Attention, all you toy car collectors out there.....

I was in Target today and, for some reason I happened to go down the aisle where the diecast cars are. I looked over at the Matchbox area and there they were---a blue metallic XC90 and a silver/gray C30, both well proportioned and nicely detailed. But wait, it gets even better. Behind one of them was a white Alfa GTA (the classic one from the 60s, also very well done, but with a chrome (?!?!) interior) so I bought all three for 97c each. Another pleasant surprise was the discovery that they are NOT made in China---they are from Thailand, a (more or less) free country, the last time I looked. Apparently there is also an Austin Healey in the series (I looked but didn't see one, or I would have gotten it too)---now if only they would make a 122 or a P1800.......
