I think they just don't stay on the shelves long, kind of like the 69 Camaro police car. I never found one of those on the shelves despite many searches but plankowner scored me a couple from a store near him.

I have learned to be patient. You are right about the police camaro. It was hard to find when they were first released. I see them on a regular basis now. I am still looking for the Camaros. I'll get them in a few months once everyone gets sick of seeing them.


Cool find Jerry! :thumbsup:

Does this mean you have reverted back to not opening your cars? I seem to remember a time where, albeit with some convincing, you were opening your cars.... ;)

I live in South Dakota. I think we are a little behind in getting some of the cars in the stores here. I was out in D.C. recently and found the orange 1/64 camaro that I couldn't find anywhere. I was probably glowing as I walked out of that KB Toys. :thumbsup: I just found the Yellow 1/18 camaro at WM the other day. Wave 1 was like a year and a half ago.

Holy Cow. You got more rules than the IRS tax code.
What happens in the months that have 31 days? ;)

This is my very first Jada I have bought too. I really like them, just wish they were a little smaller. This one though just really caught my eye.
