If we see them on E bay we know where they came from and how much they were. I would not pay over $25.

I folks. I found a source for the big plastic HHR toys that seem sold out everywhere. I got one today that the Detroit airport's GM gift store. They have several, along with some other cars in the same series. Just thought I'd let y'all know if you want one in the Detroit area. Black with yellow graphics.....mine will get painted white to match "Elvis". God Bless, Marc

They have not been available retail for a couple years now unless you got lucky to find one.
The GM store is in a airport where only where a limited amount of people could even get to them let alone see them unless they walked into the store.
This was just a lucky find some one abused by buying them up. I almost wished I had not posted the number now.
These might be even harder to find now since Wako Jako kicked off. With him singing on it would make it something his fans would want.
Mine should be here on Monday.

Is the lack of HHR "collectables" a GM Licensing issue?
I'm really not into this type of stuff, but I have to wonder why there are not any miniatures or collectables in the form of the HHR for those who are?
The HHR is a unique vehicle (just as the SSR, Prowler and PT Cruiser) and one would think that it would be a good candidate for this type of thing, as it would probably attract collectors. I've seen the latter 3 as well as "not so unique" vehicle forms that have multiple miniature representations of them in many formats. Could it be a licensing issue with GM in the case of the HHR?
(Those below were all over the internet when Googled; The SSR and PT are made by Maisto and the Prowler is made by Anson; No HHR collectablles anywhere on the planet)
