That’s the same story I heard. I’ve been away from Cougar stuff for long enough that I very well could have missed news of a reissue. At least there are a few die casts available for the '67 and '68’s.
I have bought a couple things from this guy, and get daily emails. The inventory is always different and it’s rare that he has Cougars but always fun to see the daily mail.

There are so many good options for cars; Hot Wheels, Sun Star, TFC, Dinky, M2 Machines, etc.
It is neat to see everyone’s collections.
Nice collection Gavin!
Nice, I’ve never heard of TFC before. Are those 1/43 scale.
Very cool collection Gavin.

My wife used to order directly from Yat Ming, but as of 2010, their site went down. Too bad, even though the shipping took FOREVER, the prices were terrific and they had a great selection of 1/18 diecast cars.
It’s a CHEVROLET COUGAR!

Almost 75 in one photo not including dups. I can’t believe the 30th anniversary set is almost 20 years old.
You guys have a LOT of kittens! What’ll you do when they all grow up?
Looks like I wasn’t the only one to see that…they have corrected it now. I wish I still had my old slot car set to drive the Cougars all winter long INDOORS!
FYI, This was a $20.00 slot car when Auto World had them in stock. I have one. they have this one still for $19.99

They HAD one…I own it now!
Ran out of aluminum foil so ran over to Target and figured I’d check the toy isle and what do you know. They had six of these!
I can’t walk past the Hot Wheels aisle without looking.
You did buy all 6 of them didn’t you!?
I’ve been watching one of those on EBay, but I can’t get myself to pay the $26 they want for it
I paid more than I expected I would for a Hot Wheels, but when this one popped up with no packaging on eBay. It was $8 shipped. The ones still on the cards are just crazy prices!
Then I’m happy I get a couple when they came out. It is one of my favorite of that size Cougars I have.
