A new TR6 just came out too. Also in yellow. So far 3 colors for them; green, red & the new yellow. Hotwheels though.. Grabbed a couple of metalic blue 308's and a varitey of early Mustangs. You guys have me hooked on this too! The series I think are really cool are the Hotwheel classics. $3.00 a pop, but neet neon colors and very cool cars. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the yellow 914. Still need one of those blue ones too. The P1800 volvo is out in red. Starting to see more and more of them.

Hey fellow Teeners! I just spotted the new Mustard Yellow variant of the 914 as well... I bet all of you it's about one month before we see it on the pegs in the typical single pack.

Why do I say this... I've noticed all sorts of other Mattel cars; (i.e. Hotwheels) can show up 1-2 months before they're supposed to in the 10 pack and more often 2-pack assortments. Such as the 2011 Hot Wheels metallic green Tesla Roadster I picked up well before it came out on a single card... which is just now starting to trickle into stores.

I'm just excited the 914 is being produced in 4 full line colors versus the 2 they originally forecasted!

I'm on the same page as many of you with the blue convention exclusive 914; it's no doubt collectable but the big painted logo on the trunk isn't very factory 914... and if Matchbox keeps up at this rate we'll all have a full assortment of factory colored 914s within 3 years! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Wow so I take back what I said about the 10-pack; it turns out THE MUSTARD YELLOW 914 IS EXCLUSIVE TO THE 10-PACK! I found two 10-packs with the yellow 914 yesterday and took one home. I figured two would be excessive; but... having not seen a full photo of the box before, I didn't realize until I got home that it says "EXCLUSIVE EDITIONS" in large lettering at the bottom of the box. So... now that I'm fully educated on the 914 status; I'll probably purchase 2-3 more 10 packs, rescue the 914, and sell the remainder of the exclusive paint job vehicles on eBay!

A photo of what I acquired will soon follow!

I've scored 3 of them, two dark green ones and one really wierd floresent green looking one.

One of the dark green ones I left in the package so I can trade for a white one maybe?

The other two I opened and play with often at work while sitting at my desk:

I just found my first one. After many trip to the NJ walmarts and K-Marts, I happen to be walking through Rite-Aid and I saw a bobcat (matchbox) and one other behind it (two in the store). Lo and BEHOLD, a dark green 914~!

YAHOOOO!

The funny part is that I had told my Kids that they were NOT getting any toys that trip and look what I go an do... (BAD PARENT AWARD GOES TO???)

The box is a nice touch.

I have found several dark green ones, but none of the other two greens. Yesterday I scored two 10 packs with the yellow ones!! Does any one want to trade a dark green for one of the really light green ones?

I came across two of collector packs at Target with the yellow ones, i passed on them also. I've picked up over a dozen of the other ones i decided that i have a problem.

BUT if they issue a signal orange car i will be all over them.
