Re: Die-cast 67-72

I haven't seen any of the blue '67 or the stars & stripe '67s in any stores. I did find a stars & stripes at a swap meet for $3. On Easter weekend I had to pass up on a toy show I like to go to, because I had the whole family coming the next day and my daughter & grandson were here from CO. I mainly hoped to find a good GL to buy. I never saw this Hitch & Tow and I bet there would have been one there. I really like this one. Love the truck. The only other H & T I've bought is the yellow truck/flatbed, just to get that trailer and a decent Plain Jane truck example. I'm not really into buying these for the huge package they make. I realize the protectors GL puts all their stuff in is a good thing, except it makes them bulky and I can't get the truck out w/o destroying the packaging. I'm fine with a simple card/blister pack and I'll be responsible for keeping it protected. With that stuff I can buy two, one to take out (that I could return to package) and one to leave intact. I'm not going to buy two Hitch & Tows, those extra ones will fill a box up fast and put me in the poor house
