ksl_redsoxfan 03-26-2005, 02:31 PM dub city scion's will always be the best
bBlover 03-26-2005, 02:34 PM True dat true dat. I wish someone made a 1:24 stock HL, Solar Yellow, and a BOP. And the RS colors with their special accessories.

Whenever I go, there's as many adults looking these days as there are kids. (at least I keep telling myself that...)
grzydj 03-26-2005, 05:49 PM Why is it clear plastic? Is Tasso making xB's now too?

There are. I'm 34 and I'm always in the die cast section of any store I go into looking for cars I don't have. I found two new, as far as I know, Import Racer, xBs in Target last week. One's blue, the other is silver, and both have brand stickers down the front dorr and an Import Racer windshield banner.
katchkillah 03-26-2005, 06:30 PM chadfo do you have pics? would like to see what it looks like.
mypursuit 03-26-2005, 08:05 PM I WANT ONE I WANT ONE NOW!!!!!!!!!!
I don't.
It looks nothing like an xB, the proportions are wrong. The wheels, the roof. It could be anything from a Humvee to I don't know what.
I'm really disappointed.
Hot Wheels suck though, Matchbox cars were always much better quality, I mean the Made in England ones they had when I was a kid. The ones made in southeast Asia suck, just like Hot Wheels. Poor quality junk.
bB2NER 03-26-2005, 11:52 PM So far I like everything xB that has hit the market! I now want a 1/24 and a 1/18 scale version of the HIN xB's. Also a large version of the import racers R/C like the ones they have for other model cars!!!
bB2NER 03-27-2005, 12:00 AM Hot Wheels suck though, Matchbox cars were always much better quality, I mean the Made in England ones they had when I was a kid. The ones made in southeast Asia suck, just like Hot Wheels. Poor quality junk. Don't know how old you are but I always remember Hot Wheels were the QUICK ones. LOL I had some of the very first ones that came out in '68. Matchboxes were always only good for blowing up with M80's, they were always out of proportion and didn't roll for crap. I wish they would bring back the wheels that you could change, loved the skinny front runners with Redline tires and Crager S/S wheels. PS I old I can't help it. LOL :rofl:
SamOnFire 03-27-2005, 12:00 AM ok, maybe I'm wrong, but if you made that thing life-size, is it sitting on 40s??
Lonely_Raven 03-27-2005, 12:05 AM Ewe, fugly
bB2NER 03-27-2005, 12:13 AM ok, maybe I'm wrong, but if you made that thing life-size, is it sitting on 40s?? UMMMM it's a kids toy... not a replica :doh:
bballplayer0968 03-27-2005, 12:24 AM looks kinda like a t2B
FrankenScion 03-27-2005, 12:29 AM looks more like the 5axis xB to me
chadfo 03-27-2005, 12:59 AM chadfo do you have pics? would like to see what it looks like.

Nice collection! I wish had the expendable income to get all the xBs that are out right now. So far I've only got the white and black 1:24 Dub City xBs, the 3 HIN xBs, and the red/silver 1:64 Dub City xB.
I saw the silver and blue 1:24 Import Racer xBs at a local Target 2 days ago for $9.99 each. Very tempting! :D
Never seen the small Import Racer xBs anywhere in town, though! :(
KevinxB 03-27-2005, 04:09 AM Do the big Import Racers have the changeable wheels and CF hood?
The_XBox 03-27-2005, 04:24 AM Fetthunter-- Nice collection. I am not sure how many XB toys are out. I live in a small Podunk town. Our biggest attraction is we have a 24 hours Walmart. I wish I could find the Top 2 IR XB's and the Top 2 DC XB's. ALso what is the small red one at botton center?
I have all others cept the RC xb. im still hutning though.
LVBoxman 03-27-2005, 04:55 AM Leave it to mattel to mess up a good car. I have wrote them guy's many emails telling them to stop smoking pot then try to make a cool looking car. it just don't work.
katchkillah 03-27-2005, 04:57 AM thanks chadfo, dang now i gotta make some phone calls again. this is never ending.
ThunderGod 03-27-2005, 06:50 AM ok now, so is this Hot Wheels out on the market as of now? & if not any release dates?

HUH??? The HIN Hotwheel ones look more real than the import racers and dubs ones :doh:
katchkillah 03-27-2005, 10:01 AM i think he's referring to the regular hot wheels.

http://216.77.188.54/coDataImages/p/Groups/204/204797/folders/192577/1481862General031.jpg I had those for a while now. I just don't have a cam to post the pics here. I have everything in ur .collection except for the Incredibles bB and the white xB

That's actually chadfo's collection. I dropped some quote tags somewhere along the way. :(
Sciond 03-27-2005, 04:36 PM Do the big Import Racers have the changeable wheels and CF hood?
Only the orange one
bB2NER 03-27-2005, 06:35 PM Do the big Import Racers have the changeable wheels and CF hood?
Only the orange one
Actually, I've seen a blue import racer with 2 sets of wheels and a CF hood also think it was a Garage Works IR
bBlover 03-30-2005, 03:43 PM Got that right Jethro. Only the Black, Orange, and Garage WOrx Blue xB come with interchangeable wheels and hood. The new Import Racer xBs (small) are on the market now I think
bBlover 04-11-2005, 12:10 AM Any news on the release date of this xB?
katchkillah 04-11-2005, 09:08 AM still haven't seen those transparent hotwheels yet. and also the collector shops in hawaii haven't seen it yet.
Solarxb20 04-11-2005, 01:37 PM I collect hotwheels... now i have to go to the toy stores until i find a few ^^
XbbbbBox 04-11-2005, 02:24 PM I like the chopped look.
TrappedInABox 04-11-2005, 03:41 PM i think i own the most xB's outta anyone. 42 all together including a '05 BSP. can you say i love my car :love:
xB_Nutt 04-12-2005, 02:14 AM As a major league die cast junkie I can tell you these are not out yet...soon, very soon. I'll let you know when they hit.
katchkillah 04-12-2005, 08:54 AM much mahalos, xb nutt

That you are cool?

chadfo 05-28-2005, 05:31 AM The Hot Wheels xBs are out now! I've seen them on Ebay but not in my local stores.

DisneybB 05-28-2005, 03:00 PM I have been lurking among the 7yr olds in the toy stores looking for one :tap:
You meantn Grown Men with beards who sell these little TOYS on ebay shoving the kids out of the way. I've nearly gotten in fights with scalpers. Also, have yet to find a xb but I'm going June 18Th to K-mart to get the color variation of it.
xB_Nutt 06-18-2005, 02:25 PM The blue one is out!!! I grabbed a couple at the K-Mart Collectors Event this morning. It's pretty cool. The top comes off and you can then open the roll cage. Has a little motor bike laying in the back and a couple of subs...
fastsold 06-18-2005, 03:55 PM WHAT no Solar Yellow? :evil: :cry: :flame:
chadfo 06-18-2005, 04:22 PM No yellow. I picked up 3 at Kmart this morning. Now I have both colors.
bBlover 06-18-2005, 07:11 PM Are the blue ones a limited edition?? Cuz I have been looking for it! Someone in Southern Cali lemme know if you find it!!
AWW-SH7 06-18-2005, 07:14 PM WOW!!! I need one of those!
chadfo 06-18-2005, 07:24 PM Yep! The blue was a K-mart Collector's Day special color. The only way to get one now is get to K-mart ASAP and hope they aren't all gone, have a friend that went, or look in Ebay. If you didn't already know about the blue XB the first 2 options aren't likely to happen. I've already looked and they are on Ebay. It appears that you can probably get one for about what they cost in the store ($0.99) but you'll have to add S & H to that.
