Lowest price 850 I've ever seen (Hot Wheels)

[FireFox31]

I finally went on eBay and completed my Hot Wheels Volvo collection. I searched Walmart and Target relentlessly in Q4 2022 but never found the black or green 850 or 240, and I wasn't aware of the racing ones in 2020. I also have a few spares to try painting Nautic Blue to match my T5M and maybe to give to future buyers of my black and green V70s.

The 240 is back for 2023 in green, maybe another, and in "super treasure hunt" spectraflame green. I think that means there's one per case in the special color. It's got a little circle "TH" on its side. Yes, I'd love to have one. And for 2023, there's at least one stereotypical early 80's color of the Van, maybe two.

This is my full mini garage, including the 240, 850, Toyota Van, and W210 chassis Mercedes-Benz E430 wagon.

I was looking for a 142 GT Hot Wheels that was for sale but can't find it. There were also 2 x 850 wagons like your lower 2. They are selling for $3 US each.

I saw these two classy Volvos side by side at the grocery store today. The DeLorean was back a few rows so I posed it by the others. It was tough to not buy the DeLorean but I stuck to my rule that I can only buy models of cars I've owned. Some day I want a DeLorean, but I can only get the models once I have it.

I'm still looking for green 240 wagon that was released this year. I suspect that the releases for a year start showing up in stores in March of that year with new ones in the series coming out periodically until March of the next year. I think the 240 is just a later release which is why I didn't see it sooner.
