    I hope you guys don't think this is too off topic, but here's the cheap tip of the day for you Hot Wheels guys. Go to Walmart and look for something called a 3 tier bamboo cabinet organizer in the kitchen area. Makes a pretty nice Hot Wheels display for just over $5.00! ;)

    Predfan: is that a Maverick in the middle of the middle row? AND! You have the poison Pinto :cheers: That was my favorite one. My friend had a sloping driveway and we made a gravity drag strip using two super long strips of that plastic link together track. Used a stick to hold em' and when we took it away the race was on! Poison Pinto was one of my fastest due to how heavy it was. Class rules stated no BBs could be added to interiors of said vehicles due to the controversy of the 79 season wreak of the Monster mobile and subsequent spillage of said BBs. The cheater was yelled at and denied access to my yard for almost an entire day.

    The Poison Pinto was pretty fast but the weight advantage went to my Baja Breaker bitd. It was always the fastest.

    Btw here's how my T-Bolt turned out

    I haven't been on this thread in awhile, was the green Maverick the last one or was there really a purple one?

    Well I found out the answer to my own question,
    I picked up two at Food 4 Less today.
    So i'm assuming they're not only in Kmarts but in the Kroger Chain Stores as well.
    All I need is the Green and Red S.B ones now.... :bouncy:

    Most of the Mavericks are available in many different stores but only the lime green and white one is a K-Mart only deal :)

    I was just playing with my 2 Baja Breakers with my 2 year old last night. Got them when I was a kid. One of my favorites.(y)
