    A coworker and I made a mad dash to the Mattel outlet for lunch today just to see what they had. They have quite a few black Enzo's for about $14, and a bunch of red Stradales for $18. They also had the white 360 Whip and another blinged 360 in red and white that I'd never seen before, but wouldn't buy. Very few F1's unless you like the Mercedes. Be sure to sign up for the 10% off membership card, it's free.

    We ran into Will H there, then had some great Mexican food for lunch.

    North side of Fort Worth, just Southwest of the I-35/820 intersection. You should be able to find it on the web, I don't know the address, I just know where it is. Exit Blue Mound off of 820, turn South. Cross the railroad tracks, then right at the next stop light. Follow the signs. It's in a warehouse district, you'll think you're lost.

    If you go to the Mattel outlet in Laredo you tend to find a larger variety and lower prices.

    It was good to see Jim & his friend up there, I try to go there once a week to see whats new but the inventory is always changing on a daily basis. They also have Manager's specials on Thurdays so I'm hoping those 360 whips & CS will be discounted to $7.99. Also, if anyone likes good Mexican food I highly recommend a place right around the corner, just keep in mind its cash only.

    Fcar stuff -- cheap 1/18 red 355 Spiders, less than $15

    Various Ferrari branded Hot Wheel track sets. Strange cars, though, not truly Ferrari models

    A LOT of Pixar Cars toys. I picked up a Luigi and (forklift) package.

    Thanks, T...

    Will called last week, said the current Ferrari Barbies are there...we are waiting to see them roll back a little more from $79. Retail was $130.

    Help me watch and bag a couple when they drop to close out!
    Current quantity +/- 75 -80 units.......let me know when they become sellouts.

    Brunette with a coat and pullbag, that's Ms. 2006.

    I NEVER found the blond Ms. 2005, she was packaged with a 360 Spyder.
    Street clothes with luggage as well, hard to believe it was Factory Store ONLY.

    Thanks
