That 935 is one I'd grab, but I wasn't too fussed by the rest. The actual 277 would've made me pant with expectation.
 
Got these two Kyoshos today, got the both for a good deal. :)

Edit: Better photos.

Japan Booster put that GT-R set up, I saw the Lamley post 38 minutes later and they were all sold out already. Wondering what a full set is selling for. (I don't need the flat black ones that I guess are harder to get?)
 
On the way home today:

Neat little camper trailer won me over.

That Jag was my first Kyosho. 👍

:(

I think I'd be willing to buy that 8 cars set for the same cars everybody wants, but it sucks you have to go through the hassle of parting it out. "If" you could even get your hands on one. :crazy:

Edit: I wrote to Japan Booster & even before I got a reply back, it's back in!

This is my order:

Just get this and you can put it with whatever car you want. ;)

Funny you mention it. I actually did have that airstream on order with AmiAmi but they canceled the pre-order for some reason that I can't quite recall now. :lol: :crazy:
 
My parents were out and about, and saw the blue F&F Escort. Result. Thought I'd missed the boat on that one.

We both have the very first one they released though. One that came with, I think green Monaco or something.
C10 is pretty ho-hum.
It's okay, but yeah, not as cool as it was couple of years ago. At least with these, detailing is super clean & color's pretty alright. 👍

Nice save!
Sold a matchbox; lose money.
Buy low, sell high.
Want one? Go to Toy Fair 2017 or sell a kidney and get one online.
Sometimes, they have those castings that I wish I could justify paying $100+ to get one. Fortunately with this one, I would pass at $20. :lol:
bought the first matchbox i've liked in awile
That one is everywhere here(I do like it in real life). Only one I wish I could buy & never find is the Rover. I've only seen it at Toys R Us, but they are overpriced, so I passed. That is "one" car I can't find from the lineup at normal pricing.
 
just got back from walmart... for the first time in almost 2 solid months they've put new hws out... a dump bin of NOTHING but the Ford Performance mustangs... I grabbed one of each

That's true. And I'm actually glad the order did get cancelled. Not quite sure why I needed another airstream that's exactly the same as the one I already have with the Monaco, anyway? :lol:

Yeah, the colour is real nice. Just wish they would mix up the vehicles a little more with the hitch & tow series, the occasional wagon or two wouldn't go astray...

Is it exactly the same? They do look very similar. Packaging is sharp though. 👍

Like which wagon? Tweet it to me 'attention" GreenLight. :P

The wheels are different and I think the finish on it, is different too? Think the one that came with the Monaco is shinier?

So, yeah. Not quite exactly the same but near enough.

Actually they do seem a lot more open to that kind of stuff than the TomyTec account does. Still no though. :lol:

What case is that red Porsche from I think I missed it unless it was a recent release.
I'm not entirely sure which case the Porsche was from, but there was a yellow Carrera GT, green Charger 500, Black GReddy 180SX and some white CR-X's on the pegs. The Porsche I picked was the only one there. Does this help you in any way?

Just the White Integra Custom for me today. Looks better than the yellow, IMO.
Agreed. That red interior looks awesome.
Also hit the jackpot at Walmart. $65 later, and I got the entire Euro Style set, entire Ford Performance set, and HW Garage set.
