1/64 Model Collectors Thread

My white one is in the mail, somewhere.

According to the tracking, mine was mailed on the 10th, and it still hasn't left Japan one week later. Andy's last package from there got to Canada in just one week. What is wrong with this picture.

 

[RCKakashi14]

Hopefully Maisto will release a plain body version of this...

@a6m5 - I also have "Irene" now. But doesn't lean that much, though...

Have no idea where mine is, for all I know it's still in Japan too. In hindsight probably shouldn't have deleted the email with the tracking number. I just take it for granted that it will magically arrive one day, hopefully soon.

That @jtl46 got his and we're sitting behind our keyboards all jealous and whatnot?

We love Irene. 👍

You deleted it? I might as well. My last AmiAmi order went thru same thing, and it turned out that they didn't bother scanning until it was ready to leave L.A. Of course, L.A. never let me down with their snail with a walker speed, it still took total of three weeks to get to me.

John probably shell out the bucks for EMS or something. He's a stud like that, no, I'm not jealous.

OK, I am.

 

[Spacegoat]

Yeah, I can never be bothered with the tracking number. They always turn up, eventually. Anyway, it makes for a nice surprise when they do. 👍

My immediate reaction to seeing John's post. Going to assume that it was yours too?

Trying to negotiate a trade on a red '68 Cougar with OH5 wheel variation. Been going back and forth for two weeks. Ugh.

When there is new stuff, Japan Booster sends it to me EMS so I can feature it quickly. I am having too much fun.

Aw man, you got them already? Lucky. My white one is in the mail, somewhere. Looking forward to seeing them featured on the blog. 👍


Dude that avatar. Awesome. Classic episode. 👍

Let's celebrate with a cool glass of turnip juice.

@AOS-; I already have 5 of those future mainlines.

Yeah but you've missed out on a bunch of mainlines you'll never find anymore.



==========



As the F&F cars depreciated in value, I find I probably won't be able to get rid of what I have, so I'm just going to complete the set and call it a day.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Stopped by TRU and Walmart and picked these up:

Walmart's been putting up old cases... Haven't seen the NFS Elemento in a while.

Stopped by the local flea market and found these!

They also had a Matchbox Mercedes-Benz S500 in silver. I didn't pick it up a week ago...and now it's gone.

I bet you are. And the tomicarama sure makes for great shots. 👍

Didn't see that chevelle when I got my FAF cars.

There always was an abundance of these at my stores last year. All the R34s and Supra would disappear. This, the challenger and Chargers would be warming those pegs all day and night.

 

[CodeRedR51]

The Torino's are peg warmers around here.

 

[AOS-]

I don't even know. Never heard of these before.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got the chicane TH at the store I work at.

 

[AOS-]

You found 3. Nice~!

Touché. Rub it in why don't you?

 

[CodeRedR51]

@Cano you wanted the red M2 Camaro with the stripes?

 

[Cano]

@Cano you wanted the red M2 Camaro with the stripes?

Yeah! Found one?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Internet at work is slow.

 

[AOS-]

Internet at work is slow.

Hope your net ain't too slow to load these:

2010 Superfast Lesney Edition '68 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Worth lots of moolah.

Worth less moolah now that its loose!

 

[a6m5]

Gorgeous. Absolutely.

Worth less moolah now that its loose!

I like you, but you are crazy.

Yeah! Found one?

One or both?

I've been checking out those M2 Camaros(I've seen three different ones so far). They are super nice for $3. If I wasn't trying to contain the size of my collection, I'd have bought one myself.

My immediate reaction to seeing John's post. Going to assume that it was yours too?

That's about right.

I am having too much fun.

That looks like TOO MUCH fun. 👍

'91 Thunderbird sounds neat. Welcome to the thread. 👍

Don't get his hopes up, they are $3.97 + tax.
