New casting?? Quick! Take it apart!

Talk about nice luck-----on my LONG drive home Thanksgiving eve, and stopped at TRU for my weekly hunt. Here's a place that takes ages for new cars, any brand, and the pegs were filled with the 2010 MATCHBOX blisters and many new colors!!! I love ANY new scheme for cop cars..... The Evora red looks great! Purple metallic is odd for the K-Ghia, but it is nice anyway! The Mini-van blue is perfect for a quickie custom for you village and city builders....just wipe the few graphics off with acetone and put on you own local decos! As prviously posted by SSCHEVYMAN, there's the Vistacruiser with the spoked wheels, but they went back to the anti-freeze color from the first issue! I don't think I ever remember Mattel ever doing a revamp color of a first issue, then going back to the first issue color in a LATER release (??), and especially on a new BP card. What a nice holiday treat. Have a nice holiday, and good hunting!

No matter what wheels are on the Vista, they're TOO BLEEPING BIG! |

I'm sure you have some cosmic rationale... but here you are, in the ninth, two men out and three men on... nowhere to look, but inside, where we all respond to PRESSURE!!! | |

I can't think of a better model of automobile as a potential garden planter than a Renault 8 or a Dauphine. |

Micro Czar

It seems to be that the recolor Vista is more a true 70s color than the original, not quite as bright, but just as ugly. Which I think is cool
