There's a surprisingly large supply of new old stock hotwheels cars at places like Target, walmart, and CVS. I picked up a few from the early 1980's the other day for $1.29 each or so. I do like that they're on average a little sturdier with more metal. That said I also have a large supply of 1970's hotwheels and I have to disagree that they're better made, at least in my experience. Most are falling apart and roll poorly due to what I'd call pretty normal play when I was a kid. The quality of modern hotwheels cars seems to vary pretty wildly by which car series you're buying. I wonder if the "cars" series cars are lower quality than say the color shifters or the circuit legends series (possibly to build in more profit margin for the licensing fees?).
