Hey my 4 yo somehow magically actually likes to play with hotwheels! Her favorite thing is to tow them around -- do any of you have a tow truck you'd recommend I pick up for her for Christmas? One that's about scale, if possible, and can pull cars around
Matchbox had a really good one in the early 90's, I'm not sure if it's still made and there is a decent rollback in their truck series.
In reply to P3PPY :
Here are two:
Matchbox GMC Wrecker Parkhill Towing
I have this one. Its bigger but my kids used it with their cars:

Hot Wheels has a tow truck casing you can probably find out there that has many colors. It is called Heavy Butcher. Also they do have a flat bed truck called Fast Bed Hauler.
My wife and boys know I will always get Porsche Hot Wheels when I see them and they came home with 10 of the 911 keychain cars
Since I am building a Europa I was somehow drawn to this and felt compelled to buy it!

I honestly have not bought any for myself for a while but did completely forget to take pics of the roughly 25 ones I would have chosen but dumped into our miscellaneous angel tree gift section last week.
My son gave this one to me today:

Anyone looking to make a BIG score? 4,500 car collection for auction on BaT.
Since a lot of them are the same item, I'm wondering if the collector was compulsive or was looking to do a more curated sale in the future.

I grabbed one of those last night.

Ugh, honestly looks like he is offing his duplicates. Nothing valuable in the pics unless you collect certain castings.
Saw a few that I like at Walmart today.
I try not to buy the expensive ones anymore, but seeing as the Mk II is my favorite Supra, I couldn't resist.
Went to a diecast show today...
and traded the only STH I've ever found in the wild (mystery machine 8 years ago) for these two that better fit my collection
