Would be cool if they made some new castings specifically to go along with the F&F series. Would love to see the S14 240SX and R33 GT-R from the first film.

Packages came in! :D

Boo. It's not amusing anymore. :grumpy:

Mercedes%2BSLS%2BAMG%2B(2011%2BAMG%2BMinicar%2BCollection%3AKaruwaza).jpg


2011 AMG Minicar Collection
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG (Karuwaza Limited)



The "Karuwaza" version is basically a secret model, but only ever found at Karuwaza...
it's like a "K-Mart exclusive $TH".

In any case, I'm all set on SLS models. Won't need anymore!
 
Still waiting for the bloody order with the GL Jeep + trailer, AW GT40 and Mustang.

Ordered 23 Dec.

Whereas the Beads I bought on like the 4th or 5th of Jan took 7 days (including a weekend) from Japan.

Needless to say, not happy.
 
I had a good one. CM's from Hong Kong. Mailed on 1/6, then no tracking activity after acceptance. Today, I get tracking result showing that it's in town, then that it's ready for pick up. Acceptance, then nothing for almost ten days, then it's here.

Icing on the cake, I swung by today, no notice left in my mail box to pick up packages, so I didn't even bother asking. I'll try again tomorrow. :lol:
 
One way to tell the secret car of a Kyosho boxset:

The card will simply have a yellow highlighted text read as: "PLUS SECRET", which means that the 4th variant of that model shown in the card is the chase car.

Didn't even know that! I checked up on my cards just now:

Secret cards are different. While we're on it, this is how you can tell apart a Karuwaza (if you're ever searching up listings):

The black/white print is stuck to the back of the box, covering up the whole roster. If you see a box without the 20-something cars on it, you know that's a goodie.
 
I've seen someone cruise around town with a dark blue Celica and aftermarket alloys. Though that looked rather cool.

Though I'm not a huge fan of that generation of Supras, I recall it being the first car I would always pick up in one of the older GT games whenever I had to restart a save.
 
Hong Kong. Though that's technically a city.


edit:

International Scout 4x4
2014 MBX Explorers

I really like this boxy thing for some reason. Might have to do with the proportions resembling that of a classic toy.. or Micro Machines.

I should create a line of Micro Machine look-alikes using HW/MBX cars.

I've bought myself (well, when I say bought, I mean bought by my dad) a McLaren F1 #24 Gulf Oil for about $23 and an R390 GT1 Race Car from '98 for $20.55 including postage! And it's part of the Kyosho Beads Collection:D
 
Latest TLV pre-orders are up on AmiAmi and dear god, yes to this. :drool:
Did I call this, or did I call this. Thank you TLV. 👍

You are fired.
Just went for the red and silver versions of the Supra myself. They will do nicely.
There is silver!? :embarrassed:
There were a couple of Tomicas:
Love the two cars on the left. Smiling car on the right...... No comment.
 
Had to run to Phoenix tonight and hit a couple Toys R Us stores looking for that Greenlight Ghost Mustang. No go. Did find a Charger I wanted, but the hood was messed up so I left it behind. Found another one at the second store, same deal. Came home to buy one off eBay, no go.

See how the hood doesn't sit right?

Must be a common issue. :(
