Hot Wheels Gold 7 Spokes

I didn't realize that gold 7 spoke wheels were a rarity on Hot Wheels. I think there have only been about 20 models made according to SouthTexasdiecast.com. Here is my meagre collection from 1995 and 1996.

Hot Wheels Racing Schoolbus

These Hot Wheels Racing busses appeared on the pegs for only a brief time. I was luck enough to snag these two before they all disappeared from the stores, back in 2000.

35th Anniversary Redlines

A pair of Silhouettes and a Beatnik Bandit.

Pink Nomad.

Pink Red Baron.

Pink Beatnik Bandit.

Pink Paddy Wagon.

Here are some Vintage and Anniversary Series Hot Wheels. Obviously not the real thing but they still bring back the look and feel of the original cars. I'm happy to have them in my collection, especially the pink ones, LOL. How many pink Hot Wheels do you have?

Storage no Plano cases for me

I sometimes remove my diecast from their card/blisters and store them in 48 car cases, which i purchased from Walmart. No longer in stock, i decided to contact the makers of the cases at planomolding.com. Although the cases themselves are reasonably priced, the shipping via UPS (and brokerage costs) will be too much. Here is the response from planomolding's customer support:

Pertaining to your inquiry regarding one of our JAMMER products, the 5315. Although not featured on our website it is still a current product and can be ordered directly through our credit card department. Through this service the 5315 would be priced at $4.00 per piece plus the cost of UPS shipping. We do not send our credit card orders out via the postal system.

The most economical way to ship this item would be in full cartons which would consist of 6 pieces. The UPS charges would be $19.10. This UPS cost does not include any additional duties, taxes, etc. that might incur.
