Picked up a spare 6" BS Clone today to attempt a Clone Wars Obi Wan custom from Farmers on Cuba Street...and spotted some Hot Wheels Star Wars cars.

Was unsure if they'd already been spotted or not, or already posted up previously, and didn't think to take a pic of them, let alone remember exactly which ones they were, but they looked similar to the following...

...don't quote me on those exact images...they just looked like them.

Anyone want too check them out, they're in one of the impulse bar bins right next to the check out in the toy section, Farmers - Cuba Street.

Saw those movie Hot Wheel inspired cars at Lower Hutt Farmers as well. Not really that great looking, however I did also see the character cars which looked pretty cool. Don't know if I will cave and get them yet but will wait and see what shows up. They had Yoda, Tuskan and 501st Clone of which only the Tuskan really impressed me.

Nope, I don't think we've had many reports of the Hot Wheels just yet. Will have to check out the Farmers stores local to here.

Anyone keen...new 6" BS are on Mighty Ape right now.

Vader
Chewie
Sandtrooper
Jedi Luke

$39.99 each.

Kinda keen...but the last Boba I got from them wasn't packed too nicely...

They can't be too far away from Farmers though...and I'd rather get them from there anyway.
