Went looking for a Mister Potato Head electronic game for the grand daughter. Had to stop and check out what was available in the "Boys/Mens" toy section. Found four different body shop 1:18th scale "Ford GT's". Nice looking modle from what little you can see of it. Of course I couldn't find a price on any of them.  Also got to see the new Johnny Lightning 1:18th scale Ford '23 T buckets. Two diffent paint schemes. They are nice, but not my thing. Also found a large 1:6th scale remote control "Ford GT" that would go 20 mph for $130.00.  (to many car parts for that price  )
Mike, they also had a couple of the Johnny Lightning "Pro Collector Tin's" with '70 Torino's. I don't know if you have that one yet or not.
I did buy one Mustang today. Found three 100% Hot Wheels '67 Shelby GT500's in Candy Apple Red w/ white stripes.  Dave & Terri ------------------

Dave,I have the pro collector tin Torino,and the 100% Shelby too. I did better at Wally's this week,with 6 Hotwheels. BTW,you're mean getting that Mr.Potatohead game. You have no idea how many times that thing ALMOST got pegged out the driver's window. Is that a grandparen't revenge toy?  When our house was struck by lightning 5 years ago,there was enough power in the house that the game started on it's own. [This message has been edited by MLariviere (edited 09-07-2003).]

Mike,
Our grand daughters parents are the one's that said Katie wants a Mr. Potato Head electronic game. They asked for it. I wouldn't plan any type of revenge that way. But I will spoil both grand kids when it comes to classic cars.  They will learn about mustang at an early age. Dave & Terri ------------------

I don't recall that red '68 Hot Wheel. Is it new? If so, I need one!

It's actually a '67 Shelby GT500. I'm not sure if it's new or not. It's the first time I have come across it. I'd go get you one, but I'm headed for the ship and will be gone for a little while. I can check again when I get back. They still have two or three at Target. Dave & Terri ------------------
