I still haven't seen Boulevard DeLoreans here yet. I am starting to think I won't. I may need to resort to ebay to get at least one for my collection.

Agreed, I've made multiple trips to the Walmarts and Targets in the area (which says something as there are few places on earth I hate more than those stores) and have found plenty of other Boulevard cars, but never a DeLorean. They're going for like $15 already!Quote:

Unfortunately, no. This was slotted as a Hot Wheels Collector Exclusive since the beginning. The DeLorean community was the first to know about this when I showed it at DCS a month ago. The Hot Wheels community just got the sneaks last week.Quote:

There are no plans for DeLoreans or Time Machines (at this time) for 2013. Not sure about 1/43 Elite or other scales (like 1/18). For sure 1/64 is done for now, it may pop up in/after 2014.Quote:

The Boulevard line was dropped half way into the run. The DMC was mid way into the line. Therefore, not all the ones planned to me made were made. There were other cars planned that did not make it the stores.
I used "1000" as an example. Please re-read my post. Actual numbers are for internal use. Runs like these are usually under 10,000, more than 1000. "1000" is just an easier number to explain the situation.
eBay is probably your best place to get it right now. Retail is about $3-5, if you can find one for about $7-10, I would get it and save yourself the headache of trying to find one.Quote:

Never saw the Delo but I did snag a few of the Tuckers, Ive always loved that car since I saw the movie, but I digest....back to Delo talk!Quote:

I've also been watching in my area for the Blvd DMCs...no luck at Target or Walmart. When they first came out I picked up two at $3 a piece from an online store. They are nicer than the original versions, but a non-collector would probably never notice aside from the rubber tires.
Just to let everyone here know a few days in advance.

Wow, 20 bucks is a lot to pay for gull wing doors. Then again I read that a substantial portion of R+D money went into the full size car's doors, so I guess in 1/64 scale it works out correct. :tongue:
Here in Colorado the Deloreans have been gone for about a yearish now. I have one gold Delorean 2 Back to the Future Deloreans and I have seen both the black and the silver Deloreans but don't have one. For other movie hot wheels I haven't seen any besides some batmobiles and a K.I.T.T Trans am. Never seen ecto-1 but I want to.
