Looks like they brought back the Roll Patrol and renamed it back to its proper name.

Nou, the Roll Patrol had a modified front with square lamps. This casting hasn't been used since... early 90s I'd take a guess, in the color Changers line-up.
 
@Cano - does something look off with this car, or is it just me? Maybe it's the angle, or the trunk is too short?

This might be a must have:

There's this one too.

I need this car in my life. Are they on store shelves yet? What about prices?

Also, can anyone tell me if any sets from any brand would have a 1970 Chevelle SS in stock condition, or a 57 Bel-Air Coupe, as well as a 1958 Corvette? I need all of those in stock condition to complete my collection.

Also, storage space is becoming a problem...

Any cheap and easy solutions? Nowhere to move the books.

Not sure when they hit shelves, probably will be around $5-6.

Also, attach that photo as a thumbnail, it's rather large.
 
I've always liked the M2 Nova & that SS Camaro looks nice. 👍
Now come on, that was just mean.
No, that's funny(sort of).
But to be fair, Cano ain't trying to convince you to stop buying TLVs, Shinji. He is just making a comparison between quality. Nothing more.

👍 👍
I know, and at the end of the day, we are talking toy cars(but I'm right j/k).
I can see why you wanted Cano to look away, just saw what they are asking for those on ebay. :lol: :crazy: Great shade of Red though. Looks great. 👍
I got it for $63, and same seller has same listing again this week. Red is expensive. Japan Booster one went for $70-something. :crazy:
I cried a little inside...
Was it like this?



No? OK.
Not feeling that civic sir... As a huge fan of the EG model civic, that model is WAY off, i expected more from TLV..

yet i still want one/going to buy on.
:crazy: I absolutely hated the car when it first came out, then it totally grew on me(probably before you were born lol). Very rarely you see perfect casting, but I was actually pretty happy with this one. It looks very realistic to me(I just saw one few minutes ago, too). *shrug*
Heads up: Toys R Us stores are getting 2015 A cases with the Kombi super TH.
I just hit my TRU on the way home. Not a damn thing. I did see a Green Machine VW set, but it was just one van in the set, and I really wasn't feeling it.

During lunch, I did walk to Walmart & got one of these mystery models(not my pic):

Acura HSC Concept, little darker in real life. Worst car ever.
 
It instantly reminded me of that horrid 5-pack Honda Racer.

Speaking of Honda Racer.

I've 3 others. The blister is cracked, but seller sold all 4 for $1.75 because the cards were "warped". I'm not complaining.

Other boxes came in.

Got some bikes, zamacs, another 8 crate for another wonderful wheelswap, and stocked up on more WSPs, Minis and Kenmeris.

I think it miiiight be the angle that shows the rear quarter panel too tall/short... or the casting's rear quarter panel is too tall/short indeed. I'd have to see it in person. And I also want that red Camaro. New casting or new release?
