Hot Wheels #Chase pieces have become synonymous with unnumbered series releases as evidenced by the other chase pieces in the other themed assortments as of late. There have been no shortage in supply in these chase pieces and profiteers that snatch up every single one from a dump bin are left with stale stock after the initial craze wears off. Buyers are becoming better aware of how plentiful these releases are as well, so that has helped keep prices down after the “gotta-have-it-nows” get their fix.
With that said, I was caught by surprise when I found a relatively fresh dump bin last month containing the latest #Walmart Exclusive, #FORZA Motorsport Series (2017). I know someone else had been through these because the universal sign of another collector was there — several of the #Chase pieces were hanging on the Walmart price-point sign, above the dump bin. For that unknown collector, I thank you, as I was extremely excited to pick up this #Ford Falcon Race Car. For the next collector, I hope you enjoyed all the ones I left behind.

Sadly Ford have closed their manufacturing plant in Australia so no more Falcons… the 2016 FGX was the last of ‘em. Here’s what I did to mine: https://instagram.com/p/BVolgxZFecD/
I didn’t know that. Well, at least you still get the Hot Wheels Falcons.
This series hasn’t even made it to retail in Australia. It’s ridiculous, you’d think retailers would jump at this. Would love to have this in my collection 😦
Sorry to hear. I was under the impression that this series showed up there prior to its release date here in the U.S.
Yeah seems like it showed up in every other country (even NZ) but it still hasn’t made it down here.
