OK so I was able to get one of the weird green cars out of the set. I would like to unpackage one of the orange Boulevard cars and reseal the green one in its place. Can anyone tell me how this is done? Thank you Looks like your the first World member to have your hands on one. Now lets see a photo next to the orange 914-6? |

Good comparison shots!
Now... who else is ready for what is rumored as possibly the LAST re-colour of the Matchbox 914? This metallic light blue 914 will be exclusive to 1 of 8 different 2013 9-packs; the 914 being the only exclusive car in the pack with matching blue-914 themed packaging! So to clarify, this model will NOT be available individually, only in the 9-pack for $10-$12 USD. The rear deck lid includes PORSCHE script as seen and the Matchbox '60th Anniversary' logo, no painted headlights or taillights, obviously the serial number on the hood will be absent, but it's unclear if the windshield frame will correctly be painted body colour like previous Matchbox 914 models. Also, as of today it has not been released, 3 of 8 sets are out but no 914... though it may be next!

It's pretty funny though, I guess you have to have been around here for a few years before you get the humor... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) |

Looks like its time to start toy hunting again... to be honest ... it never ends (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) this year Schuco comes up with 5 new releases of 1/43 scale models and an additional one, only for Schuco Collectors Club members (unfortunately I'm not ...) |

They opened a new Walmart this weekend. I found a hidden stash of Hot Wheels. They must send the good stuff to the new stores.
BooYeah! |

It shouldn't be too hard to come by here in the next month. I already have 1 of the blue Matchbox, & 3 of the blue/orange hotwheels 914-6's; I've probably seen 20+ of the new hotwheels variant but wasn't sure if there was demand from the forum? Also, I would be interested to see those 5 Schuco 914's... Happen to have a link to some photos? |

I already have a loose blue Matchbox 914 "60th anniversary", and I too have the blue Hotwheels ...
but of course I would want the full gift-pack too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) here's a pic of the new Schuco 1/43 cars, that should come this year (together with the already known LEs) |

Haven't seen anymore just yet though... As far as the Schuco 1/43;I must have them all! Only that minor issue of each one costing nearly $50... That said I will still have to acquire them! Are any of those in the picture the 'members only' edition you mentioned? |
