BMW 1M Orange City MBX * Matchbox 2013 Case M Release avaible

urbanstorm · 11-05-2013, 07:56 PM

I've hit numerous Target's/Super Targets, Walmarts, ToysRus in the North Texas area over the last couple of weeks and have yet to find one. I've seen mostly Mustangs and Lotus.

Just as TJM129 said, all of the stores I found had pretty poor selection, and of the ones that they had about half were adventure city series. There was nearly a full aisle of Hot Wheels cars.

As of right now eBay has a glut of these things. Lowest starting bid I saw was 97.

Cents.

All the upc's are the same so you cannot look up the UPC to see if any store has it.

Rikx1M · 11-14-2013, 10:03 PM

I bought three hot wheels tonight and told the lady i had three Hot Wheels that were the same car thinking Ii had three E30 M3s, one red, blue, & silver....she said she had to scan each individually as each color was ordered separately. Looking on the back each UPC is different so i figure we can find these cars using the UPC code....

Gtrain · 11-14-2013, 10:07 PM

Hot wheels and the matchbox are different.

Gtrain · 11-14-2013, 10:08 PM

Here are the front and back photos.

Rikx1M · 11-14-2013, 10:15 PM

Great, thanks...where did you find your car?

Looking at this UPC code on Google indeed brings up all kinds of cars...how crazy is that? Piss poor inventory controls on the Matchbox cars if you ask me....thanks for photographing it though....

Anyone got an extra car?

Walmart. They only had one and I asked about the UPC and that's how I found out they all have the same UPC.

pheller · 11-15-2013, 08:33 PM

I bought a few at a Walmart in rural Northwestern Pennsylvania last week.

Dee Pee · 11-16-2013, 05:30 AM

Just went to the Toys R Us in Tsim Sha Tsui but they only stocked stoopid Hot Wheels. Going to comb Mongkok Sunday.

Rikx1M · 11-17-2013, 12:41 PM

Crazy forum we have here...after posting the message above, I had one member offer me a car for $35 with shipping, something like 3500% profit....another offered one for free.....personally i'm of the opinion that i don't mind someone making a profit but 3500% is seriously price gouging....and gouging a fellow enthusiast....not cool.

Then there are guys like LukeM3 that offered a car for free....I'm totally willing to buy him an expensive Belgium beer for his generosity....thx!

That's how it's done!

Dee Pee · 11-17-2013, 07:16 PM

I looked all over Hong Kong but can't find them so I'm just going to hit the toy store when I get home.

If I find any, I'm of the camp that will send you one for whatever postage plus the 97 friggin cents that these go for.

MusclesCoupe · 11-17-2013, 09:56 PM

Those are the wrong wheels lol
