View Full Version : JL Guide by Mac Ragan: Missed Bug Bomb.
VWowner 04-17-2007, 11:38 AM I'm putting together the complete collection of the 94-95 topper commemoratives. I am using Macs JL guide as a reference to do this. I noticed an omission this morning from the book. This dark purple bug bomg from set A of the 4 car exclusive to Toy'sR Us set.

Here is the page from Macs book. Sorry for the size.
Lpgeoteacher 04-17-2007, 01:36 PM OK Thanks Ron now I see all the colors that I'm missing. (I can't afford this hobby..) LOL

Actually, thats why I'm doing this series. Most of these you can find for $2-3 each. Not like the Original toppers at $$$ each.
FLOYDFROG 04-17-2007, 04:20 PM Interesting. Thanks for the info. Got another one to find now :)

The question is WHERE CAN YOU FIND THEM? I'd pay $2-3 for each I could find. As of now I have the Red Mirror and the Zamac. (THANKS TO GERALD! :thumbsup: )
VWowner 04-18-2007, 07:34 AM I find them at toy shows. I just ordered a bunch from Rob's site. They will be at Kalamazoo. I purchased 8 at the show last week.
Lpgeoteacher 04-18-2007, 07:59 AM Wow I wish I was there we migh have had to have Ozmont pull us apart fighting over those!
Lpgeoteacher 04-18-2007, 02:24 PM Are the Bugs on Mac's site I can't find any!
CenterShock 04-19-2007, 10:44 AM I may have a couple Commerative Bugs you guys can fight over. :)
I will check and see what colors I have when I get a chance.
Lpgeoteacher 04-19-2007, 12:19 PM Ron didn't post so I guess I win! PM Comming!

Just checked. I have a butt ugly brown one (they call it chocolate I guess) Pretty low number too. 00987
I also have one slate blue one.
They are both yours teach!
I think I will keep my Q-car one though. If I part with it I will probably want to part with the whole set of Q-cars.

Lucky you I alreday have those :p ...
QCars Rule :thumbsup:
matchboxtom 04-19-2007, 06:42 PM I remember when these came out. My TRU would only sell full sets. In one set I got the white "A Bonus" one. All I thought is now I need to find the pink one from the set....
Don't forget the Seattle Toy Show Bug Bombs. Cool models for sure. I love the commemoratives and need to find a place to display them.
Pablodragon 04-19-2007, 09:04 PM hmmm... VW, are just getting the Bug Bombs? or putting together a collection of all the Commeratives?
wasn't clear in the top post, but it seems like what everyone is mentioning
...by the way I have the silver chrome 4 car Toys R Us box set, if yer interested

I'm doing the entire 1994-1995 Commemoratives collection. They will all be opened and dsiplayed on the wall in the clear cases from Carney. I will put all the cars in the same order as they are in Mac's book. A total of 231 cars.
Ooops...232 including this missing Bug Bomb.....

I did not realize you were working on a complete set. I will let you know what I have and maybe you can fill some holes in.
Lpgeoteacher 04-20-2007, 07:25 AM Ron's doing all of the cars, I'm collecting just the Bug Bombs. (Ron has a lot more money than me. He dosn't have to send his cats to college)
VWowner 04-23-2007, 05:12 PM I was hoping Mac Ragan would comment on this thread but alas he must not be cruising the boards as often as he once did.
Lpgeoteacher 04-23-2007, 08:31 PM Sometimes I think its just me and you Ron.
VWowner 04-24-2007, 03:26 PM Sometimes I think its just me and you Ron.
Ads to the post count...:( :p .
I'm excited about getting to Kazoo to pick up some more New toppers. It was after the last show in November that I decided to do this. The display should look pretty good when done.

Thanks Nick. pm your e-mail address.
Wyatt 05-02-2007, 10:34 AM After my next purchase, I will only be missing two or three as well, not counting the Toy Fair and Logo cars.
I think Mac's book also has an error on the colors of the T.N.T. Once I get them all, I will go through and make any corrections to JLCollector.com.
VWowner 05-04-2007, 11:18 AM Thanks Wyatt. What colors do you think ar in error?.
Lpgeoteacher 05-04-2007, 03:21 PM Just got mine new Bugbombs from Nick they are too cool! The Brown is #00987! Wow I've never saw a car under 1,000 before!
Wyatt 05-04-2007, 04:49 PM Thanks Wyatt. What colors do you think ar in error?.
Not sure right now, but I think a couple of TNTs and Spoilers are swapped. I haven't had a chance to check others yet. I have to determine what I'm missing after my next purchase comes in, too.
