2000GTP 02-14-2007, 08:28 PM I was at the Chicago Auto Show today and was at one of the vendor booths will all the diecast cars. I noticed they were selling two more versions of the Camaro Concept, which poking around the Jada site, turned up this:

The only thing preventing me from buying them today was the tacky, oversized rims that are typical of most the Jada cars.
EllwynX 02-14-2007, 10:00 PM Yeah, I like the wheels on the actual concept, but those are WAY too big on those toys.
CAMAROJOE 02-15-2007, 11:11 AM I saw both of them in walmart yesterday. I already have the silver one, so didn't buy either.

That's the trend now, not only for toy cars, but real cars too. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I know. I am a pretty die-hard collector of the 1/18 scale diecasts... Several years ago, you could go to K-Mart, Wal-Mart, or Toys R Us and find a huge selection of authentic looking muscle cars. Now everything seems to be centered around the "dub wheels" market which definitely is not my preference.

I agree with you there.
OctaneZ28 02-15-2007, 02:02 PM Yeah I saw stacks of them at the show too.
I considered buying 1 or 2 there, but they're charging about TWICE what you can get them online for.
Mr. Wolf 02-15-2007, 02:05 PM yea i bought the silver and the black with red stripes at the Houston Auto Show, just to have a Concept Diecast. I ignore the wheels

I would like to have the complete set of 4, but I just can't get beyond the wheels so I will just stick with the solid red and silver. The other thing that aggravates me is they released two more colors for the Dodge Challenger concept, yellow and silver, on top of the orange. I'm just sticking with the orange one, I'm not spending another 30 bucks a car to get each color of the Challenger concept. I haven't even seen the real Challenger concept in any color besides orange anyhow.:mad:
Mr. Wolf 02-15-2007, 03:33 PM well your luck to have seen the Challenger in person, the f*ckers at Mopar haven't brought it to houston yet.
2000GTP 02-15-2007, 03:37 PM well your luck to have seen the Challenger in person, the f*ckers at Mopar haven't brought it to houston yet.
Thats too bad. I saw it at last years auto show in Chicago. They didn't have it there this year. Come to think of it, Dodge didn't really have anything there that was very bold or exciting this year.
chevyfreak1822003 02-15-2007, 04:58 PM i want to get the black and red i already have a red model and remote controll but i think the black and red would be a great adition. I Just inore the big wheels.
AZ2ENVY 02-16-2007, 03:58 PM I have all 1:18 scale diecasts for the concept :D

In that thread of yours you mention there is 15 versions of the Camaro concept? I only knew of the 4, do you have a link to the others or was that a typo?

Oh okay, gotcha. I didn't realize there were so many variations out there.
Brangeta 02-17-2007, 05:21 PM I don't like the wheels being so huge... it looks nice in black though. If they make one in red with silver stripes, I'll buy it and have 5th gen versions of my current cars :lol:
Brangeta 02-17-2007, 05:28 PM Hey, I found a few more on the site:

I noticed two Iroc-Z Camaros on there as well. I hope they make some 4th gens. I've been dying for a '93-'96 Z28 Coupe to add to my collection

That police car looks pretty cool. It looks like I will have to pay a visit to my local diecast store and see if they have one in stock.
