We have Flying J's up here too... there s one a few miles down the 401 from me. The MB Real Working Rigs I find hard to get ....they would have cost you what you paid for the lot when they were in the stores :thumbup:
Flying J went bankrupt a few years ago so Pilot bought them out but retain both stores

I has a RC Pilot tanker too ^_^

The Real Working Rigs are great finds! The Western Star wrecker seemed to be a hard one to get--never saw it here. People want triple (or more) what you paid for the whole lot for a carded Western Star wrecker.

Is the antique Maxwell (Matchbox copy) in the box plastic or one of those pencil sharpeners?

Interesting finds. I presume the Flintmobile is the recent release, not the old one? What model is the FatBaxx?

The 3-Window '34 is and has been one of my favourite HW castings for a long time - nice to see them every now and then, especially the earlier ones like that. An absolute classic!
