Just thought I'd let you guys know....

Toys-R-Us has the "Exclusive Editions" 7-Pack on sale for $7.99. Picked one up today and took the Yellow Teener and the Chevy PickUp out.I'll give the rest to my Best-Friends little boy.

No, I came to Arkansas to get seats, the Lesneys were a bonus. I did give one away before I left the state.

What kind of a deal you want to make? One for one? or...? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I like the green one you have. I have an orange one. I have never even seen a Lesney Edition car here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Mark

**EDIT - I do not have an extra from the mustard yellow 10 pack either. Whoops. I do have Lenseys adn Orange ones, though.

Hi Jamie,

What scale are these. I think I have this Kyosho set already but not sure.

They are the same size as the Matchbox cars, not sure of the exact scale...I think its 1:64, again the same size as Matchbox but the quality is so much better...they were made in limited numbers and came in 3 colors (red, green and yellow)....yellow is the hardest to find and each car usually sells on ebay for 15 dollars each (each, not a set)...I have one complete set I would trade and was hoping to get 3 Lesney cars and 3 orange cars unopened in the original packages and if possible a loose yellow car but may be pushing my luck. This is the only set I have to trade and haven't seen others here locally for a while but I also have a loose green one I can trade too if somebody doesn't need a complete set...

Jamie,

I have some Lesneys you can have but I still only have one orange car. I do have a loose yellow one also. However, I already have the Kyosho set thanks to a buddy in Japan that sent it to me. If I can ever find some orange ones I will hook you up.

Your right, I compared the one of each and my cars are slightly smaller...so I am guessing but maybe 1:72 scale perhaps..still the quality is much better than the matchbox cars. Glad you liked that set, they are kind of hard to find now in Japan as most of them seem to have been exported...I am keeping one set of unopened ones for myself and a pair of opened ones that my Daughter opened herself for my collection and will trade the last set...I can't seem to find anymore of the yellow ones and also have a loose but brand new unopened green one for Rick too if you need it

I have several Orange if you don't get any takers. I will give you 2 orange for each Lesney.

EDIT: Wait - I might have just on someone else here - standing by - sorry

Let me know what kind of a deal your looking for on that loose green one. I have one orange 6 and a second run Ravenna car I can throw in. It is darker that the first run cars. Probably not equal in value to your green car but maybe I can dig up something else to throw in the box. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/assimilate.gif)

Where are you guys finding yellow cars. I had to custom paint one for the Buttercup Trophy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Finally found one orange one. Little disapointed, they added the side stripes but skimped on painting at least the tail lights and turn signal lenses.

Rick, the yellow ones weren't out when the Buttercup build was going on. However, if you want a yellow one you have to buy the 10 pack to get one. They don't come as a single that I know of.

Also - they are more of a Guldens mustard yellow - not a nice Sunflower Yellow like Buttercup.
