I was able to pick up fully restored versions of the interceptor and mobile on eBay a few years ago. They are in terrific shape and look almost new. The Ed Straker car is harder to come by. A restored version, or one that is near mint condition, will set you back almost $400 which is a little steep for a Dinky toy.

Man, I miss Dinky.
