I totally wasn't looking, because I never expected to see one...but just last week I was at Walmart looking at diecast cars...and I found this for $20

That looks pretty sweet. That's 20 Canadian right?Inder

VibeChick · Post by **VibeChick** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 1:38 pm

Yeah, $20 Canadian...so about $5 US What a bargain! I've never seen one up here, I was pretty excited!

Wow! I want one. I have only found 1 in stores and it was an all gray small remote control car with removable body kit pieces. I want one like that! Taking orders?!?

Kari · Post by **Kari** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 1:55 pm

Wow....I'll have to go look for that. What brand is it?Even the dash is correct...that's just awesome. Great attention to detail.

VibeChick · Post by **VibeChick** » Fri Jan 07, 2005 2:13 pm

I can't remember what brand it was....and unfortunately it was the only one at the store!! A lucky find for sure. Great idea though...hmm...if I spot more, maybe I should grab them!

Yeeeah...while i'd still get it if it was the newer '05...it's much better to be the '04...I still think it's more aggressive.

It's a recessed Pontiac grille...that's all.

lol hardcore! I've seena few on ebay! As much as I hate Wal-Mart I may have to go get one and repaint it with my expert model building skillz I found a couple Matchbox Satellite Vibes at my work, if anyone wants one let me know, there's a few left. I bought one and gave INder one.We should all get one and paint them to match our cars and bring them to the Rally in June.

Celtic_Curse · Post by **Celtic_Curse** » Sat Jan 08, 2005 10:51 am

That one is cooler than mine!! I got the Yellow version at Wal-Mart.

Kari · Post by **Kari** » Sat Jan 08, 2005 11:02 am

Well how come everybody's been keeping it a secret until now? LOL

Merzbow · Post by **Merzbow** » Sat Jan 08, 2005 1:21 pm

I went to TWO Wal-Marts and couldn't find any I found Focus's, Civic Si's but no Vibes I'll look again later. What brand is that one?

Super fast....Vibe GT....Not usually used in the same sentence by me

Kari · Post by **Kari** » Sun Jan 09, 2005 3:26 am

You bought one so there must have been something you liked about it.

Stang2Vibe · Post by **Stang2Vibe** » Sun Jan 09, 2005 3:37 am

If I can manage to sneak away from my g/f for a few minutes when we're shopping at WalMart, I peek in the toy section for mini-Vibes sometimes. Still haven't found any near me yet. Lots of ricer stuff, though . I'll have to run out and check again.

Merzbow · Post by **Merzbow** » Sun Jan 09, 2005 12:27 pm

I noticed that too while I was there...TONS of street racing tuner cars...why didn't they have these cool cars when I still played with them? I was stuck playing with stock corvettes, ferraris, and imports lol.

Guess Wal-Mart aligns their toy car distribution to regional GM sales, 'cuz I've been looking for toy Vibes in half a dozen Wal-Marts near me (Houston) and haven't found a single Vibe. :-(I really want a new ornament for my monitor at work...

What brand is that one?I think it might have been a matchbox...I'll check on that. I was surprised to see one really. I haven't seen them anywhere else. Seen the odd matrix though.Celtic_Curse - you should keep your eye out for them since you're there all the time!

Merzbow · Post by **Merzbow** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 11:23 am

What brand is it?The brand is Yat Ming, the same manufacture who made the 1:24 scale blue and white ones and the 1:18 red and yellow GT-Rs. I have been wanting to get the newer GT-Rs as well. It comes in both white and green. I will have to look at the Wal-Mart's around here.And I have to agree, thank goodness it is the '03/'04 body. Here are a couple pics from the Yat Ming website:
