What cars have you found lately?
I ordered the new Twin Mill on eBay. Got a great price at $7.25 with shipping included - decided it was less $ than driving around to different Walmarts hoping to find it.
The car looks great. Weighed in at 30.57 grams. However....the rear wheels are a bit wide to run well on the Dollar Tree orange track. It stopped mid way on the track.

- looks nice, too bad it needs a wheel shave — dr_dodge
- Nice! — ManiacMotorsports
- I never had a car that didn’t fit the track. — alva1370
- The Ford GT also has a wide rear axle. — GspeedR
- I found one at Walmart a few days ago. I haven’t opened it yet. Sad to hear it doesn’t run well on the track. — Banjo
Hot Tub that I bought at Dollar Tree. Weighs at 34.1 I really like this casting. 
- Found one also, crazy fast wheel spin but mine is not fast on the track at all. — Stickdog
- Give it another chance. Put some WD40 — Zizzer_Prime
My latest featuring the worlds slowest Pontiac. She’s headed for the speed shop.
Bought these on Ebay £1 each. The seller had over 400 cars,he bought them to modify but never got round to it. I think I'll see if they all roll and choose 16 for another race with maybe a different set up.Some really old ones

Found a two pack at Five Below for $2.00. I've never seen a two pack before. The yellow car on top is a "Megan's Trophy" and was pretty fast right out of the package.
- I didn't know they made two packs anymore, but they are usually two cars from one 5 pack. This one looks like Nightburnerz 5 pack. — ManiacMotorsports
- think 2 packs are a 5 below exclusive — dr_dodge
Popped into our local big box for a few items and somehow these cars got stuck to my jacket or something. And also, I can never pass up a lowered Chevy towing a trailer.

- Nice finds. — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- nice, and I agree on trailers — dr_dodge
- Nice finds! — ManiacMotorsports
- I’m liking the Silverado — alva1370
My $50 haul from a diecasting spree this past Thursday. Several Metal/Metal candidates contained within.
- Barrel of fun! — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- 2 buckets from a honey hole. — alva1370
- The diecast store I visit periodically has two barrels of loose, used diecast I sift through. I bring a stool and spend a couple hours digging to the bottom of each. — BadWoolRacing
- Score!!!! — ManiacMotorsports
- very cool! — dr_dodge
- My favorite way to buy! Great job — Zamak_Speed_Shop
Just got home from a week in North Carolina. Scored some cars I haven't seen anywhere but eBay. Total haul for under $60. Mustang's galore at one shop, a $3 SIKU and Crash Racer Nissan. I even scored at Walmart and Family Dollar. Met some really nice people over there y'all!!! Passed up the F/F Ghibley and Road Runner and 2 Mirada's, just wanted a bit more than I was willing to pay.
- nice! — dr_dodge
- Nice Mustangs, I like the 71-73. — alva1370
- That is a lot of Mustangs! Great haul. — ManiacMotorsports
Some recently acquired Johnny Lightning Toppers. The Custom Ferraris(1969) are the ones with a lift up hood. The Frantic Ferraris(1970) have the exposed engine(kinda silly looking). The beat up Gold one in front is a rare early production car with opening doors.
These are my Topper 'Jet Powered' cars. They had a plastic internal bladder that held compressed air that was released by a trigger in the track. No, it never really worked very well and the line only lasted for one year. From left to right: The Bubble, Flying Needle, The Monster, The Wedge, and The Glasser.
