A Quickie - Hot Wheels Surf 'N Turf

Hot Wheels Surf 'N Turf

I've been slacking.  A huge backlog of cars to post, Hot Wheels, TLVs, GreenLight, M2, the usual suspects.  Today, a quickie for fellow collector yabiggoose on GTPlanet, who is also interested in this car.  

When I saw pic of this casting online, I knew I had to have it.  When I actually found some yesterday at Walmart, I had no idea how much awesomer this thing was in real life.  Let me share some pics:

I was disappointed by this Beetle.  Not by how it looks, but because of what I didn't get.  I have SO MANY GreenLight cars, but this happened to be my first VW Beetle!  I've seen their Beetles with opening hoods, so I've been looking forward to getting one.  I finally saw this diorama set I really liked, so I got it...... but this Beetle has no opening parts.  :(  Well, you can't win 'em all.  :D  Pics:

Looks like this van rear-ended somebody.  Somebody took a baseball bat to the rear glass, too.  lol

"Green Machine" are the green color themed GreenLight chase cars(like hot wheels treasure hunts).  This one looks very cool!

I don't know what it is about where I live.  I literally find more Hot Wheels Super Treasure Hunt cars than I can Matchbox Land Cruisers.  I had to get this one online!
