model of the year, Speed trapper!!! So glad to see trailers in the singles, looking forward to more!

[@JohnSTF72]

We actually got the 2017 K case in our local supermarket and two shops (in South Europe). It's the one with the pink Chevy Avalanche among other castings. Love the Datsun 510 Rally (and i like the disc wheels better btw). Nice Tesla Model S, 2016 Chevy Camaro Convertible and 68 'lifted' Ford Mustang. Can't wait to see what Matchbox has in store for 2018.

[@ronnysgames9625]

Yeah, I'm on the hunt for the Speed Trap. Unique model...love it.

[@THEGOLDENCAR]

I really hope the hub/disc wheels come out and aren't super rare. The 510 looks much better with them than the 6 spokes in my opinion.

[@KMW-ve6od]

THEGOLDENCAR can you deli

[@nascargas]

In answer to your question on the Firebird Screaming Chicken. Bill Mitchell was against the big bird...but was wooed when his designers put a gold bird on a black 73 Firebird to match his bike. Within days, 3 '72 models wound up with birds to convince the brass to sell the graphics for $53 a pop to buyers who wanted them. These would become standard with the 77 - 81 models as Bandit Specials and basic Trans Ams. The bird itself however dates back to the late 50s with the original Firebird Concept Car. It was however never offered on the 71 Formula.

I am in Australia. The M case was in my local Big W store. The Datsun 510 had the JCCS wheels aka hub wheels. I have found both variants in Australia. It was not marked as a JCCS.

[@longtailgt]

Taking into account what you said at the end, if these are indeed the "early cases" and that more later ones are yet to come then I would say that the disk wheel 510 should show up eventually. But in what sort of numbers I definitely don't know. Or maybe they won't show up in the 2017 cases at all and get carried over into the first case of 2018. I've seen a few cars showing up in more than 2 cases so that could be a possibility.

[@electrichellion5946]

The only ‘70 Datsun Rally car I’ve seen in the wild and did buy is marked with K34 and has the disc type wheel. Looks like a dog dish style wheel to me. Cool little car.

[@90cabby]

Okay, I watched to the end in the geek out section. Went and checked my Datsun stash, only lucky enough to score three, all are 6 spoke wheels and the codes on the bottom are one of each, K30,K31, and K33. I sure hope to find the dish wheels soon, but will probably make one with minilte wheels which is what I have seen most of the real rally cars wearing, so in that realm, MB did okay to put the 6 spokes on for realism in the $1 market, but they could have done it in white instead, like the Brat. Dish wheels do work best on the old school castings most of he time though.

[@stephanienicks5043]

Hey Thelamleygroup what do you think will be the first thing to come out in 2018?

[@AlbayDiecaster]

got also 6 spokes datsun 510. i think the disc is more fitted with the datsun as it looks cool and more vintage

[@ezrablasing]

I love me some geeking out! I have a feeling those were JCCS 510’s. Hmm.. I really hope we see 2018 A with a few disc rim 510’s.

[@RicQuintanilla]

Im guessing that MBX produced them, stacked them up, then started to pull off the top of the "pile " to fill cases. So maybe the last ones to come out, might be the first ones made!?@? Just my guess. No FIFO at MBX...

[@joseflores5430]

Can you tell me if I landed a rare blue variation Nissan 2000 with the racing seat. I have the grey version with the racing seat. Thanks

[@pzivg43]

If it wasn't for Cvs and Rite aid I wouldn't be able to get any matchbox cars. The Wal-Mart in my area hasn't put a new case out for months. Target doesn't carry them anymore. I don't know what's going on with the distribution.

[@littleolme63]

the2017 Baja Bandit is number 104 and is a dune buggy, that is the Baja Bullet so I consider that an error

[@henrybertolette2496]

FINE

[@GuitardedAndBroke]

Hubs all day!!

[@taylor7772]

You know where can I find that Nissan junior?

[@archie_cj_gaming2624]

How much does the case cost?

[@ecf766]

2 months latet and no camaro in NY. I checked in 10 different stores. Nothing!

[@JohnAllen-wn5dg]

[@axelnsigarcia8594]

I just got today The Disc rims variation here In México City with K23 on The base.

[@n7tunnels]

That Rally Datsun doesn't look quite right with those 6 spoke wheels. Matchbox should have used the steel wheels like they did on the 2nd release of the 2015 Mazda Miata/MX5. Possibly paint the hubs in gold or white for an old-skool look or simply leave them in unpainted black.

[@DetroitNerd]

Hey Matchbox fans, go to toyhalloffame.org and vote for Matchbox to be inducted into the National Toy hall of fame.

[@NMAfreak]

Pink Avalanche, if you don't make something that ugly for the dealerships (as it wouldn't sell), don't make it on the replica 1:64

[@DiamondTheNerd]

I like the disk wheels

[@hotwheelsandwwe2790]

5:20 I really want that MBX RV..

[@gbrfan6644]

It is really cool

[@diegofriend4527]

[@rtking1969]

The screaming chicken was on the Trans-Am

[@THEGOLDENCAR]

[@jg24diecast41]

Wasn't '73 the first year it appeared on the hood?

[@rtking1969]
