Can anyone help me out?
none locally, but you already know, however the local had a sign up saying collector event cars advertised in the christmas catalogue is 2 per person...
there is no vacant spaces on the shelf, with little stock moving in the two days since thursday, there was a barcode/pricetag at one target with the description W7057 Cars Collectors Event asst 2012. $10.00
not sure if this refered to frosty or the silver edition cars....
and is frosty the "chase" mixed in with these cars or seperate promotion....
i wouldnt put it past the staff if they have taken them like they do with the Skylanders "Varients"
Got a picture?
I'll keep an eye out.
I'd like one as wellQuote:

Thats the one....
It was advertised for the current Target cat, but the 7 close stores to me all say they never even received it.... all the others just say sold out, but won't say if they got it or not
Saw this in the catalouge, 5 or 6 limited ed cars. I shall hunt for you!!:D
And you want him and the reason why you can't find him in store? The reason is: EBAY. Bet that's where they all gone. One ebay sale has 10 in the one sale. Bloody hell. Lookin at $40+ on ebay.
Damn! That's ridiculous!
no wonder I ahve seen NONE.
But plenty of messy dug through cars shelving.
I have added it to my Target prowling and am looking for it for you guys but i've had no luck so far. This is a little something i can do and if i see it i can buy it on sight without fear of being stuck with it.
No chance :( to get it then.Quote:

So.... who was saying that there aren't scalpers in this country?
Not me :)Quote:

There seems to be a lot of frosty in QLD. Most of the ebay selling are from there.
Can a kind soul get me one please? :D
Can someone grab me one too please? Id be much grateful.
And me a couple please!!!! (I did start the thread!!)
The horse has bolted guys
The chase models are long gone
They can't be that hard to find.
I just found one at Target Watergardens without looking (it was the first toy on the peg).
Please help. Are there more?
The target girl told me there was only going to be 4000 released australia wide and she has had many calls about it.
I'll offer two chase or this :)
I gave up hunting for one long ago. May have to resort to paying for him on ebay. F***in scalpers :mad::mad::mad:
I wouldn't give up all hope guys, seek and ye shall find. Bought him at blacktown target just now. Looked but couldn't see more.
pic? :)
I have a pix on Facebook so far, still out and I'll post a picture here when i get home.
I just saw about 20 or so of these supposed 'super-chase' Frosty cars at Target.
If anyone still wants one, let me know.
I want one, please :) or two if allowable ;)
I can go back there later tonight and grab a few.
How does $12 for the first, and $15 for subsequent ones sound?
I think that's fine :) Do you see flash too?
I went back and bought 3/4 of the Frosty's they had.
The second photo is what it looked like at Target.
If there isn't much interest, I'll start returning them after Xmas.
Isn't that technically scalping, except w/out the price change?
But I see what you're doing by helping us. I thought people would be all over these.
i know Krayt might be after a couple still and i wouldnt mind 1 depending on postage costs. can you PM me what target you got them from.?Quote:

Frosty might be in stores now!! Go toy hunting tomorrow:D
what's a purple mini?
Anyone see the other chases: Russian Racer, Memo Rojas Jr and Long Ge?
It's not scalping if there isn't a price change... I think you're thinking of him being greedy for buying up so many (if he wasn't thinking of other people as the reason for doing it - if he was being greedy or a scalper, you wouldn't even see his offer posted here, he would have just listed them all on ebay).Quote:

Charging an extra $3 for each additional figure could be in case a person wanted several, with plans of just scalping them on ebay themselves. (how'd you feel if you thought you were helping out others, just to have someone only buy them from you to sell on ebay for twice the price)
Can i grab 2? Jazzcomp, wanna post together?
Sure, just let Demonac know :)Quote:

Wish these were there two weeks ago when they were on sale for $8 each with 50% off the second toy. :) but a chase is a chase :)
