Yeah, I want one of those. Seems weird to me that I am finding more new Matchbox cars/castings than HW this year.....of course, considering I concentrate on the "Rescue" series, I still go through all the HW pegs and more often recently thru the bods/dump bins. But I'm not finding this Datsun....and that's probably what makes me want it so much! It'll show up sometime, I'm sure. Along with the zamac 60s TV Batmobile (whatever the "assigned" name is), and the Ghost Busters-carded Ecto-1......some day......sigh.....so many, many Hot Wheels, so little of the ones I want..... |

Agreed. I keep lobbying for a Prince Skyline Sport; it's kinda like the Skyline GT-R's granddaddy. Prince Skyline Sport

I found a bin with several of these at a Walmart last week.....so I 'finally' got one for myself. Must've found it just a day or two after I said I hadn't seen any yet.....I don't 'collect' race/rally cars or those 'busy' racing liveries, so this one came home just because it's a Japanese car. Okay.....it also looks good enough to add to my collection, regardless of 'country of origin'. I see SSChevyman's example had a bad tampo strike......on that side (the passenger side....). Does that make it an "error"? Edited by b2young, Dec 29 2016, 10:16 AM.

Nah, that's normal. But if you find a perfect one you may consider it an error! LOL... JK!

![]() ![]() Now showing up in Canada. I was worried that this might get hoarded and would be rare, but Walmart's dump bin was full of them along with the Jetson's car. Edited by harry, Jan 8 2017, 07:22 PM.

I haven't seen the Fairlady nor the Odyssey van at Wal-mart yet but they did show up at Toys 'R' Us before Christmas. |

Not my favorite rendition of this car, but still happy to see it. Just need to get my hands on one now. |

I grabbed a few extras, so if you start seeing later cases and decide the boat's been missed I can help. |
