The Hunt 11/15

Illustration for article titled The Hunt 11/15

With SN210 briefly away from the site, I thought I’d attempt to cover for his venerable “The Hunt” series. This is a list of what other members are looking to add to their collection. Many of these models are new releases, or harder to find, some older models, and even a few unlikely longshots. To my knowledge not a lot of Toy Fair Exclusives or sealed original redlines have changed hands over the last few years via HWEP, but it never hurts to try. If you have something to trade that you see someone else is looking for, put it in the comments.

Since I’m essentially using Scott’s last the Hunt post as a rough template, I’m sure a lot of info is out of date and/or your desires for certain diecasts may have changed considerably. (Certainly mine have!) Let me know what you’ve found, what you no longer want, and of course what you are hunting for, so we can get everything updated.

Most of you are probably familiar with our trading program and the basics are very simple. There are quite a few new members lately, however, so be sure to review the official rule book for the Hot Wheels Exchange Program (HWEP) if you have any questions before engaging in trades.

Because wants have changed, some of these users are no longer active on the site, and others have only recently joined and haven’t been included yet, I’m going to keep the names in normal text until I hear from the user and update their list. Once that happens, I will change the username to BOLD so you know that person is still participating and their list is current. This may take awhile, so please be patient. As SN210 put it in his last Hunt post ‘Work with me here.’
