Hot Wheels N, P and Q case

As mentioned before, New Zealand distribution of Hot Wheels has been shit for 2015 - smaller stores like Kmart and Toyworld have been my go to source for new cases but at only one case per shipment there is not much chance to get a super and the largest retailer is stick in a time wrap with parallel and regular G case cars on the pegs. So when an offer came from Australia to trade for a Greenlight Green Machine I asked what they had at retail over there ...

With long card Q case being the answer, I sent back a wish list and within a few days I had the majority of the wish list secured and once a trade was worked out, parcels were sent. A few days later, one very well wrapped parcel arrived and behold ...

With the exception of a few doubles (and of course Super Treasure Hunts), my wish list for 2015 was secured and I can now focus on how to proceed with collecting 2016 Hot Wheels - when they arrive in New Zealand in 2017 or 2018.

Oh, there was also one extra car in the parcel ...

Yep, one Q case Super Treasure Hunt was also sent across in the parcel and from what I understand was one of a few that the trader managed to find while going through boxes of new cars looking for items from the wish list. 9 down and 6 more to go for the year.
