Just got these two earlier today:
A quick verdict: Both are very good releases, but the Maroon 911S’ headlights and their housings are a little bit loose, which is a problem the orange 911 curiously doesn’t have. It’s probably due to some excess plastic blocking the headlight from slotting fully into the space, but it’s not really a problem. The 911S also has metallic flakes in its exterior paintwork, which are a bit too dense for my liking, although different people may have different reception to it. Both these things knock the 911S down a notch to slightly below its orange sibling, despite the 911S having a more appealing exterior/interior combo on paper, if I were to rate them. Overall they’re still very high-quality releases that offer excellent value-for-money, even more so if you consider TLV’s recent models’ pricing.
Oh, and if you’re worried about having to assemble the side mirrors with glue yourself, one thing I can tell you is that they come pre-assembled on the car. Yes, I’m equally (and pleasantly) surprised as well when I opened the box.

Still on the fence with this one. I like it, but I’m not quite sure I like it enough to pay 70 USD for it. 😕

Years ago I had a couple hundred 1:64 Hot Wheels/Matchbox/Johnny Lightning cars. I sold some and gave the rest (a medium-sized storage container full) to my 2 nephews.
I think I have maybe 2. I know 1 is the BTTF Delorean. The other is a truck of some kind. I might have 1 or 2 more, somewhere in a box.

Been finding the Exotic Envy cars at Target.
Also the Evo and 3000GT will be part of the new Modern Classics set. This might be a difficult one to find.

Just found them at Walmart so I picked up the Senna. Had already purchased the Lambo from eBay, go figure.
I'm going to relay the funds from selling my extra set of the drift cars (whenever my box arrives) to reserving a box of these.

Walmart has been dead in my area for months. Any time they do restock, they're wiped clean within days. I need to check them more often, but it becomes very disappointing when the shelves are almost always empty. Target has been a little bit more lucky for me for hunting.
Honestly never considered buying a box for a set, but the Modern Classics set is very tempting.
Also, T-Hunted just showed the next F&F premium set. I do like the Charger widebody.

Usually around $70 USD for a box but as I said each box comes with 2 sets so if you only need one you can sell the other and make some back.
Another box I'll have to buy...

@Gotbeefboy564, I see you also scored the '67 Chevy C10. So close to the truck I have, yet so far away. It is now more sought after by me than the previously mentioned Ford Lightning.
