I went to the store with Tito yesterday and found one purple one on the shelf, put I let him have............yes I am that nice!!
Josh where's the picture of it at?

Now now, you do realize that I picked you up for the ride there Mr. I was going to go by myself (with Riley) but included you :-* :-* :-*

These look like they will be a much lower production than any of the others, wish I knew someone that worked at the WalMart there and could do a stock check in the back cause they were only putting a set at a time on the shelf. I am sure we will find some more. Oh BTW, Micah likes playing with it the most :-X :-X ;D

What is a fair price?

I have an extra green MB & a JL 66 Working Class.

Have you checked Toys R Us? I have seen Superfast ones there but no Broncos in my area yet, not even Wally World so far.

Found one...

While waiting for my daughter to get out of her gymnastics class I took a run up to the nearby Wal Mart. After looking over the diecasts wondering if I would happen to see a bronco on the pegs... No luck.

Just before leaving I decided to revisit the MB section. Look down on the shelf I see a bit of purple. I actually found the 2008 sitting there tucked behind a few others of the superfast series. Only one there, it was actually a fun find.

It is more fun than the ridiculous bidding and adding shipping to an already inflated price.

Now I think Its time to start focusing on my real truck.

Jeff, you've seen the new 2008 Superfasts at TRU?

My bad guys, I was mistaken about the Superfast at Toys R Us. I was thinking for some reason that they carried them at my local TRU, so I stopped and checked. No such animal. Sorry for the false alarm.;D

Zero luck an anything lately here in the panhandle. I know where there's a JL working class on the shelf, but I already have an extra...never saw a Jada for sale anywhere here (I still need another one), & doubt the purple will show up either. Makes you wonder why they make so many of the ones that sit on the shelf because nobody wants them & hardly any of the ones we do want.

Hello all,

Still looking to get a complete set of white lightings, or almost ;)
and... to make it even more difficult I would like to get them in an unopened set.

If you have any of the following and would be interested in selling them please send me an email...

Need whites in...
Sizzling 60's (found loose)
Rescue Patrol (found loose)
Oak Brook Farms (found loose)


Thanks,

-Ed

Thanks,

All,

I was able to bid and win an unopened Ford muscle set with the black bronco included. I would be willing to trade this for a unopened search and rescue set or SUV set with the white lighting version bronco included. My hope is someone has duplicates and may be in need for the ford muscle set.
