RLC Day! Porsche 964 Is Go! - UPDATED

Best of luck to all RLC members today going for a shot at the Magnus Walker Porsche 964!*





*What a morning this has been trying to score one of the RLC Porsche 964's! I waited a little longer in the waiting room than usual, got to the sale screen and could not add a car to the cart, tried 3 times no luck. I started all over in a new waiting room, got to the sale screen, hit add to cart and was logged out. This was the start of the tug of war, signing out and back in, waiting room time and then I get a message saying only members could purchase! I was logged in and still got the message so I logged out and started over in my attempt at obtaining this Porsche 964. At least 5 waiting rooms were visited, multiple fails, messages of exclusion from forbidden zamac and forced log out/in's and an hour later, I got one. A friend who buys for her son had pretty much the same experience and by judging the comments on the HW's Collectors site, we were not alone..
Fingers crossed Mattel/Hot Wheels can get it fixed!

The Circle Is Now Complete

 
I scored the Pandem Subaru BRZ from the Street Tuners Car Culture series at my favorite Walgreens last night! Every car in this series I pulled from this Walgreens, I love this store!!!

Baja Hauler!

 
For 2019 the Baja Hauler gets an open air box on the back, great place to stick wheels and axles until they are needed!

Walgreens Gotta Go Score

 
Walked into my local Walgreens yesterday for a road coffee/quick car hunt and this was sitting out in the open, waiting for a new home! With what was in the pegs, it was clear this store got a complete case of the Satin and Chrome series, including the Gold Gotta Go Chase. This particular Walgreens is one of my favorite hunt spots, they don't have a huge inventory but they seem to get some really cool cars.
I have pulled Treasure Hunts, limited Premiums and Walgreens exclusives from this location as well as an entire end cap display! I am lucky to have such a good location nearby and I shop there as often as possible!

No Sponsorship Means Pick Your Races Wisely - New id Cars And The 510 Display Combo

I hopped on my id race app the other day and was greeted to new stuffs, cars and features alike and then it dawned on me, new cars? So I hopped on over to the OTD site and yes, new cars are available on Amazon. The display with the Datsun 510 is also there for $49.99, shipped if you do Prime.
Both will be here on or about the 5th...
