We went to see some friends about an hour from here for a post turkey-day celebration...course I had to hit up the local House of Wal (WM). OMG did I hit a treasure trove!! :woohoo: They must have just restocked as I got all 3, 55th Anniversary cars plus a bunch of others MBs I've seen on HT but never in the wild. I also got the five-pack with the yellow Smart convertible that I've been drooling for.

I bought several CARS that I have not seen either.

It was an amazing score and I walked out of there spending almost $80 on die casts alone.

Yeah but Christmas is just around the corner so consider them an early present from Santa. Picked up the Bronco this weekend to complete the set myself.

Great finds. I can relate. Those are all irresistable. I've found all of those at WM except for the new Cars stuff. The new Volvo, R8 & Continental are amazing, and that 5-pack is excellent, too. I bought multiples of all of them! Be on the lookout for the all-exclusive 10-pack with the white Volvo & yellow Porsche. It's well worth the price.

You are so right - the new cars are amazing! I was so excited to find them. I was especially excited to find the 55th anniversary cars. The Bronco and Mini don't do a whole lot for me, but they are cool anyway. :D

The 10-pack with the white Volvo is well-worth the $10. I found it at Target awhile back.

My best friend is also a collector, and she found two 5-packs with the yellow Smart well before I found this pack. I haven't talked to her since I bought these, but she's gonna be so jealous... :p
