If some of the cars are really difficult to find (which I imagine). I'll probably just break down and buy a case. I dont really want the Jeep (too damn big!), Charlies Angels Camaro, 350Z or the Skyline though.

That pic only shows 11 cars, I saw somewhere that the 12th was to be the 69 GTO driven by Frank Castle in 'The Punisher', can anyone confirm or deny this?
I hope,I hope,I hope.

Midtown's right, the GTO was indeed dropped in favor of a second Herbie.

What the hell kinda crap is that, how many damn Herbies do we need, I have nothin' against Herbie, but why two in the same series.
It's not even about the GTO, I'm annoyed about three 'Dukes' cars in the same series as well.
Oh well, whaddayaahgonnado?

Herbies blow off the shelves, they are in the same league as the Ecto. Pretty smart decision if you ask me. Supply and demand.
Dukes cars, I'm pretty psyched about the Road Runner and finally getting a decent General Lee casting! The Jeep isn't that thrilling.
Punisher, they simply couldn't get the licensing for it. Would of been a cool car though.

Herbie turned out to be much more popular than expected during his first release. Just flat out disappeared off the shelves. However, I would think just one in this release would suffice, perhaps with a second General Lee instead. I'd prefer the GTO myself instead of a duplicate, but I believe the licensing was lost. I'll dig up the thread.

We were all ready to pop the Punisher GTO, but there wasn't enough time to get licensing in place for it, so it had to be replaced at the last minute, and no time to work up any other TV or movie car. Mac and I made the call to replace it with an extra Herbie, simply because every time we've done Herbie, that li'l bug just jumps off the pegs into shopping carts that go by (I really think there must be a bottomless pit of demand for Herbie).
