Hot Wheels Employee Forbes Collection Shock Factor from Larry Wood

Description: PLEASE see shipping info before bidding...PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! ITEM: Offered at NO RESERVE is a special piece from the Larry Wood collection. Not sure if there are any differences from the released version. Final bid will determine the value. All cars pictured are included in this auction. Unless noted everything I sell is MINT or Near Mint, never played with and 100% original. Additional photos and information are available. Don’t miss this very rare and special piece of Hot Wheels History! Everything I sell is comes directly from my personal collection(s) and is carefully maintained in a climate controlled environment free of smoke and all other damaging hazards. NOTE: I reserve the right to decline the sale if there is an error in this listing either by me, eBay and or any other source or cause. HISTORY: I am a long time Hot Wheels prototype collector with an active collecting history dating back to the early 80's. I have spent the last 25-30 years collecting the highest quality investment cars with specific concentration on rare employee, proto, pre-production and prototype castings. I have purchased cars from many well known sources and in 2001 I was able to acquire the personal collection of long time Mattel employee and department manager Bruce Baur. Bruce was a prolific designer with more than 20 years at Mattel and is credited with some of the most iconic Hot Wheels castings of all time. Designs include: Baur's Beasts, Way 2 Fast, Rigor Motor, Guitar Car, Twin Mill II, Power Pipes and many more. Bruce was also a leader and prolific designer and contributor to the 100% Hot Wheels Collectible Line. ABOUT ME: My name is Rob Forbes and this item(s) is from my personal collection. I am a long time collector of many things, coins, shark teeth, toys, Hot Wheels, art, marbles and many other cool things. I have been a member of eBay since 1997 (26 years!) I was a member BEFORE you could even use photos so please take comfort knowing you are buying for a reputable seller of the highest integrity and a very long history. Find me on Facebook! TERMINOLOGY: All sorts of "key" words are used and perhaps over used to describe collectible items these days. I use the terms that I think are appropriate for what I am listing. I am NOT an expert of anything. Please view photos and ask questions if you have them. For Hot Wheels specifically: "Barbie components", "Barbie plastic", "pink Barbie" and "Barbie skins" among other terms typically refer to the blue, pink, and sometime green plastic used in the pre-production process. All of these terms originated from the "pink Barbie plastic" because it is speculated that Mattel uses the same plastic in prototype Hot Wheels as they do in the actual production of the Barbie doll. Please check my other auctions as I will be listing many of the "cool" things and many more very RARE Hot Wheels that I have collected over the years. SOLD AS IS: Please, please, PLEASE I beg of you - read all descriptions carefully and ask any questions prior to bidding. SHIPPING: USPS Shipping fees have increased! The shipping fees reflect that this item will be shipped via USPS Priority with special care. If you do not have patience to wait I understand but bidding on my items may not be for you. I am self employed which means I work 7 days a week and mostly 12+ hrs per day so there may (and will be) be some delay(s) in shipment now and then. That said, my colleagues, friends and fellow collectors who know me will tell you that I always work hard to please anyone who buys from me. All items are shipped via USPS Priority. Yes, I do combine shipping! If you win more than one auction I will send you a revised invoice with combined shipping costs. Due to past issues with cost, tracking and confirmation, I will ONLY ship outside of the US through eBay's Global Shipping Program. No Exceptions. Sorry.
