Hey Mike, I got my last HW Manx in a set. I took out the Manx and gave the rest of the cars to a neiborhood boy. I dont have a red one. Looks like I'm going to Target tomorrow...

I gave my wife a small stash of the original purple ones to keep in her desk at work a while back - when clients come in with their kids and the kids see pics of my real Manx in her cubicle, they usually tell their parents they want one....and they get one of their very own.

My buddy calls it the 'Manx-a-wish foundation.'

As of this past weekend, all I have left to find now is one of the green 'Down & Dirty' ones to have all of the HW Manxes; my wife gave me the orange D&D one, and the red one is on the way(my birthday is the 18th, and my nephews is the 16th; we had our party a week early). On occasion, I'm glad I introduced her to Ebay. :rock:

I was looking at eBay today and saw two red ones, "loose", of course, probably the only way we'll ever be able to get the RED ones. You guys go for 'em, I can wait.
