keep you posted.

 

Let's hope for the best - I would be in for 1 of each color Maverick if they become available.

 

I'm in for one of each color....let me know.

 

Just got confirmation, to be shipped in AM from Calif..these are not from YU, from another person. Let me see how these do, then I will place a good size order.

 

i'd go for at least one of each also.

 

need the unpainted ones....my walmart has 6 or so of the pinto's and gremlins.

if anyone wants to hook me up with some leftovers from their case let me know. thanks.

 

i am in...i would 2 of each......

 

Let me know the details when you can, I definitely want to purchase some, and I'm tired of the hit and miss Wal-Mart runs...

You can get a set of 4 Mavericks here:

...and 4 Comets here:

http://www.collectablediecast.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=3859

It's $35.99 for each set of 4. I've ordered a set of each.

 

This looks like a good way to go... I did not realize that they were already available and in sets of Mavs' or Comets only in all colors no less. The price seems quite fair as well. I'm still going to wait and see what Yu at Diecast online offers for a group purchase but I have a feeling it won't be much better than this...
