View Full Version : I Left TRU In Shock......
Acererak 09-02-2008, 08:58 PM Went to my local TRU after reading about the TRU Only Black Bandit Corvette Editions. Thought maybe I'd score a set for myself, and possibly one for a buddy of mine. Not only did I get us each a set, but I also scored this beauty. My first # 01. That's why I am in shock.

:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:
Now do I entertain offers or should I keep it?
LILCOZ2048 09-02-2008, 08:59 PM Congrats Thats a Great Car.. And NUMBER 01 Keep it.. Man that might never happen again a greenie and Number 01 at a Toys R Us.. Never would happen here in the Chicago Area.
mattywhelz 09-02-2008, 09:48 PM How can I say this calmly...hummm.....
KEEP IT!!!!!
:woohoo:
I mean come on, your're a Vette collector...you have a "holy grail' piece there. You get rid of it...sure you maybe able to replace it if you later regret that decision...but you'll never ever get a #1 of that casting again.

robertwadehall 09-02-2008, 10:58 PM Cool...I like the Black Bandits..but the green wheels and chassis look a bit lame, I'd paint them black also.. :)
CTWLSMIKE 09-02-2008, 11:43 PM John, that is an awesome score. If I were you, I'd want to keep it, but I think if I got an offer I couldn't refuse, I'd have to consider it.
macnut 09-02-2008, 11:55 PM KEEP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the great find. :woohoo::woohoo:
STUTZ 09-03-2008, 03:08 AM AWESOME GM score John!:thumbsup:
Do you find that on your way to the diecast meet yesterday?
I'd keep it.
STUTZ 09-03-2008, 03:10 AM I forgot to ask if you are bringing that to the October meet and showing it as one of you favorite diecast cars.
plankowner 09-03-2008, 08:54 AM It's a keeper for sure! Nice score!
DCPDGUY 09-03-2008, 10:22 AM Keep it. I have a #1 as well and even though it is something I don't really collect it was bought off the pegs so it will stay with me for a long time.
FLOYDFROG 09-03-2008, 04:46 PM Great find John. I'd certainly keep # 01. That's a pretty special car:thumbsup:
96gsfan 09-03-2008, 08:40 PM Great find. I am just hoping the regulars hit our TRU. I would agree with everyone else, KEEP IT! (unless of course you want to send it to me....:devil:)
Acererak 09-03-2008, 09:03 PM It got explained to me in way I didn't think of last night, bottom line car is definitely a keeper. TY fellas for the words.
chevy263 09-04-2008, 12:17 AM Vettes Rock I'd have a really hard time parting with that. Congrats on a GREAT one!
Croz222 09-04-2008, 02:48 PM Cool...I like the Black Bandits..but the green wheels and chassis look a bit lame, I'd paint them black also.. :)
please tell me you are kidding and not that you have no idea what a GreenMachine is yet are posting in the GreenMachine forum.:freak:
The Wheelman 09-05-2008, 02:22 PM Keep it! You are a very lucky guy!
I'd be happy just finding the regular BBs around here, much less a Green Machine.
davidj 09-05-2008, 06:49 PM Think about how many number 1's surface. Very rarely do you see or hear of it. I see numbered regulars and never see a #1. All the brand X RLC cars - never had a #1. The odds are just against it. Don't buy a lttery toicket - youve used up all the luck! You better keep that one dude!
i say KEEP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cletuss 09-08-2008, 04:07 PM Very, very cool, congrads Ace.
