Getting the Agera, at lunch today.
I asked you before, but do Walmart give you discount, or full retail price? If you prefer not to answer, you can just tell me. ;)
Don't know why the rear lights are bulging out like that, but it's set for a custom. Might swap in HW wheels for this.
I think it looks great with the exception of the front end. I really would love to see TLV tackle this car. Don't get me wrong, Kyosho's awesome, but but I never ordered one due to that area inside the front grille. Spacing & depth of everything inside it looks off, like it was put together by a toddler(probably was, in a sweat shop! j/k).

Looking at this, I suppose it would be tricky to recreate in 1/64 scale:

I don't have a discount card yet, I did get the Agera plus the NFS Mustang and a dodge charger police matchbox car. Pics will be up after I'm off work at 5pm.
 
Ah, of course. 👍 Alto would be a good pick, though if I were you, I'd get the white/older one first. It's not necessarily better looking than the red one, but I think it's bit rarer.

Yeah, actually looking at it again I think the White does look slightly nicer. Not nearly as good as your Silver one though, damn that looks cool. Looking forward to seeing some pics of it. 👍 (You are planning on taking some pictures, right? :P)

I did dig the silver. I saw one on eBay for something like $27, $28, contacted Japan Booster & he beat that price so I went for it. New red, or old white, I think you'll get a kick out of it. 👍 I'll have to link another car I picked up from him:

It's my third Mazda Familia Van. This one is "Mazda Service" car, I also have stock & the police car.
Looking forward to seeing some pics of it. 👍 (You are planning on taking some pictures, right? :P)
Only 2, or 3 hundred.
 
Wow, been a while since I posted on this forum. If anybody has some 1980's Hot Wheels or Matchbox Lesneys or Tomicas in very very poor condition, pm me plz. I'm making a junkyard diorama :D
 
Hmm, the tracking on my Japan Booster order says they will be here between the 5th and 12th. But they cleared customs and left LA at 10am today. Might get them the 3rd or 4th.
 
I'm going to hold you to that. :P
:lol:👍
That Familia van looks really great by the way, now you totally need to get the Nissan Service Bluebird to go with it. 👍
Don't worry, I've been looking. :D
Anyone need anything? :P
I don't know if you noticed, but you have couple of defective hot wheels in there. :P

Sad to say, I'm not seeing anything I need. Sorry. :crazy:

If I were you, I'd look in Goodwill-type stores.
 
That's a really nice blue. Great grab, Danriel. 👍

=========


So I'm going to clear out some of the nicer things I have. Does anyone want any of these?

Found out that I am working on K day but my shift is from 2 to 11pm so I might try and go in the morning before my shift starts. If that fails I'll go and try and get leftovers on Sunday cause I have it off.
 
Visited grandma's house last week, and she had a few old cars to take back, since the other boys had "outgrown" them. Two of them seemed to survive years of tourture, but I was happy to give to my son. The Matchbox Lamborghini LP500S is from 1985, and the Trans Am is probably from 1984.

Can do, will do. When can I expect funds by?

$6 like I paid for, Johnny. I bought it, took it out, photographed it, put it back in, and hid it in my totes ever since. Still mint condition. :)





Edit: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

$12.50 silver Kyosho SL65 is here. Take that, eBay sellers.
