I’ve always dreamt about owning a 69 Torino Talladega. Who said dreams don’t come true. Lol

Maisto's used to be fairly cheap at Costco, not anymore. Haven't seen one I wanted to buy, for a couple years.
I've seen the Chevelle there, but a few years ago, and not since, and never saw the Torino. That I would have bought!
That's a nice group purchase, Mike!
(A good friend that bled Ford blue had a 428 CJ powered Talladega, a real one, and I had a Q-code 69 CJ Ranchero. Fun truck, not fast as you'd think, lousy tow vehicle.)

The Chevelle has a price tag on it but not sure how old.

Bought a few Maisto's for around $12 at costco but I think they are $18 or $19 now. Even with Costco's discount.
Your $20 sticker looks old, but that was probably list price back then.
As for the others, I think I paid $60 for one model I wanted a few years ago.

The guy that I bought them from said he had over 200 of them that he was going to let go. The boxes aren’t in the best of shape but for the price I paid I’ll probably take them out of the boxes anyway.
I told him that I would take more when he was ready. Lol. Like @davek said just walk away.
Easier said than done.
 
That's a great deal!!
I got rid of about 60 or 70 of them a few houses ago. They took over a room!! LOL. I kept a few, I need to take a look. I'm an absolute minimalist compared to years ago. I asked and the first one to answer, got them, that goes for most of my stuff. My office is starting to get crowded again, because of my keeping busy projects. As the circle continues! LOL
 
That’s cool. A friend’s dad had a maroon one also. I thought the hood and fenders were so bad azz.
Sorry, I don't mean to sidetrack. Here's Terry's two. They have been sold three times since his passing but the last I heard, they are still together and owned by a fellow in Sweden.
