I went to drop my son off with his Mom the other day before heading to work. She had not got off work yet when I got there. So, me and Jacob went in Goodwill in the same shopping center. He scored better than I did but his Iron Man action figure would not fit in the studio and the batcopter never leaves his site. I was able to find some sort of HWs dealership for .99 cents. I think its pretty cool but I think there is more room for potential. What do you guys think?![]() ![]() ![]()

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

I love it! But I was just plain thrilled to see them bring back Hot Wheels USA playsets a few years back. My original excitement on the subject can be seen here: http://swiftysgarage.net/topic/383852/1/ |

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

I don't see this "car dealer" type building in the new sets Swifty bought (via his link)

Your right! I didn't see it either. Now I am alittle curious as to what set this one was from. |

Paul, I'd buy a set just for that dealership. You can easily modernize it without having to build one from scratch. |

The release I posted about years ago was the original tooling from 1982 with some new colors and stickers (I'm amazed they held onto the tooling for 25 years without doing anything with it!). Everything that has come since has been new tooling, but made to snap into the originals. I haven't been keeping up with the newer releases as I was mostly interested in the originals, though I think I will get the car dealership if I see it. |
