Well I've waited years and years for a Patrol model to come out. Much more fun than an oil change. And now the mini-Roadster has a companion.

Beautiful pictures. A number of us took pictures of the model over the Patrol, but your choice is unbeatable!

Our South American friends take their toys way more seriously than we do. They paint theirs to match their Patrol.

This is what appears to be another vendor. There is more detail on these models.

You could be waiting a while. I don't even remember the FirePatrols ever making that price.

It is ccheaper because the supply and demand went away after all the current Patrol owners, except one, have already bought one. i.e. no more demand.
And it is still in the Chevy 3100 box.

Price point on a Patrol die cast model?
Fluctuating with market, what times we live in
Fascinating

Ever been to a Hot Wheels convention?
I have but not on purpose but on travel layover at LAX Marriott. OMG!
Amazing the value we put on "things"

Was that $26 USD, or $26 AUD?

I'll give you $27 for it... ;)
