1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Agh, that Yatming Scirocco has eluded me forever. Nice find @Gotbeefboy564

Also screw you on the SEMA carrier @a6m5 that thing is sweet.

Matchbox Cadillac Sedan de Ville and Dodge A100. Don't be surprised if at least the Caddy gets turned into a racecar.

Thanks Cano. It's only money, right? I also committed over $200 on something at Playmoya, but they have nasty habit of taking my order, taking my money, then a week later, they go "sorry, we couldn't find the model, but here's your refund & a coupon lol" 🤬

I don't want to jinx it, so I'll let you know when it happens, or doesn't happen what the item was. They've yet to process the order.

A100 look much cooler this time around. 👍

Don't be surprised if at least the Caddy gets turned into a racecar.

It would make the worst race car, but aesthetically, the potential......

You gonna have to do it now dude.

Oh yes it does.

Um... just read Cano's post. Only make it a dirt car.

That.... is SO. SICK!

I will eat his words for him. Holy moly.

 

[Spacegoat]

They've yet to process the order.

Was going to ask what's the latest with that. Really hope they come through for you with this one.

Eat your words

Spoiler: Holy Hell

 

[a6m5]

Bah, you guys know what I mean. Don't get me wrong, I love that Caddy too, but it's a sideshow project.

@Spacegoat I should know this upcoming week. Unless the Christmas slows them down.

 

[Casey]

Went out today and found these on the pegs. Finally found a Falken 934 .

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

Finally.

 

[a6m5]

Love you buses....

Had these things for sometime, but first time I took pics of them together. I just need a couple more to recreate a scene at the transit center. j/k

Think that actually would work really well with your parking lot Tomicarama.

Fingers crossed. 👍

I'll add them to the list. No, I didn't actually.

Fingers crossed. 👍

Me, too. Thanks!

Edit: Damn it dude. I thought I was in a convo.

*Double Post*

Sorry.

 

[Bo]

I'm looking forward to these.

 

[AHMEDFINK]

I'm looking forward to these.

They look great, I have a few F-toys and the only thing that I don´t like is that they are all made of plastic, and in many cases the plastic isn´t painted, I´ll look after these too

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Well, I have brought a little something home with me today, and fortunately it's in tone with the topic of this thread;

What can I say, I dug the paintjob in this 930, and I didn't have any cars decked out with Falken colors, so why not take out two birds with one single stone? Also, a little family picture with some of my other 2015 HW additions;

Poor Espirit, she's looking so bland in such a colorful company...

 

[a6m5]

Great cars + pics dude! 👍

I've bought two cases worth, and I'm just done with them. One series had parts/assembly problems, second looked CHEAP with the unpainted plastic body. They look great in pics, but that's just feedback from someone who went through 20 or so of those models. Personal opinion.

Here's a blogpost I did on the NSX:

Coincidentally, the white car I have in all my shots(in the garage where NSX is) is also F-Toys.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Great cars + pics dude! 👍

Thanks, hearing those words from you makes me proud of the work put into making them pictures in the first place. 👍

Also, I do want to see if a fellow car collector also shares your opinion... (cough @AOS- cough)

Next round of Greenlight Black Bandits:

 

[Cano]

DUUUUUUDE THE TOPOLINOOOOOO :0

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Next round of Greenlight Black Bandits:

Never mind the rest of the collection, that is without a doubt the most badass Topolino in the history of everything. I do not know where did Greenlight found and/or created the idea for such a model, but they deserve all the credit and then some...

I'm with Cano on this, nothing else can even come close to the Drag Topo in terms of awesomeness, how is that even possible!?

If you guys go to the Greenlight Flickr site, you can see other stuff they have planned. You can also see some pics of their fantastic 1:18 GMP line.

I'll be sure to follow your advice R16, Greenlight seems to be firing on all cylinders to end this year with a bang... And if those GMPs are indeed 1:18 models, I'll eat my darn hat, because they look like real-life pictures of custom cars!

I have all three of those cars. In exactly the same colours

Well it's hard to be original if you are a HW collector... especially if you limit your choices to cars you like.

 

[a6m5]

I passed on the initial release of 1941 truck, but Black Bandit do seem even cooler. It is a very neat casting.

Also, is GMP Greenlight? I ask, because I have GMP 1/18 Mustang and....... Greenlight 1/18 Mustang.

Thanks, hearing those words from you makes me proud of the work put into making them pictures in the first place. 👍

I am all over the place as a collector, and really pride myself as the average photographer in this thread(average at best lol), so it is what it is, HC. Sorry.

The topolino was commonly used back in the day of the altered wars, when exceedingly short wheelbases were allowed by the NHRA. They were not plentiful but they were indeed cheap, and with a bit of, er, inventiveness you could make them haul ass with the best of them. I'm talking 7 second, 200-plus stuff here. Google is your friend.
