midtown 05-19-2006, 04:19 PM How do they stack up against the RC Pacer and JL Gremmy?

jl4steve 05-19-2006, 06:38 PM Went to a few Walmarts this week and saw only the old stock. Checked ePay and looks like only one place got the Gremlin and Pacer (BIN price is $6.95!)
DadsCoronet 05-19-2006, 09:12 PM Only seen the 1/64 Pacer and Gremlin on the bay, too. The Cherries don't last long on the pegs...
Wyatt 05-19-2006, 09:38 PM Got them on my WalMart pegs and looks like no one has touched them.
cwescapexlt4x4 05-26-2006, 03:01 PM Have seen them and some traffic from the pegs here..
carnut2256 05-26-2006, 04:00 PM I'm looking for the Gremlins and Pacers (in all colors) if anyone wants to work something out.
Dave Weber 05-27-2006, 12:13 AM A Diecast store I have been dealing with for over the last 15 years ordered these models at my request and they arrived on Thurs. All 5 models were received - although the colors are limited in availability. Gremlin is orange and
the Pacer is blue only! Selling at $2.50 each to cover factory shipping etc. But W-M ones cost $2.10 including PA State tax and I still have not seen any in the Phila Suburban area! If interested
Contact www.kiddiekar.com Kiddie Kar Kollectibles is located 1161 Perry St Reading PA 19604 215-375-4780 Hours on Sats 10-3 and Weds to Fri usually 11- 3 or so. They will be at the York PA Toy Show this Sun!
JP2-NC-JL-CRAZY 05-27-2006, 01:07 AM I picked up 2 Pacers, orange and yellow, and 2 Gremlins, green and red, at WM the other day.

Got the messages, just didn't get to write back yet. Let me know what you're looking for, for the AMC's (trade, cash, what have you). Thanks a bunch! :thumbsup:

carnut2256 06-04-2006, 04:18 AM Found the Gremlins and Pacers in two stores today (Sat) one in Mass. and the other in R.I.
jlambsr 06-06-2006, 06:59 PM Rich e-mail me sometime, I'll need your address to ship the cars...
carnut2256 06-07-2006, 11:46 PM The AMC's have shown up in RI at a couple of stores.
ParkRNDL 06-14-2006, 10:43 PM We kinda got to plucking each other's nerves earlier today, and when my wife left for work (she teaches evening classes) we were barely speaking. She called after class to let me know she was picking up some grocery stuff at Wally's on the way home. Then she calls from the diecast aisle to ask what were the Cherry cars I've been looking for, and she tells me that they have the Gremlin and Pacer and what colors do I want. So there's a green Gremlin and a red Pacer on their way home to me... :D
yay! :roll:

goodguy2006 07-02-2006, 06:48 PM I just picked up a manufacturing blooper today.The car is a 1977 Mustang II,however the pedestal the car is sitting on says "1974 AMC Gremlin".So they obviously assembled this package incorrectly.Hopefully its a one of a kind....maybe someday it will be worth a boodle....
scrambler81 08-08-2006, 02:17 PM So, how long has it been since this whole Fresh Cherries thing started? I just found the Gremlin and Pacer at WalMart, when I went out for lunch. I think I found the Fords about 6 months ago. :rolleyes:
Here are the examples that I purchased for my collection:

Atencio 08-09-2006, 01:06 AM I checked my WM every so often and never saw any of the gremlims and Pacers. Seems like the Mavericks and Mustangs eventually became peg warmers
HWJOE 08-10-2006, 09:20 AM I finally found all 3 colors of the Gremlin and PAcer this past weekend.
It has been so dry in NJ and then POP all of a sudden the stores have them.
midtown 08-10-2006, 09:42 AM ive never even had a GF period .
Doubt you will find one on Hobbytalk. Unless you like 40+ year old men.
DiecastLive.Com 08-10-2006, 12:32 PM Got them on my WalMart pegs and looks like no one has touched them.
Same here if anyone needs anything let me know.
TheBoogieman 08-11-2006, 02:42 PM I found one of each.. i didnt realize till i opened it, But my Gremlins little base packageing thing (the cardboard under it that says the name) says "1970 ford Maverick"..... So the poor little Gremlin doesnt get a real base to sit on, on my shelve.Oh well, it can sit and keep my JL gremlin company.
goodguy2006 08-12-2006, 06:46 PM So it sounds like that company is making a number of mistakes.Keep posting mispackaged cars......we're up to 2 already....
carnut2256 08-15-2006, 12:31 AM Doubt you will find one on Hobbytalk. Unless you like 40+ year old men.
:lol: :drunk: :thumbsup:
DadsCoronet 08-21-2006, 02:23 PM Stopped into WM this morning on my way to work and FINALLY got the green Pacer and blue Gremlin. Looking at the pegs, they were the only ones in that color that were left. Jeesh! took long enough! :rolleyes:

AQUA XK8 08-24-2006, 09:01 AM Stopped into WM this morning on my way to work and FINALLY got the green Pacer and blue Gremlin. Jeesh! took long enough! :rolleyes:
These green and blues, it seems, have appeared at several WM in the New England area in the past 2 weeks. I've seen several in my travels around the Northeast lately.
harry_ca 08-24-2006, 07:33 PM These just showed up at my Wmart....I counted 19 cars I think
4 gremlins -blue, 2 greens, red
4 pintos - 2 yellow, 1 red, 1 green (i think)
3 pacers - 1 green, 1 red, 1 blue (i think)
4 mavericks - 1 yellow, i forget the rest
2 mustang IIs - black and brown i think
I inspected them for quite awhile, but i dunno, the quality just looked a little off. even for $1.92.
I left them all for someone else....now if only we'd get that many JLs on the pegs I'd be in heaven.
AQUA XK8 08-24-2006, 08:06 PM I agree, I paused too because the quality wasn't up to my standards either. But I bought them anyway, just to have them, with the rationalization that I'd probably give them to some kids in the future.
stanmmx 12-27-2006, 03:33 AM Dear All:
Up to now,I did not found neither the Gremlin or Pacer.Or the Chevys or Thunderbird.
