I went to the auction preview party and it turns out that some hot wheels employees snagged up cars they weren't supposed to.
I was one of the few people that had to drool over some else's car because of that.
My name and address were written down and I was told that as soon as they got back to "the office" on monday, they would send it out.

Question about the HWC Convention Cars

feeds@yuku.com (BURBADUDE) — Fri, 04 Oct 2002 23:13:21 GMT

Diane -

I wasn't able to attend the Convention on Friday after registering on Thursday. Will I still be able to buy the Chevelle, T-Bucket and 1/18th Bus on Saturday from the HWC area at the convention?

What are the quantity limits for these for Convention Ticket Holders?

Do you know the sales hours for Saturday?

Any information would be appreciated, had a great time on Thursday, got to go to the dinner too!

DIANE. WHAT'S THE PRODUCTION RUN OF THE '98 CONV ZAMAC SET?

feeds@yuku.com (oggiedoggie) — Mon, 23 Sep 2002 16:16:52 GMT

I noticed a lot of people at Buena Park didn't buy these 25 cars because it was rumored to be a 5,000 run. But since then, I have heard that the run # is only 500. Can you please verify either of these numbers? Thanks in advance, John

Thanks For the pics Diane

feeds@yuku.com (CrazyCanuck1) — Sun, 22 Sep 2002 08:09:13 GMT

The pictures of the Convention cars look great. I can hardly wait to get them. We leave Friday for California.

I was having a really hard time trying to figure out what car or cars to offer for current and new members of The Toy Peddler, that will be attending the convention. I also wanted to have something nice to giveaway online, so, I have decided to have multiple giveaways for October.
First, for any Verified member, or new to register member attending the convention, all you have to do is stop by my room or table at the convention and enter. It's free. And here is what I will give away...

Diane. This isn't normal????

feeds@yuku.com (oggiedoggie) — Mon, 16 Sep 2002 14:54:07 GMT

This is the first year that I can remember not seeing pictures of the convention cars by now. With only 2 weeks to go, I am hoping that everything is fine with the production. Any info on when we might see photos of the Motorhome and the Shoebox?

Hi Diane. I am writing because my check was cashed for $100 for the dinner, but I didn't get a slip in my convention packet.

I have been trying to phone Michael for the past couple of nights but the line has been busy. My name is Tony G*** and my ticket confirmation # is ***. Please let me know if we can correct this or how we go about it. I can send the canceled check if that helps. Thanks, Tony

Bingo??

feeds@yuku.com (redlinin00si) — Thu, 12 Sep 2002 06:16:21 GMT

I know that the Bingo cards are $25 each. The cards are reusable continously, right? Never played the bingo and was just curious as my girlfriend wants to give it a try. Also is there any clue on how prizes(cars) will be distributed for the bingo. Thanks in advance.

56 Ford Truck 16th Convention

feeds@yuku.com (hwace4me) — Mon, 09 Sep 2002 22:57:45 GMT

I noticed in the Convention packet under Miq WillmOtt that they mention his best work being the 56 Ford Truck for the 16th Convention. I haven't heard of this yet. I know of the 32' Ford, Shoe Box, GMC Motorhome and charity 40's Ford but not this one. Is this a typo or a hint of one of the secret cars? Just curious. Thanks for any info Diane.

Question about buying convention cars.

feeds@yuku.com (powder8000) — Sun, 08 Sep 2002 18:32:09 GMT

Hi Diane,

This is my first convention. I read the packet about the sells cards or whatever they are called to purchase the convention cars. My question is will holders of a childrens ticket be able to buy the cars or will it be for adult tickets only? Thanks in advance. By the way love the Newsletter Merc. Got it Friday.
