Finally the entire set!!!

I know I'm a 43 year old kid... But I have been collecting all kinds of 1/64 Camaro's since 2012. All brands - Hotwheels, Matchbox, Johnny Lighting, etc.

Don't worry your not. I collect just camaro's & pick-up trucks. Basically Low-Rider trucks. I always buy 2 of every one I buy cause I put one away and put one on the wall in each garage. Camaro garage & truck Garage.

Do any of you ever go to the Hot Wheel auctions at K-Mart every 3 months? Or anyone collect the Treasure hunt ones or super treasure hunt ones?

I used to but the K-Marts near me shut down. I keep some of the Super Treasure Hunts that actually interest me but usually trade or sell the others to continue funding the collection. What I do like to search for are the errors that occur. Such as mismatched wheels, missing decals, etc. I have a decent collection of those.

Also look for the ones where the the item is facing left instead of like always facing right.

Just in case non of you know about this. Wal-Mart has a Box in the same area as the rack hot wheels. In this box is a blue plastic bag that says Mystery models on the front. On the back is a list of the Hot wheels in the bags. There is a little see thru hole in the lower right corner of the bag to peek into it. The latest one I just got is a 2013 COPO CAMARO. It's painted Green a color that they didn't produce. Has wide slicks on the back,small narrow wheels is set up to look like a [Drag] car.
On the front turn the bag side ways ther is numbers stamped in black. This is the number for the camaro [ j 4 2/ 12 ] It also has White stripes different than the OEM ones.
