They are still available new. I just bought 3 of them a few months ago. Now I have 6.   :devil:

 

They are about $14 each new from HLJ. Shipping is another $10-12, so you really want to order 2-3 at a time. Up to 3 kits, the shipping is about the same. 

 

 

Yeah, but they'll still show up at your door in 2-3 weeks. Not a big deal. Really just means they don't have it in their warehouse and it has to come from the distributor first. 

 

Also, they don't make you pay until it's ready to ship, so...   :thumbup:

 

 

So ordered 3 of these, they only fulfilled 2 :sleep:

 

Cost breakdown as is follows: 2 @ ¥1440 = ¥2880 plus shipping ¥1740= total of ¥4620 or $45.33. So $ 22.67 per, I'm a bit irritated they didn't send me the 3 I actually ordered as shipping was so expensive. I didn't realize these were motorized though B)

When it asked you "ship all together or ship as available" which did you choose?

Yeah. Sadly, it's a gorgeous body let down by the terrible shallow interior. They make them shallow so the electric motor works fit under the car. Whenever I get aorund to building a nice one, there will have to be a new interior tub made...   ^_^

^_^

 

Well crap that explains it, I must've chosen the wrong option. Which also means they are probably going to ship another at some point.

Yeah, been there. Done that   :rofl:

 

Most likely they will ship the other one when it becomes available. Choosing "ship all at once" takes a bit longer sometimes, but will save you a few bucks in the end. And if 2-3 weeks go by and they still don't have them all on hand, they'll even send you a friendly email that says "are you sure you want to wait?"    ^_^

Whatcha got to swap? Pm me here or there

 

I don't have a ton to swap. All I have is for my hoarding purposes only. 

I save 2 of most everything-and nothing more.

If it's a cool one, I'll get an extra for the kids to play with.

 

Datsuns though, is a whole 'nother game.

3 for me to keep.

1 for me to open.

And 1 for the kids to open.

 

 

 

If i ever see any i will get snag you one too, cuz usually they come in bunches and i only really want one.

 

If I find one, I will. 

I'm sure with the crowd around you, you'll get one before we meet. 

 

Here in TC-not a lot of Datto heads. When they hit it's pretty much me and maybe a few others pining for them. 

 

 

And naner-Remember that PM I sent you last? 

Well, I got some. Holy shit did I score. 

Shhhhh...

You guys do know the blue 620's were a 1 time release right, only 1100ish made on that one day, the only ones left at kmarts are the ones that didnt sell on those days. 

 

I don't think they do.  :rofl:

 

Everybody keeps saying "oh, I'll find one eventually". According to Hot Wheels, you won't...  

 

And if you aren't looking specifically at K-Mart, you never will.
