Check out Tescos and Asda toy section, you should be able to pick one or two up there as Mattel tend to include a few in each box-Ive got quite a few spare if youre desperate you can have I at cost price plus a little p+p, got long and short card versions. PM me if you need one, dont be afraid to push past the kids routing through the Hotwheels box, I came away with 5 BTTfs and 3 silver black stripes! 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) Only £1.20 each!

Had the same idea myself-got 31 bttfs,19 silver/black stripes and 9 black DMCs (these dont seem very popular), just cant help buying one or two when in Tescos! There is a rumour in Hotwheels 'circles' that Mattel may bring out a bttf 3 railroad version as it seems this line is extremely popular and the bttf version was developed quite easily from the original silver version which is now getting rare along with the gold version (of which I have 5!) 8)

Nice one for the kids mate! Also worth pointing out is that Hotwheels have released their version of the A-Team GMC van and the Knightrider Pontiac Transam for the 2011 collection-I was in Bangkok last year and Singapore this year, scoured loads of toy shops and Toysrus and found absolutely no sign of these 2 elusive cars! Top marks to anyone who can find one-or two, or even three........... 8)

I found one in the local OneStop store in my own village on Friday! Couldn't believe it. (Silver one with black side stripes and gold wheels) Cost £1.15 so a little more expensive than other places.

My 1:1 scale model was parked up outside to the amazement of the cashier

I had a similar experience in my local Tescos-2 guys were admiring ol' stainless as I was walking back out and after the usual chat I showed them 2 DMCs that I had just bought, and they didnt believe that Hotwheels made DMC models-just rubbishy non descript small cars! 8)

I got the black on an admittedly a tatty card last week in our local Asda for £1
(it was the only DMC they had), and Phill picked up a BTTF version and a silver
with black stripes at one of the Asda's in Leicester the next day.

Is it just the gold one we're missing now?

Might go and have a look in the big Tesco not far from here and see what they've
got left

When you go there, head for the toys section and look for the Hotwheels display box-the top is normally full of cars, note how its 3ft or so off the ground so the little blighters cant see whats up there! Check out the cereal,chocolate, crisps and fizzy drinks aisles for the strips that hold long card versions up-good hunting! (dont be embarrassed to spend a good few minutes routing through, it may well be worth the effort).
If youre unsucessful, I'm bringing a box full of DMCs to Tatton for sale, got tons of BTTFs,silver/black stripes and black ones. Morrisons are normally quite good too. 8)

[Guinney1971]

ah, good stuff, I'm going to Morrisons tomorrow to do the weekly shop

[frostrobo]

Picked up the BTTF one at my local OneStop last night, to go with the standard one I got a few weeks ago from the same village store

Shopping can be rewarding at times! 8)

we were in France last week, and we were in Auchan near the Loire town of
Blois and found the only Hotwheels DMC in there, a black one on short card.

It was €1,79 so dearer then Asda, but I couldnt miss up an opportunity like that
