I purchased this recently at a local toy show. It is a provence moulage kit that was professionally built and sold through Motor City in Hollywood, CA. This is number 6 of 75 kits that were pro built. Considering what these resin kits look like to start with, this builder did an amazing job...
To my knowledge, there is no unsold stock. Hot Wheels fly off the pegs at the local stores and are restocked often. HW produces a given model for a few weeks and it is available in a specific case assortment. Then HW immediately moves on to producing the next case assortment. Usually a given...
The USB drive is 1:64 scale and has 8GB of storage. There is one seller on eBay who makes them out of Hot Wheels cars. They are all customs. He has 5 recent viper models available. They cost about $28 each with shipping. I've been watching these for a while, trying to decide if its worth...
Hot Wheels has confirmed "The [New York Auto Show] version shown in the link is not the same as the Basic retail version. A small number were produced for the show and had no stripes, but additional deco (hood vents, rear fascia) to replicate the car as it debuted at the show."
The one from...
Last I checked, these could still be purchased in the collectibles section of Michaels or AC Moore. Plus there are usually 40 or 50% off coupons that run in the Sunday paper for an even better deal.
I used to use these myself until I became unhappy with the amount of dust that was collecting...
This model was a San Diego Comic Con exclusive. It was only sold at the convention, and never available at retail, which is why it commands a higher price then some of the other alternators.

1) The Brookfield is available on eBay from time to time. It is not seen quite as often as the blue one and usually sells for $10-20.
2) Personally, I have to check my collection to see if I have the HW with the red interior as it doesn't look familiar. The one seen fairly often has a black...

It was a very long and fun day! Lots of diecast viper buying, selling, and trading! Thanks David for posting the great pics you took of the event models.
PS - that's me in the yellow shirt in the lower right next to my wife and son. My next diecast viper project will be to celebrate his 1st...
This wave is just hitting stores, so they should turn up in a few weeks. I haven't found any near me in Pennsylvania yet either. Some of my friends have found the Target version on the snowflake card.

I've considered this, but how long do you think it would take you to copy 18 DVD's? For me, it's easier to just buy a set!
And I agree the show is a little corny, but for me, it brings back a lot of memories watching it as a kid. Plus this show has everything to do with why I started liking...
In reading the comic book thread I gather there is interest in the Viper TV show. If anyone is interested in the complete series, you can buy it here on DVD-R:

I bought a set from here a few months ago and they are very well done. The shows were basically recorded on VHS when reruns...
The BJ's close to me only has red left as there were more red then blue per case. If you would like both colors, then I have a friend who can probably help out. Let me know.

Glad you were able to find some! It's always better to find them locally to avoid shipping! If you have friends and/or family in other areas of Canada, they would be a great resource then to cover more stores.

This model from Maisto is currently available in Canadian Wal-Mart's on a blue Ruff & Tuff card.
The same model is available in Walgreens on a red Speed Wheels card and in American Wal-Mart's on a blue Fresh Metal short card. This would be the cheapest 1:64 model and the only blue/white GTS...
