..... AND A MOUSE!You solve everything with money.
Custom TLV CR-X I made with a mouse & some dollar bills.
Instead, it's same old/same old, DIY rear spoilers & higher price tag.If TLV did stuff like that from factory, I'd happily pay their rapidly inflating prices.
After I sold off most of my JDM collection (a mistake) and the fact that the second hand market is completely out of control forcing me to collect stuff that's easy to get for $1........yeah. Kind of been that way lately. I've actually concentrated more on collecting Star Wars Funko POP figures. Sure they are more expensive (around $10 each) but their releases are spread out through the year so it's manageable.Anyone else become apathetic towards diecast?
I'm into Pops too. Have around 60.After I sold off most of my JDM collection (a mistake) and the fact that the second hand market is completely out of control forcing me to collect stuff that's easy to get for $1........yeah.

I'm probably around 85-90 Star Wars figures (only collecting new stuff from TFA onwards), then I have a couple for Karate Kid and a few from Ferris Bueller. Can't wait for the Stranger Things figures that should hit around March/April.I'm into Pops too. Have around 60.

I bought the Tomica Premium Lancia Stratos HF Rally. It actually looks good.
Yeah, but now how does it compare to a CM's? The TLV vs CM's is a trending topic here now.
Not really, but towards certain brands.Anyone else become apathetic towards diecast?
Jebus, that's a impressive collection. I've seen them at Toys R Us, but never paid attention to them. How much are they new?(not the secondary market price, but MSRP)I'm probably around 85-90 Star Wars figures (only collecting new stuff from TFA onwards), then I have a couple for Karate Kid and a few from Ferris Bueller.

I was impressed enough by online pictures of it. Mine's still sealed in package, but @Spacegoat keeps bugging me about it, so I'll open it soon.I bought the Tomica Premium Lancia Stratos HF Rally. It actually looks good.
You are smart ass. And this:Yeah, but now how does it compare to a CM's? The TLV vs CM's is a trending topic here now.
The Tomica Premium models are made for the mainstream market, though...
Depends on the store. Target and Walmart are usually the cheapest at around $9, and stores like GameStop, Hot Topic and FYE can go as high as $15. (usually for special releases). How much are they new?(not the secondary market price, but MSRP)
I buy dolls on occasion(hold that joke, not worth it!). Maybe you can make a "doll" thread?(I mean figures).Depends on the store. Target and Walmart are usually the cheapest at around $9, and stores like GameStop, Hot Topic and FYE can go as high as $15. (usually for special releases)
I thought about making a thread for people that collect them, but I thought I was the only one. Now I know there are two of us, and I doubt any more than that...

That Cobra casting looks suspiciously similar to the HW Premium casting. Here:Non-licensed Jurassic Park Jeep anyone? Without the license, I'll pass...

OMG OMG OMG OMG I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT IT
No, let me rephrase that. I NEED IT I NEED IT I NEED IT
But honestly, the 962 is one of my favourite racing cars of all time. I must buy this car no matter what.
Sometimes buying them for for the same price as the whole pack is worth it so you don't have to deal with cars you don't want. With that said, eBay shows a few listings for the Skyline and one for the Escort.I wish that these came in singles though, because I really don't want to buy 5 packs when the pack is filled with other cars I don't care for.
Good lord! Okay then, I might have to go back to Target tomorrow.Sometimes buying them for for the same price as the whole pack is worth it so you don't have to deal with cars you don't want. With that said, eBay shows a few listings for the Skyline and one for the Escort.
Then again you could just donate what you don't want to Goodwill or something.Good lord! Okay then, I might have to go back to Target tomorrow.
Toys R Us will probably be our only brick and mortar chance at it hah.
I know about 4 that are near me - Chadstone, Highpoint, Doncaster and Northland. I'd like to go to each during the holidays so I can actually find some decent HW Premium cars.The nearest Toys R Us to me is like three hours away. Maybe that explains why it's so hard to find anything good around here.
