Needs more lighting, though. A lot of them.

I'll say, the panning effects are nice. It shows you care enough about your collection to avoid just filming them from a fixed perspective like a lazy bum.

The lighting can use some work though, yes. I know you love the Blackbird, but there's no need to turn every single of your scale model cars into one...

Late edit: What is this? Another Tomica Seibu Keisatsu car? It's a rad-looking Nissan Gazelle, that much I can say...

So you plan to smother @SVX with a pillow?

Naw. It was a very obscure IKEA video reference some of you may or may not be aware of already.

*Upcoming TLV's*

Oh dear, every time I dare to think about maybe skipping a batch, they draw me right back in. One of each please.

hi again

Sorry. Who are you again?

That Golf is minty. Very nice. 👍

Someone should buy this!

Some guy.

Also, all of them are bad blister pulls, the cards were torn to shreds and stuff like that, so I had the pleasure.

I'll definitely get the "Fiata", this time in both guises (which I rarely do...)







And that Supra...





Here's the R33:

Fiata. 👍 And congrats, @Cano That is awesome. 👍

 

[RCKakashi14]

Fiata. 👍

I can imagine an Italian and Japanese in this situation:

Italian: "Che bella macchina belissima! The Spider is sexy, no?"

Japanese: "Iie, Chigau! We call it Roadster! If it weren't for us, you'll be stuck doing that obese 500 of yours. Debu! Debu!


And here's the R8:

 

[RCKakashi14]

Bought another coffee promo car:

 

[a6m5]

Was it AUTOart who had one of those Z8 castings, but absolutely ruined it with the lame painted headlights? I like this one @RCKakashi14 Nice find. 👍

 

[Spacegoat]

Here's the R33:

Will have to keep an eye out and see when the R33 comes back into stock on AmiAmi. Looks good.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Any other places to pre-order or just...wait to order the Tomica Premium Supra and R33? By the time I was hoping to pre order, they closed the orders. On Amiami...

Don't think I bought enough Tomicas here, might go pick up the Toyota Sienta, Land Cruiser, and...maybe some more.

Tomica #21 Abarth 124 Spider

Tomica #21 Abarth 124 Rally Limited First Release

This casting is amazing for a mainline Tomica.

 

[a6m5]

@domalorite Japanese collectors on Twitter mentioned how rare it was for the initial special release to not only have the special color, but also different mold from the following releases. Special version does look bit cooler with the fog lights.

I didn't even notice the differences in the Fiat castings until now. Shows how much I pay attention, eh? Very cool. 👍

You make me look poor AF. Also, why do you take the 1:64's and 1:43's off the bases? I would never unscrew mine from the bases, unless I really had to in the interest of space saving.

All of a sudden I want to stop buying Pokemon cards.

The detail on this is nearly TLV standard. Both the front and rear badge are raised. I tried to take a photo of the badges but my iPhone can't get that close. The choice of colour could have been better although the matte paintwork looks cool.

One word:



SPACE.

 

[VXR]

Used my Nikon with the old Helios 44 at f2.0.

 

[a6m5]

Beautiful @VXR 👍

I just posted something that arrived sooner than I thought. Sorry, Jarrod. Not the Transporter that you were expecting(that one is coming soon!):

GreenLight trademarks like scratches, spotty paint, fingerprint inside windshield, deformed tires, etc. are missing! Fluke, or have they gotten their act together? It remains to be seen.

Edit: Just posted this one, too. How much is too much, @Cano ?

...THAT BLUE BACKGROUND.

Fixed.

Tomica Premium #13 Nissan Skyline GT-R R33

Tomica Premium #14 Toyota Supra

 

[MedigoFlame]

I want both of those so bad.

Picked up a couple more cars, although...my brother accidentally got me another Toyota Noah....

Still haven't found the Land Cruiser 70 or Subaru Levorg.

 

[a6m5]

Fixed.

Not for me, Jason. I buy tons of both, and GreenLight quality control has really scared me last couple of years. I used to voice my concerns about the M2 Q.C. as well, but I buy a lot & their quality's been top notch last few years. It's also the variety & degree of defects. M2 used to have problems with plastic parts. GreenLight can #@*! up anything.

 

[Spacegoat]

Sorry, Jarrod. Not the Transporter that you were expecting(that one is coming soon!):

Good! 👍

I completely forgot about that GL set. Cobra is meh, the F-350 is pure awesome. 👍 Think I'm actually more amazed that it doesn't have any quality issues. That's a rarity for a GL.

You have more money there than I have in this entire space:
