He offered to sell me a set.

I would love to know the next case assortment on these. Funny how NASA truck was leaked early but not in this case. Hopefully 2-3 new cars on the next case……

Ooooooooooo, verry tempting! Looks like I'll have to spend my money on power tools, drywall, and flagstone though 🙁 Enjoy the new (flying) Cars, BMW!

As for the NASCA Truck, that car was leaked from China while these cases were made in Thailand. Maybe it is something totally separate? BMW, what do you think, you're the historian here. Smile

Well, I heard they are just going back to Thailand to help with demand and how China's prices are going up (probably why the Autonauts are only going to be $6, cuz Thailand can make them cheaper), but they are still making Cars in China. I bet if those Autonauts were made in China, we would have seen them on e-Bay over a month ago!

Its a good question because the Queen, Kimura, and Funny Car Mater are all from China's AZ factory. Deluxes previous to these have all been from the AZ factory.

These Take Flight are from the A2 Factory in Thailand, and in deluxe packaging.

As for the leaked NASCA truck out of China clearly it must be a Chinese made truck so is Mattel running production for new deluxes in 2 factories to catch up for the Christmas season releases.
