$10 for all 3 shipped to my door. Not a bad deal. Especially since I never seem to remember to look for them at the store lol.

I see four...........

ToyotaObsession · « **Reply #2 on:** Sep 28, 2011, 02:50:27 AM »

I bought one extra so I can open it up and play with it lol.

I got all 3 models in one auction on Ebay for $10. Not bad considering I paid $5 including shipping for the 4th one.

Hot Wheels has been doing tons of awesome old cars again, and Matchbox seems to have gotten the memo too. I have not been able to find these locally. There is also an FJ40, and Hot wheels has a Baja themed race FJ40. Not a Toyota but HW also has a pretty sick raced out Datsun 510.

I'm going to buy as many as I can find, these are way cool. Hopefully they do more Toyotas.

Where did you order these ToyotaObsession?

chim · « **Reply #12 on:** Sep 28, 2011, 03:14:44 PM »

They are all over EBay and I also found them local at K-Mart

I saw these in Toyota 4WD Owner's and they only had the 1st Gen 4Runners and FJ40's listed. But I guess they've been coming out with them for a few years now. So it's possible!

Right off Ebay. There's a ton of them and most are overpriced. $5+shipping. That was the only auction I saw with all 3 in one listing.

I didn't know about the that other FJ40. That's cool. Honestly I'm surprised someone hasn't done this sooner. I mean everywhere you look it's Ford and Chevy with maybe a new Tundra thrown in.

From what little reasearch I did they started in 2009 with the red one, 2010 was blue, and 2011 was Tan. But I guess they weren't really a big hit till 2011. Probably because of 4WD Owner's lol.

Nice find! Like I said I can never remember to go look for them when I'm at the store. So I just pay the extra couple of bucks and let someone else do the work for me lol.

What to raise them right!

It's kind of funny growing up my younger brother had a TON of these little model cars. It's all he ever wanted. I think when he gave up he had over 500. One day he just lost interest in them. My parents thought he was going to be the gearhead.

Now he's a Stress engineer and I'm the gearhead who builds airplanes lol.

I cannot find the Tan Runner anywhere! I have the red and blue ones though...that stupid Prius stays on the shelf apparently though. I find a ton...they get me excited because I see the Toyota part on the box and inspect to find a runner but nope. I have come across a hand full of red Runners...and also the blue Runner can be find in some of the sets that come with like eight cars as well as single.

Found the FJ40 in a 5 pack at Wally World. No 4Runner though. Also found a "Jada Toys" lifted Tundra that looks pretty cool.
