1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Thanks dude.

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

I didn't realize there was Twin Mill III. Regardless, the car looks amazing in those pics. 👍

I think a6 is just lazy.

More like unbelievably lazy. If I ever dispute this fact, punch me in the face & call me a piece of crap liar! Then kick me in you know where...... but I'd never dispute it. Not even to my boss.

@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.

That Corona, nice. 👍 Forgot to ask before but what else do you have in that order?

Outside the Choro-Qs, I have two preorders & two additional backorders(not counting the Corona):

National(aka Panasonic) Samba & Midget preorders. Toyota Crown & (another)Datsun Bluebird on a backorder.

I've wanted the Corona for looong time, and Crown, I never took a close look at this TLV before, but it looks really cool(had crush on Crown since I was a kid).

I can't wait to get it.

 

[Spacegoat]

I can't wait to get it.

I can see why, the Crown really does look the goods. Excellent stuff, looking forward to seeing some pics. 👍

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

I've never seen a hot wheels C7 vette, actually .

 

[RCKakashi14]

Seems that Kyosho still hasn't gotten over the Lamborghini Veneno. Another variant will be out soon:

Only one, though. Comes with a little magazine containing information about Lamborghinis.


Reminds me of this...

Wow. DaBox restricted people to ONE Huracan and Veneno per person, and it certain colours STILL sold out in 3 hours.

Their prices per item aren't even cheap even. What is with the rage?


Ordered only the Jota. Half of the Lambo Collection 5 seems like filler. No one wants Gen 1 Gallardos, dawg.

 

[RCKakashi14]

Wow. DaBox restricted people to ONE Huracan and Veneno per person,

Not surprising, since they are the only new castings...

 

[AOS-]

A shame the Jotas weren't the ones with the wing. I was thinking of painting one red. Guess I won't now.

White Huracan sold out, Red and White Veneno sold out.

Huracans being listed for $23, Venenos for $35. The yellow Huracan was tempting, but not for that price. I'd put that kind of money on everything but modern Lambos.

Even Beads aren't listed for as much and took longer to sell out. This is nuts.

To be honest, I wanted to snag the Secret Haruzawa Veneno; the black one. It wasn't available. :[

 

[RCKakashi14]

I'm going to HK by end of December, will spend New Year there with my family. First time to celebrate it abroad.

With that, comes diecast hunting. Hung Hing store will definitely sell Kyoshos for cheap.

And maybe pass by DaBoxToys store while I'm at it.

 

[AOS-]

You ever going to do any shopping for me?

eidt: Sick Desoto, Shinji. Your skyline is missing some stuff it seems.

The OEM...

K day was good. They let us pick 5 for 5 mins then they had 1 case that wasn't opened, it was raffled off then after that they let us grab what we wanted. There were 2 supers but none in my case. no regular 510 either also no e36.


My 5.
Then got the rest.

16 total no super or regular treasure hunt. Got all the exclusive cars.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Just opened my Batmobile saw some extra plastic on a wing.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Waiting for mine to start. Only 8 boxes, 11 people so far. Not liking my super chances.

Edit: no super.

 

[Avalonbug]

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

I still can't find any Fiats. The only ones I have I've ordered from eBay

Get the 🤬 outta here Johnny. Did you actually score that?

I am in love with that Skyline.

Not after you see the price. It was over $30. I only bought it, because a) it was selling real well considering the price(future collector value) b) I used to watch the show c) It is very cool casting in Bond Car kind of way.....

The other Seibu car, that white Cedric, I wasn't overly impressed by. It's like $16, and comes in a big collector boxes, which I'm not too fond of for these Seibu Keisatsu cars. In Super Silhouettes, hood comes off, and a figure is included so it merits having a larger packaging, but for Seibu Keisatsu, it seems rather pointless. 1/64 scale defeats purpose by taking up so much room for me.

eidt: Sick Desoto, Shinji. Your skyline is missing some stuff it seems.

Like Antennas? I haven't looked at any extra parts it came with.

Those trucks are amazing...

By M2 Machines. They are nice for their prices. Just make sure they arrive in one piece. They have poor quality control, and they fall apart rather easily.

 

[Johnny1996]

@a6m5: Someway, somehow, even after getting to the event five minutes late, there that 510 was, sitting out in the open in a box that someone had already gone through.

How I managed to score it, I don't know, but maybe that heads-up penny I found in a spider web at school and took home with me had something to do with it. 💡

As for the price on the Skyline, all I can say, or rather post, is this:

sitting out in the open in a box that someone had already gone through.

Also this:

Well, congrats! I'm glad at least one person scored one for a buck. Very surprised by how so few sealed cases were available at the events Jason & Beefy attended. Jason, before you ask, I had great time sleeping in.

 

[Johnny1996]

That was pretty much my reaction when I first saw it too.

I wanna kiss that penny I found.

None of the 8 boxes at my store has any supers. My box had a regular TH, I left it behind.

It's early yet, but I just checked the (initial)Post-K Day market for those cars on TTP & eBay, and they are still going strong. They seemed to be going for at least $60-ish, shipped. I can't see it keeping up the pace after Q-Cases get distributed around the country, but it is the 510 we are talking about. Sky's been the limit for 510 castings.

How many people did it end up being? No regular 510s?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I'm annoyed that both the supers were found by the same family. The dad and his kid both had tickets.

I was bit confused by what you wrote. Did you say that there was just one sealed case?

 

[Johnny1996]

I got five more cars than what I have posted below, but they're duplicates. To be exact:

• One other Cloak and Dagger TH
• One other '64 Chevelle SS
• One other Jeep Scrambler
• One other Challenger T/A
• Two other Mazda RX-7s
• Two other Porsche 934 Turbo RSRs
