At last Speed Racer has made a BIG SPLASH at Wal-Mart retail stores! Mattel/Hot Wheels has gone all out with loads of Speed Racer The Movie toys!
They've got a Speed Racer section filled with cars from the movie 1:64 scale sets, RC cars, Speed's helmet, Mach 5 steering wheel, pull-back cars, and 1:18 scale cars. The cars consist of: the new Mach 5, the Mach 6, the Mach 4, the "Shooting Star", and the GRX and there's even a transport trailer with Mach 5 included. More cars are on the way: Kabala's car, Snake Oiler's car, etc. There are also sets of posable characters: Speed with the Mach 5 and Racer X with the "Shooting Star".
If you collect Speed Racer toys, the green flag's waving, --- Go! Go! Go! (So many to choose from, and the best selection is available now!)
Go! Speed Racer! Go! eperez

I forgot to mention they also have new "Classic" Speed Racer posters too!
I'll be heading back there again to try to find the Musha, Kabala, GRX and new Racer X "Shooting Star" 1:64 scale cars. I put "Shooting Star" in quotation marks because Hot Wheels actually calls it the "Racer X" car, weird huh? You'd think someone at Mattel would know the name of Racer X's car, right?

Picked up 5 more 1:64 scale cars today. Rather than being in a set of 4 they were packaged individually for less than $2 each.
These were the ones I got this time around: New Shooting Star, GRX, Snake Oiler, Musha, and Gray Ghost. I was a bit too rushed to find the Kabala one but it must be there somewhere.

Got the Prince Kabala car. If you want the Mach 4, Mach 5 and Mach 6 in metallic 1:64 scale they have them in a three-pack at Target stores.
