1/64 Model Collectors Thread

After asking about it, I might just be going.

I think I got my cars the day after k day last year. I'm going to try and get all of the cars plus all of the real cars from the q case.

What is a Q case?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I got $20 to spend there for k day.
Look at racegrooves YouTube channel @Dagger311

The assortment of cars come out in mixes. Q is the mix of cars, and the case is the box the cars come in.

So, where are the vette, challenger, chevy pickup, and Aston at? And do they cost more?

They cost the regular hot wheels price in your area.

Monte Carlo & Batmobile looks good. Forgot all about the Batmobile. Here, you can get a case for $50(shipped).

I've decided not to go though. For someone cutting back on collecting mainlines, it's pointless with the exception for the chance to find the Bluebird, which is long shot at best. Best of luck to you guys. 👍

Tomica Lancia Stratos (from the Circuit Wolf box set)

The set was broken, though. And the only cars I saw are this, the Miura SV and the 2000GT.

Wimp.

I'll be leaving my apartment at 8:30, it'll probably take me 15 minutes to drive there, park, and get to the designated area. I'll only be purchasing 2-3 cars (unless I find any variations) but even if my chances of finding the Bluebird super are 1 in a million, I'm going. What else would I be doing? Sleeping? I can sleep when I'm dead.

Harley and Lambo, then when I was getting the skate punk I saw the blue c7 so I grabbed that too.

You lucky little...

I can't find a C7 without stripes. Forget about in blue. I hate stripes on the new generation.

 

[Cano]

Wimp.

Dude, if you see any white Fiat 500s, can you grab me one? (:

None of the hot wheels vettes have stripes. @Cano I've seen many white 500s.

You really don't have them down there yet?

 

[Cano]

They come in the case that contains the greenish/gold Kenmeri, right? If so, they're barely landing, but they'll be scalped. I never found the red one for myself, Ahmed gave me the only extra he found.

@Cano I've seen many white 500s.

Glad you did, but you don't have a box full of stuff for me, and Jason does (:

And it's sealed, waiting for me to have time to take it to the post office. Whenever that might be.

well, at least -i know what's happened to it.

But hey, you've already started a new box for me with the dead Auto World.

What can I say, except that I just don't care.

P.S. Your take on sleep makes me absolutely SICK!

That is unbelievable. I don't even hunt anymore, but I occasionally saw both white & red. They must really like them down there.

So I got myself a pretty rad-looking Designer Challenge Dodge XP07 in its originally-intended colour; the deep metallic red. The colour is drop.dead.gorgeous. Only problem is that it's already been scrapped for its S-Tier CM6 wheels. I didn't want that red to go to waste-despite how ugly the car itself is, so I started thinking of what wheel designs would look good for fantasy cars size 2+.

What else? FTE2. So off to Walmart I go to pick up supplies.

Also found two custom El Camino THs too... was about to pick them up, but I figured it would make weak trade bait so I skipped.

Didn't want to pass up the opportunity to photograph this from certain angles. I had one more I wanted to do, but both camera batteries died. :[

 

[a6m5]

Two amazing pics, Andy. Wow.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Or I could say spending an hour at KMart with a small chance to find the Super is better than spending $60 on one.

It was $55(shipped) & included a hidden TH, so it was more like $50, but point taken. At the time I bought it, I had forgotten all about the K-Day. In hindsight, I would have waited until the price came down, after the K-Day event, but likelihood of me actually attending, most likely still not scoring a $TH and still having to spend $30 or more online haven't changed all that much. $20 loss is barely two lunches. I won't lose any sleep over it.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I doubt I'll even see the super 510 but there's still a .5% chance that I'll get one.

 

[a6m5]

I forgot before, but the standard 510 wagon would be very cool, also. Standard 510 wagon, Monte Carlo, Batmobile. Not too shabby.

@Spacegoat - Just checked on my AmiAmi order. This month's TLV releases were all ready like you said, along with two TLV backorders I had. It's now just waiting for the three Choro-Q preorder + one more TLV backorder.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

The 2015 mustang will be in the q case too.

 

[a6m5]

That would be a must-have. 👍

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Oh and the red BMW lightweight.

 

[RCKakashi14]

Today's my nephew's birthday. He's now 3 years old.

He likes superheroes, but he takes my Hot Wheels cars whenever he enters my room.


And for him to kick start in collecting...


...I gave him a Ferrari 5-Pack as a gift.

Thanks dude.

I'd have made them brighter, but again, Photoshop outputs things a bit brighter than the saved image for odd reasons.

That's the spirit. I think a6 is just lazy.
