New cars. A new dollar store opened up nearby, and just like the last time one did, I found a TH staring me right in the eyes on my first time in the store.

That's now the second one I have, not bragging. And before any of you ask, I'm not ready to sell just yet. Notice the word "yet." ;)
 
Japan Booster just let me know that they are sending me the Bayside Motors Car Dealership from TLV when it comes out next month. It is in those preview pics on 829 Japan. I am going to enjoy taking some pics of models on that set.
AmiAmi actually still have the older sets like my Shell/Idemitsu gas station available on backorder. I think they also show the parking lot & used car lot as well. Too bad the police station's long gone.
@a6m5 - Really want the Beetle and Squareback :Drool:.
I've been wanting that Squareback for awhile, even though I liked it mostly for its gold rims. I was "this" close to paying for shipping & ordering it online, but the new Walmart store did help me out here. :D Beetle, it was just too good of a deal to pass up. It was $12 & change, shipped. 👍
Dude. Kyosho's M1 will make you dislike the giant wheel on the Hot Wheels' M1. It did that to me.
Two toy cars, modeled after same car, but they couldn't be more different. :crazy:
Your words, not mine buddy. :P
:crazy:
 
The large rear wheels doesn't look so bad on like... a modern Camaro, but oh my god, the M1 is the worst...









...second to the Agera of course.

Nice stuff. Particularly the Matchbox GMC pickup, hadn't seen that one before. Very cool. 👍

That is a shame. Your Tomica town will never be complete now.

:lol:
 
My M2 Raw chase car has just under 30 minutes to go, it's currently at $107. :D

Edit: And that's where it stopped. Oh well, after shipping and original costs I made about $90 off it.

I think I have convinced Japan Booster to list all the dioramas. Stay tuned.

There is no Tomica Town!

:lol:
1:64 acrylic display cases, like with singular M2's.

Anyone know a cheap place online for them?
I throw them away. Routinely(I store many loose). :lol:
Has anyone seen the latest release of the hot wheels fast and furious cars near them? Need help locating a car.
I doubt I even know what they look like. :crazy:

Great news man! 👍

While I'm no longer in the market, the market will love JB for it. They are cool, man. They are COOL! :D:tup:
Believe @AOS- has a bunch of them for all his loose stuff. Forget where he gets them from though. I can only find the blister card protectors online.
I think what yabi's after are those hard display cases some M2's come in. With M2, or Hot Wheels collectibles, cars are screwed onto the black plastic base, and clear plastic cover snaps onto the base. AutoWorld has similar cases, but cars are not secured onto the black base.

I know Andy buys soft plastic(blister type) type for storage, but not the M2 style.
If you are feeling like an 🤬 this evening, you could email thea link to BRE...... I'm pretty sure he's not authorized to use BRE trademark.

:P

Helpful, but incorrect unfortunately. I've got little plastic cases with holes to fit on retail store pegs. the M2 acrylic cases are the display cases with a base and acrylic cover.

As for the answer, @dabiggoose:
