Man, I'm glad I got out of collecting Hot Wheels - it was getting way out of hand. I still buy new ones at Target when they come up with something cool, but I don't collect them per se anymore.

For the record, I have every single one of those Hot Wheels MR2s already, aside form the pink one.

There is one BLACK Hot Wheels MR2 that is super-ultra rare - that one usually goes for over $30 by itself on Ebay. I tried a few times to win one for a decent price, but then I gave up.

I have A couple of those Kung Fu Force MR2's myself.

Why do they always have to put some stupid graphics on them? I would much rather just have a plain red (or SMG) painted one.

The graphics (or "tampos" as we collectors say) can be polished off w/o damaging the paint. I saw someone auctioning an white MR2 Hot Wheels with the mesh wheels that had been stripped of its goofy graphics and it looked great.

BTW, if anyone wants any of those vintage MR2s (they're mostly from the early 90's), let me know. I've got a few of each I can sell you (sorry, they took me too long to find to give them out for free - 2 bucks or so each).

I'm pretty sure they're all in storage already (I'm moving in a couple months) but if they are, I'll let you know as soon as I dig them out after the move.

I have a good amount of those too, plus a lot of the Muscle Machines ones and other miscellaneous ones, including a Modifiers MR2 with a Bomex body kit and seats and stuff.
