Need Help finding some Matchbox KJ's!

JJsTJ · **Posted:** Mon Feb 06, 2006 11:09 pm

Maybe a strange request, but I am working on something for Moab 06 or 07 (if I can't pull it off this year).
I Need as many MATCHBOX JEEP LIBERTY's as I can get. Right now, there is a new version out that is on a orange/yellow card with Jeep Liberty along the right side. The Liberty itself is olive green with mud splashes on side. (Pic coming soon)
You can find them in the Toy sections of most stores where they display the Hotwheels and Matchbox cars.

I will give purchase price plus postage if you can help me out. They only run $1 ea. I can also arrange to get them from you at some upcoming event (if local to Cali). Please let me know if you find any.

THANKS!
John :wink:

Looks like a TB to me!:D
I'll lookout for it. :shock:

I have a bunch of Libbies I bought off ebay (for way too much). :roll:

But I did the same thing with my Camaro. Ended up with about 90+ diff versions. :shock:

I'll post pics of the Libs I have already.

Sweet. Thanks & LMK what I owe ya when you ship.
Normally they are packed two per case if you get the correct case code. They are tough to find and I know Jeeps often get horded by collectors.

brpn#1, Are those black ones the Maisto brand ones? How many do you have left?

Hmm...never thought of that. But they will actually being used for another purpose.
Now if I lived cloer to Moab I could go set them up as a geocaching deal, but I'm a little too far away to set that up in advance.
