WHATTAHELL?

HW collector Zynore said...
"Walked into a garage sale this morning - found a sealed case of Hot
Wheels on the table. Asked if I could open it to check the contents,
but she wanted to sell the case unopened, so I asked how much for the
case, she said $10. I figured I couldn't go wrong, so I bought the
case, took it to the car to open it, hoping maybe a treasure hunt was in
it...much to my surprise, the first car I took out was a Super Trea$ure
Hunt! Looked again...noticed EVERY SINGLE card had a green edge. On
closer inspection, found this to be an unopened case of 2007 Super
Treasure Hunts Corvettes C6R - the mail-in Toys R Us exclusive - all of
them were in Hot Wheels protective packs. So for $10 I got 48 pristine
unpacked, uncirculated Super Treasure Hunts!!! "








Lucky bugger!!!

If this true then somebody please script it for the movie.
Might be somebody as insider sneak it then kantoi and have to thrown it away.
Then old mackcik jumpa and joint garage sell. This lucky fella just ignoring " what the hell " just grab it la.

Or true collector buying like hell 20 mainline bxs every month and managed a box full of thunt.
But wife got fed up throw everything away ( my sister throw 3 bags of golf club to sg.klang of my poor bro in law..eehee.)

Or some Indons after ransacked thought found a box of piggy bank full. Saw just a toys and leave it on the road.

What is your version?

Guys...come on the pic above with items are legit of course.....even the x72 $TH haul is also real!!

Seeing is believing....the case has a distinguished code for Mail-in promo, also notice color looks exactly like a x72 car case....but wait it's only x48. Definitely a mis-shipped package Smile...good on the guy for that score...surely the person who lost this $uper case will be condemning and cursing LOL

Mail-in car is buy 20 certain mainline cars, mail in the card to Mattel, and they send you the mail-in car free, rite?

TRU also had the promo just for the C6R super I think. Buy from TRU the cars, mail-in the card to TRU and get the TRU C6R super.

Just happened that year the C6R super from TRU was different from the super from the peg, so more pain for collectors. What a Face

Yes, it was a first come first serve basis. (well, in this case, first to mail...)
Furthermore, at that time, it was year end. So, I lot of collectors was reluctant to buy
thinking it was the same Thunt$ until they found out it was a different VARIANT.

The dark window comes with the Mail-in promo, super black

The clear window comes in 72 cases, color vary from black to grey (due to paint process i guess, any questions can ask over at the other board. We have a HW engineer on the board Wink )
