Days of Thunder - Hardee's Toys

Did anybody collect all 4 of the Days of Thunder cars in the Hardee's kids meal, and the 4 cups that you got with the purchase of a Hardee's Value meal? Because my dad was a huge fan of the Days of Thunder movie, and he took us to Hardee's each time a new car or collector's cup was available. Take a look at this link to see what I am talking about:http://cgi.ebay.com/1990-Hardees-Days-Of-Thunder-Store-Display-4-Cars-4-Cup_W0QQitemZ120114126074QQihZ002QQcategoryZ2511QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem.

I don't have the Hardees toys but i do have 3 of the 5 Matchbox cars (#51 Exxon, #46 City Chevrolet, #46 Superflo)I've had since i was little (I was born a month or two after Days of Thunder was released) and I wish i had an Ebay account so i could by the the #18 Hardees and #51 Mello-Yello cars, Maybe even the transporters! But very eager collectors are making me nervous about finding them.

I only had the Russ Wheeler Hardee's car. BTW...my favorite car in the movie.

I actually do have all 4 of them. I was only 6 years old in 1990, but I have a Father obsessed with Nascar and I even saw the movie at that age, so I had to have them. Coles City Chevrolet was my favorite.

I remember that Hardee's promotion really well [commercials etc.], but I didn't participate [even though I'm a sucker for fast food/movie tie-ins!]. I've never been a big fan of Hardee's and I didn't see 'Days of thunder' that Summer. I caught it on HBO during the Summer of '91 though when they seemed to play it every other day, and my brother and I watched it like every time. I've never liked Nascar but I do like this movie.

’Cause there’s thunder in your heart... Every move is like lightning!
