[ehastings]

get there early for a case, i know i will be real early

 

[Mecal]

how early?

and what do you mean for a case?
-they open it with you there
-you buy it
-you get it for free! (i wish)

 

[ehastings]

NO you open them and pick out what you want, thats what i mean about you get a case to open, the kmart where i live open @ 8:00am and the hotwheel event starts @ 9:00

 

[Mecal]

OHHH, awsome!

Ill probably get there right at 9, or a little before.

do they give everyone a case to open (ive never done this before :drunk: )

Does every Kmart do this? I know of a Kmart that doesn't seem to be very busy most of the time. Would that change things?

 

[Pablodragon]

from my experience, some K Marts do, some don't (participate, that is...)

..the ones that do, they usually line everbody up, then each person is given a case to open and take what u want... if there are only a few people (not likely, but depends where u live...) then u might get to open 2 or more cuz they usually have like at least 10 to 20 cases, no?... and these cases are have NOT been opened... unless u have a really bad store, but have never heard of anyone reporting already opened cases...

hey porsche,are you talking about the kmart by meijer? thats the one i think is the best chance. never many customers there and i know they participated the last time but i got there late.had to work,so i didnt get there till 11:30. but they still had some cool stuff.

According to Mattel, every Kmart is supposed to participate in this collectors day. Whether they do or not I guess is a moot point. If you want do a search on Ebay for tooned Camaro, and or Mad propz and you will see that some of the "special" cars are already there. There have been reports on another board of the special cars being found at flea markets already as well. As for how the store handles it, I have seen different things described but it does seem to wary accordong to how many people were there at the time. I will be making about a 4 hour trip to go to one. This is the first one that I will be attending so it will be interesting to see what is going on.

the "special" cars

Which ones are "special?"


If you're talking about the Madd Propz, I saw that at the flea market today. I actually put up a post about it before I read this thread.

The special cars are the following: Mad propz will be blue; CUl8R will be black; Tooned Camaro will be white with orange stripes; '63 TBird will be Silver; Off Track will be Orange and the Sir Ominous will be dark red. Personally I like the CUL8R variation better than the original and the blue Mad propz is sweet. I just got the propz regular version yesterday X2 and opened one and my son has not left it alone since. It is cooler than I thought it would be and is proving to have some play value in it for the kids. Mattel did manage to score with this one.

No, I was thinking of another one closer to me. I dunno if you saw it, but it was the one where I posted that someone was shot at. I just remembered that, so maybe I'll skip that one...:lol:

But that one near meijer is usually pretty vacant too. Although the few times I've been there they seem to have a nice selection of HW's, but forget about JL's. I haven't been there in a loooong time.

 

[D-68pontiac]

i went to that kmart youre talking about a day before that shooting.

 

[Mecal]

these "special" ones. will they be in different boxes, or just a different variation?

also, they are a K-Mart Only Variation?

These cars are going to be available in the cases specially porduced for Kmart for this event. They are supposed to be a Kmart only variation. Apparently the chance of these cars getting mixed into the regular mainline cases in nonexistant as they were supposed to have been produced in a different plant. Can't wait to see what is available at the one that I am going to.

Sorry I guess it was the helpful Canadian coming out of me. I don't believe they are in your area so I am not sure what difference it makes.
