Lockleaf Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Redeye, I wondered if that might be the case, there being a real car they modeled. What/whos car is that kenmeri? Quote Link to comment
Greased monkey Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Greased monkey - Bitchin collection. I like how that first green kenmeri appears to have been nearly copied to make the new hot wheels one. Yeah I like that tomica put the watanabes on :) Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 What/whos car is that kenmeri? The original belongs to Nissan, and always has. Depending on who you ask, it was either a race car they were prepping right before the big oil crisis hit that basically killed their racing program, or it was just a show car intended to promote the upcoming race car they never actually built. A lot of replicas have been built of it, though... The original (still in Nissan's collection): 2 Quote Link to comment

That's the one I just found a few days ago, but mine is abused. chipped paint, one bank of exhaust snapped off, bent axle, basically it's a lot like the 720 I drive every day :-). That's sweet that you found a new one in package. What year was it from? It's from 2000 Lockleaf. It appears to be the last run of the hardbody to date. I like it. Then I found this one from 1996! It's def my favorite of the D21 mold. The rare all black construction tires too! Just got it yesterday. 2 Quote Link to comment

danfiveten Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 My favorite d21 one was the one i found at the goodwill, black and pink. Quote Link to comment
The Taterhead Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Heads-up guys, according to the Hot Wheels Collectors, site the yellow 620 will be at K-Day on February 14th of this year. This is the K-mart event and it will only be available at K-mart starting that saturday and once they are sold they're gone. Remember the blue one last year? http://hwcollectorsnews.com/ http://hwcollectorsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/CFK03_300px.jpg You have been warned. Also Todd, you will have a box coming soon. Leaving me no later than Friday. I haven't forgotten about you. 4 Quote Link to comment
RATDAT3 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Thanks James! Sad for me....the Kmart near me closed a month ago. The other one close closed 2 years ago.....I'd have to driven20 miles for Kday. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 The OC and Clackamas KMarts have closed? Crazy. I was baffled when the KMart in Vancouver suddenly closed on us one day. The KMart out here did the same thing. No notice; just gone. Makes you wonder what the deal is. 1 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Makes you wonder what the deal is. Because Wal-Mart. Every K-Mart in my area closed 6-7 years ago. Oddly, their commercials still run on local TV here... Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Mine too. Closest one is 70 miles away. If it hasn't closed yet. Any pics of this yellow 620? I wanna see if I should even bother. Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Oh, that's hideous. I'll be staying home that day. 1 Quote Link to comment
The Taterhead Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 The nearest one to me is about 35 miles. I will go but I'm not getting up at 4 am to stand in line. Last year I got there about lunchtime and there were still 11 blue ones left. I'll try that same strategy this time. 1 Quote Link to comment

Kmart seemed busy all the time.....Gresham, and Sandy blvd in N.E. are the closest and I have been there last week and they have empty shelves for Hotwheels.....maybe going out too?

Gradyfest Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 You can get a yellow 620 without stepping foot into a Kmart now! You can order the 36 count exclusive set online, that includes the yellow 620. http://lamleydlm.blogspot.com/ http://www.kmart.com/hot-wheels-collector-bundle-36-pack/p-004W005780444002P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1 Quote Link to comment
