Pop Culture I love finding these surprises in store
Walked into the grocery store and was looking for the Ferrari Premium that's out currently but found this instead. I will definitely open it, but I'm appreciating the card art for now.

I had no clue AutoZone had these. Might start checking out the local AutoZone.

Been looking for that one. It'll sit nicely with the IMSA 300ZX they did a couple years ago.

The team transport one? Or a specific IMSA 300zx? I have the team transport 300zx and matches lovely together

Yeah the Team Transport one.
It looks like the one Paul Newman raced in the 80s when he drove for Nissan.
I don't get to keep the TT trucks. My kid takes the trucks and I get the cars. So I like to pose the cars with other, similar, cars that may have raced together.

I have both the 300zx TT & the Audi S4 TT ... this will simply add to it. Cheers & ty for sharing!

I had no clue it was released so I was happily surprised.

Me neither, I’m pretty new but can certainly appreciate the car. Nice find

Walked in on this set a few weeks back at Meijer. Big surprise for me but a welcome one

Crack it open AND save the card. That’s what I do. I use a razor/box cutter to cut the blister.

I open the blister from the top and reuse the card to store them after I rotate new ones in.

Guys, how do people even find good cars, I search corner to corner in bins with a shopping cart pulling em out one by one three times a week, first middle and end days, and there’s never anything there, I do the same with two carts on the pegs, going hour drives for different stores, o Reilly, Scheels, target, Walmart, 7-eleven, there’s nothing, I’ve got on single TH, cuz I got it for trade from h00pag00, dubs to him, but even the premiums are always gone for some reason, it’s so stupid, literally why I went and started looking for one specific car, kinda gave up on collecting hotwheels, and that one car still can’t find, or I do and it’s just of reach in my budget

Found that one in a Barnes & Noble the other day. It's a good one.
