OK Evil, I gots yer orange thing....

But when I came to at the checkout, there was a yellow 61 Jag XKE in my hand,

a chrome silver (or mebbe polished die cast) Ford GT with blue stripes...

And, my real prize? A 1967 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA in white..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) A neighbor has one- on jackstands. The GTA was a nice looking sports coupe body (by Bertone) plopped on the same chassis as my Dad's 67 Berlina 4 door.

Evil, is that yer van? Haven't found it yet.

That Alpha is cool (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

That is the bus I have, but I am looking for an individual one, not the one in the 5 pack.

This is so much more therapeutic than buying real cars. I feel so much better this way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Do the 914's only come in green? The other cars have color varations but none for the 914? Tangerine would be fantastic if they had them or maybe plan them in the future....

I am sure that once the '10 New Model is done with it's run, that Mattel will produce the 914 in other colors. Hopefully they are tracking the success of the sale of these.

Now I wish I knew how many were produced and how many are owned by actual 914 owners. Time for a Matchbox 914 VIN Registry! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

There for a while I was pretty avidly collecting Hot Wheels. A few years back, I opened them all and turned them over to my daughters. I decided to have a look at all the ones I could find so far.

Porsche collection (minus the NARPs of course):
(IMG:http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u307/Sleepin1974/Hot%20Wheels/101_0154.jpg)

Original Elise (that my oldest daughter was named after coincidentally):
(IMG:http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u307/Sleepin1974/Hot%20Wheels/101_0158.jpg)

Meyers Manx:

And the Crown Jewel:

Don't tell me that we need a Toys forum..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

A little more digging revealed a spacy '67 21 window:
(IMG:http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u307/Sleepin1974/Hot%20Wheels/101_0162.jpg)

and a commemorative 1969 Twin Mill done in 1998:

(IMG:http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u307/Sleepin1974/Hot%20Wheels/101_0166.jpg)

then, when I got back to work, I discovered my new 914 (suprise) had broke down, and I had to call AAA: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I noticed that on the macro setting of my camera, they tend to tiltshift themselves. Pretty cool stuff, maybe I should run this through the tiltshift maker.

I hit two targets and a TRU today. No joy and the ones I am seeing are all lame now.

I did see a 20 pack with a yellow convertible thing in it, and a 10 pack with a cool old jag. Not worth the price to me right now.

I did score a Manx.
