I think the dark green is the current MBX GT3 color, at least that is the most recent one I've got, with the white and the red coming previously.

Have ya'll seen the crazy cool LEGO F1 transporter/two F1 cars?

Almost bought it but $80 was a little steep! No one around to build LEGOs anymore at my house....

They had a little $10 kit that was cute too, a section of fold out track and 2 cars.....
They're out there. I picked up almost all the Speed machines at the Meyerland Plaza Target in one day. It was a Saturday, so maybe that's when they usually get shipments?

This car was originally released in the Hot Wheels Designers Challenge Series. I see the latest all the time. Very different.

I posted that as a joke.

Apex sent me a PM the other day saying
"Don't laugh when you get it, I tend to go overkill on packaging"

Well I couldn't help it every layer I peeled back was followed by a chuckle. LOL


I took some unboxing photos.


Thanks allot Apex this will help my visualize much better than a picture.

I picked up 2 more V-Day Daytona's at Wally's, plus a Matchbox Audi R8. One of the Daytona's has a pretty beat up package so I'll probably open it.

Nice...look like re-boxed IXO. Hope the price is fair, since I will look for the 328.

I'm reeaallly new to 1/43'd collecting and had never heard of IXO. I just googled them and found some of the same cars there. They do look very similar so I think you're right. I got them for $10/each at TRU, so they were very worth it for me. I'll keep an eye out for another 328 for ya.

If you went to the SuperTarget in South Houtson off 288... I cleaned that one out Friday! My bad!

Found 3 of the 4 "speed machines" Ferraris there. Found the fourth at the walmart nearby.

Thank you; that cool stuff never makes it up here. IXO is a dangerous addiction.

My buddy lived in Alaska for a few years and was always complaining about things being shipped there. Either you can't, or it's extremely hard to get so I can understand your problem.
