Thanks for the suggestion. Stopped by the new Super Wal-mart and they had a huge supply. Picked up a few.
I just picked up 30 Escorts for 2 open autoracks I'm building right now.
Has anyone done this yet? I'd love to see photos.
Went to Wal-Mart yesterday. They put out another box of first run Reel Rides. I picked up 2 more Trans Ams!!! (up to 4 now!!!) I also picked up a Jaguar KM from Malibu International. Thats all they had there new. Nothing else new from any other company.
Does anyone know when the second set of Fresh Cherries is supposed to come out???
I'm working on a rack filled with AMC pacers and gremlins. It's not my era, so it's a Ebay project.
Pa3de8,
The Mercury Bobcat was one of the cars that is supposed to be in the second set!!! If you got one, that means they're OUT!!!!!! There should be about four different cars in that set, just like the first run. Can't remember what the 3 other cars should be, but I THINK a mid to late 70's Mustang 2 was one of them!!!! I'll be checking my local Wal-Mart daily now!!!!
Oh, and yes, I did notice the price increase, but it STILL beats paying the $3.00 to $4.00 at the hobby shops!!!! $1.97 aint bad!!!!
I checked my Wal*Mart today and only managed to find 3 new untouched boxes of Reel Rides, so I grabbed another Chevy C-10.
When the line first came out, I added it to my lis ton Model Railroad Tips, and subsequently received an email from a gentleman named Dave H. Here's an un-edited quote "the Fresh Cherries have a 79pinto wagon, 75 bocat, 74 gremlin, 81 escort, 84 tempo, & 78 pacer 2 colors each." So according to him, the Bobcat was in the first run, that there were 6 vehicles, though all I've EVER seen on eBay were 4.Well I guess we can agree that the second set is out as we speak. It's out here in NE PA anyway.
All that was on the shelf was the Bobcats though and the AMC cars, a few Escorts and Pinto Wagons.
