Met a new VX friend... who is in the market to buy

[Anita]

Today I had a great chance meeting with a fan of the VX. Not just any admirer, but someone who has had an "encounter" of sorts with them. I met a gentleman named Nathan who is Director, Worldwide Product Design of Mattels' HOTWHEELS. Many of us have Hotwheel VX's and here is one of the persons responsible for them.

After asking me lots of questions about my VX, he told me that he is in the market for one. Preferably a 2000-01 (loves Proton), with low miles. I invited him to check us out here and read up on the VX from the best source anywhere. If anyone is thinking of selling their VX to what I know will be a good home, email me with info, and I will pass it along to him. He may even come on the site and say hello.... I hope so!

He also mentioned that he could create a VX model for us, anyway we would like it, though we would have to guarantee a minimum order for the project to go. Just thought I would mention it.

That sounds like a great idea Anita....

I've been real interested in trying to find a metal model of the VX in the scale like the ones in The Sharper Image.

I collect the older Hotwheels with the redline tires from 1968-72 and the prototype models of those go for $$$.that is when and if the designer decides to sell/release them. They even have a bling series of hotwheels with oversize wheels and chopped tops. I'm in for a few if the price is right...maybe a few dozen.

I can just imagine getting everyone to agree on a model, although there's no black, green or white available, like the factory colors. We'd have to come up with something unique. CHROME with some kind of special edition markings?

I suppose I could ask him what are the options open to us. But I think that a minimum order for them is going to be in the thousands.
