I found that one last year (page before this one). Lately my Target has had these Hot Wheels, MatchBox and all diecast on clearance. Was that the case when you saw this one? I picked up two more of the MatchBox Type 3 fastback moving parts at BOGO last week at Target.

Yeah, I heard that in the video. I’ve read about a couple advertised over past few years, but they were proven to be customs and not the real thing. Those estimated prices real bring out the shysters.

I always loved that the holy grail of all Hot Wheels is a VW bus!
But I did want to beat that guy for getting his mitts all over it. It's getting to the point that you need to wear cotton gloves to protect the paintwork and plating, because any deterioration can be $$$!

This is a new release and as you can see in the upper right, it's one of five in the Transformers series. It's also the only VW in this series.

Picked this up at FamilienFest (2024) in the swap area. It’s from 1998.
