I was in three different Walmarts and Toys R Us in Calgary today and nobody had anything.... o No: :ball:
AWESOME!!! Friend found and bought the 2 at a local Walmart, so I have a couple now. They are so cute!! Special thanks to 68 Skylark Cust who was going to sell me one until we found out what shipping would be...:shock:
I found 4 of the white GSX's at my local grocery store, along with 3 silver '69 SS396 Chevelles, and 3 silver '64 Corvette Grand Sports. Come to find out, they have Hot Wheels in different locations throughout the store. I must have left another 6-10 there of EACH. However, I have not been able to find any yellow ones. Maybe they came out first and sold out? If you are looking for something really hot, find yourself a Welly 1:26 GSX. I've got 2 of these in white and the detail is hands down the best of any of the diecast models I've seen, including Hot Wheels, Ertl, American Musclecar, Johnny Lightning, etc. Puts them all to shame. Chrome valve covers, white washer bottle (!), gold p/b booster, detailed dash, 4 spd with consolette, plastic taillights, accurate front end, very sharp.
Yellow did come and go, why its white now, though ya may find some still, hope red is next, then maybe a custom jobber I hope is not butchered by Foose HE division
A few years back back hot wheels had their 100% collector series 71 GSX, that thing has very impressive detail for a 1/64th model, really impressive. Only came in red and yellow AFAIK....white would be perfect and I still hope they make more eventually.
Thanx Tim , I still cannot believe there is no other way to ship at better price within Canada I do found 2 more yellow this week-end and passed on 2 white and I gave 1 white to my 6yo son , now i have 5 white & 3 yellow :laugh:
Do you have is email adress? Perhaps he can paint one so it will look like my own car! That would be a nice birthday present! Greetz Robert
Checked at walmart last night.... just walking past the Hotwheels display I saw a yellow and a white out front. I have 3 of each color + 1 yellow thats opened to "play with" :TU:
At last I HAVE A YELLOW GSX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you Ken:beer Its awesome thanks buddy.
You know, the lady at the post office must have misunderstood the rates or something....I just got a few more from the US, and it only cost 4.00US actual shipping from there so how could it be three times as much from one side of the country to the other unless the box you used was HUGE!!!LOL o No: Guy was having a sale on Ebay, so even with shipping the price delivered to my door international was almost the same as actually buying here. Weird. I'm done now, will leave a few out there for real kids!!! :laugh:
I take it in a "bubble" envelope in his original package o No: I bought some from US (ebay) loose and it's also near 4$ for shipping . Maybe the lady tried to get me :laugh: Here's my newest one , a Johnny Lightning' 70 GS §tage1 4 speed that came loose in an envelope from Honk Kong for 7cn$ shipped ! I really like your picture , a really cool father/son reunion ! :TU: edit : I tought you wanted it unopened ? That would have been like a letter ($$) if I had it loose in the env. but anyway it was a happy ending as you found one locally .
Right now our walmart has white GSX's I picked up both the white and yellow GSX's couple of each. I also have the black and Gold/black GN's I also have the blue JL 70 GS, the Red 71 GS collector edition, and a JL 70 GSX( that my best friend sent me for Xmas, and he is an Olds nut) Plus I have both the yellow 70 GSX and the Black 71 GSX in 1/18. Gotta love collecting Buicks. Tim
