Some nice hauls on this page! 👍

Edit: Errrrr. . . . I meant that page.

Guess I'm getting two 131's then. Thanks Andy.

Hey man, I only have one of those Sanremo 131s!

How is the AUTOart compared to other makes (Kyosho, Minichamps, TLV...)? It really seems like a steep steep price for a 1/64 model. Especially a civilian one.

I offered you my BMW Z8s for a decent price, did I not?

Quality's pretty good. Based solely on one casting, the execution is cleaner and more consistent than Kyosho, but not as detailed as a TLV (again basing that off a police car only).

I was probably fighting the spelling correction on my phone. I didn't butt-dial that I promise.

I agee it must've been the phone's fault and not your fingers. I will remember this forever and ever.

Not to mention that AutoArt 1:64's are very hard to come by.

Global.rakuten says "Hey I got Carrera GTs and for GT40s for days!"

You know what's funny, the bins at my local Walmart have been kept full for a while now.

Because of what time of the year it is.

I know...I was aware when I wrote that. I wrote it because I was surprised at how many of the same car I was seeing even after weeks they were released, that's all.

Just got the Walmart flyer - quite a few of the HW lines on sale - mainlines are a dollar apiece, 5-packs going for six bucks.

Thank goodness I type out the name and details of each car I post.

I was updating my blog to transfer cars (I recently sold to some of y'all) from their respective pages to another page that records all sold cars, and some bug crashed that webpage and lost my progress which meant losing the Image URLs I needed. I was able to retrieve from from searching this thread. 👍

Most of you probably won't care about this, but if you're like me who likes a backup place to trace back old info, this is a practice you can pick up.

This thread used to be that for me. When I left, I picked up on a blog to serve that purpose. I use email search capability in similar fashion.

On topic:

Greenlight Black Bandit 2006 Dodge Charger Police Car

One of my favorite GL Black Bandit cars.

No, doo doo head. I was admitting that I probably screwed it up by fighting the text correction.

But it was probably the phone's fault.

So your phone didn't agee with your correction?

I don't find a Pontiac GTO any at all attractive, but I was very drawn to the Boulevards one in its black and red. It's one of the last Boulevards I'd ever pass up.

I like the the Boulevard series. RLC I like, but it was only after Lamley featured it on their site

brb let me call up Lamley real quick about that Super Mario Cool One.

Judging by the pics it looks like it was nicely done. Definitely worth the $8

Hopefully we'll see the Matchbox Best of the World series down here because it looks friggin awesome.

I can't with those wheels. Just no. The tires are even worse.

 

[RCKakashi14]

Guess which Matchbox Premier model I bought today...


Hint: It's silver.

I bought that for my nephew. Another car I saw just once.

Paint job on it is amazing.

Lot of the paint & livery don't do much for me either, but yes, I'm also not too crazy about the rims.

It's been quite a while since I bought this Ferrari from DaBoxToys, but it's only now that I remember to post the pics up here. I saw it at 65 HKD (~8.5 USD), which is quite a bargain, I believe. Plus, unlike most Ferraris, which I prefer to be in red, I found the 365 GTB4 Competizione to be more appealing in white. Like the other Kyosho 'model kit' I bought, the screw doesn't really fit the car, but other than that, there isn't really any imperfections. I like the fact that it's got a roll cage in it. Without further ado, here are the pics:

This is the Sunkus release and not the Original?

 

[GoSpeedRacer]

Some pics from my mostly open collection. I wish I had my Redlines® back from when I was a kid, but I just collect 60's - 70's muscle cars these days. Most of my collection are openers, but I keep certain sets and RLC® cars in their blisters and protectos.

I guess so. All I got was this and the blister packaging, I don't have the box. What is the Original version?

 

[AOS-]

The ones that come with the glossy ABS base and acrylic lid.

Well, here's my 2 AW world cars. I actually have a Camaro, not a Firebird. I also have Christine in hotwheels form.

Choice stuff. Welcome 👍

This is a great example of when Greenlight gets it WAY right. Now I want one.

I'll give you the tyres are pretty questionable but personally I'm rather liking the wheels.

As always, it depends on the car. They look ridiculous in the bmw for instance.

 

[a6m5]

@CLowndes888 - You got the color I want for the price I paid for the blue one. Jelly. 👍

but I just collect 60's - 70's muscle cars these days.

Nothing wrong with that. One of my favorite genre of hot wheels!

Love the white w/gold rims. 👍

Our tastes are so similar sometimes, then you say something like this.

That Corvette is superb... Wonder why the rear fender well is so gigantic.
