This weeks Kroger hauls. (Fixed link. Sorry about that)
And some of my last few hauls.
Interesting, I haven't seen that Shredster in those colors yet.
Here is the shredster. It's red and brown. Black would look better but it's still cool.
- Oh, that Shredster is a Spider-Man license. Neat. — redlinederby
- OK Cool. I forgot all about the Spiderman series — KandORacing
Doesn't roll but I just "bought now" a pair of AFX slot car grandstands for our series' pre-race bracket pairing's and finishline background diorama... Molded plastic not cardstock [wasted $20 on the paper]...
Can anyone post a picture from ebay... don't know how...
- cool, can't wait to see it in your set up. — Traction-Event
- I'll try.... I will see if I can find the stands that you bought. — KandORacing
- Is that the right one - only AFX BIN I found. — Milton-Fox
- If not copy and paste the auction number here. — Milton-Fox

- they made roundy round racing noises... called revamatic grandstands... — model40fan
- yup... thanks miltn ! — model40fan
- Roundy Round LOL That's what my mom calls NASCAR — KandORacing
- got mine, they are so old they advertize DATSUNs — model40fan
they look to be 4" to 4.5" long, so the hot dog stand will probably be set up between them... watching some guard rails.. the ones with holes or channels through the uprights allow 1 bailing wire clamp to be bent so it holds the whole rail vertical...

Found this for $10 Hot Wheels Screamin Stunt Jam electric racing set released in 1999. Everything works & all the parts are in the box. Looks like one car has been replaced, the stock car should be a 1940 pick up. Both Fishtail, ET racing and myself are having a blast...brings back memories of my old Tyco sets...and new memories for my boys...great stuff. having the boys warm up on the squared oval, before we put the loop, jump and wall ride in...soon

- I was told that Hot Wheels made slotcars for a short time. Very interesting! — KandORacing
- They defy gravity! That's madness! ;P — redlinederby
- buddy and i are working on a 1/43 slot car oval on a hinged base to give to SAFE VOICES at XMAS time — model40fan

Lucky day at Walmart.
First one to find a fresh ( maybe 4 cases) dump bin.
Ended up leaving them behind. Hoping a youngster finds them, not a scalper.
Found about 40 cars I wanted, but could only justify 9 of them for practical uses.
- Congrats! I'm out of the loop on THs nowadays. Around here it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. — Dadvball
- Thanks. One of the RHogs was my wife's first ever ( non Kmart day) "In the wild" find! I'm so PROUD of her!! — CrzyTrkrDude
took hole shot out for xmas breakfast , today... he needed to stop at dolla tree... not a hot wheels car left on the pegs...
i mentioned while we were still at kmart how i always look at the cars the kids have dropped under the pegs...
looked there at dolla tree and there were 2 matchbox...
one was the '60's dodge stubnose pick up [delta 6] now it is at my HOME ALONE...
This one qualifies more as a re-find. I evidently picked these up back in 2003 some time. The Vette sat on my work office shelf for the longest time, but I had forgotten these other 4 had come with it!
