   Thanks again for the heads up!

   I already had all the big ticket items in the collection, so I was able to focus on the smaller stuff. GREAT PRICES + FREE SHIPPING.

   I didn't see any Kyoshos though. Maybe there is a second wave coming. 😉

   I think the Kyosho are just marked 30% in the ads themselves. I didn't see a special section like Limited Vintage. Prices good.
   Most the Vintage were gone but I did snag 4 I didn't have already.

   Dear Dirk,

   An avid follower of Lamley and a collector of Matchbox and Hotwheels – we in England seem to get a very poor selection of what is made – there are few retailers, and those who do stock usually stock in low quantity with poor merchandising, and perhaps one foot width of display space. I only speak for my shopping experience across London and more lately in rural areas to the south of London, but it would not surprise me if this is the same experience across the UK.

   It seems that parts of the USA are spoilt for choice with generous merchandising space in Target, Walmart and others.

   In summary, I am sure I am not the only one to say that in the UK, we would love to see more of mainline Matchbox and Hotwheels displayed in stores, and for the first time to see premium lines such as Hotwheels Retro Entertainment, Metal on Metal and Real Riders, Boulevard etc. We simply don't get those.

   If there is anything you can do to suggest an increase in Matchbox's and Hotwheels's profile in the UK, I am sure there is a considerable market waiting, and lot of grateful prospective customers.

   All the best,

   Simon.
