Seriously thanks. But seriously, I only put out all the Ferraris just so I could have a Facebook cover photo. Seriously? Seriously!
What is wrong with you?
Edit: oh wait you can click on that.

:P
Was the first color for the skyline not matte? I don't remember.
Silver.
I find the Tomica Premium meh-ish most of the time, but this Impreza is one of my favorites. Very good looking casting.
 
Went to my other walmart today and picked up a few cars along with the 356 I've been looking for. :)

The AW Firebird looks really good also, best AW that I've bought. 👍
 
A real shame they couldn't do the Le Mans colours without the decal set. I'd be terribly excited for that.

Knight Rider, Piledriver & Baja Bone Shaker. All for de nephews. I tried to find one of the five Treasure Hunt I left there Friday, but they were all gone. :crazy:
I got a few tlv's in the mail today.
All great, but very cool selection on Luce. 👍

Hella tight. Looks good lowered & especially now that they are using the four-spoke. 👍

All of these look great!👍
The quality does come at a large premium though. But that's not to say it isn't worth the money, because it totally is. I may have five in my collection but they are brilliant and I do not regret buying them. Even though I paid $30+ for each of them.

I call TLV the Herpa of model cars. See why here:

Miniature perfection.
 
Found some new Hot Wheels while on lunch break:

De Nephew cars on the left, mine on the right. Been wanting to find the Aisle Driver.
It looks like they haven't fixed the bed alignment issue. Was a problem when it was released as the lightning a while ago.
What alignment issue!? It looks perfect. :lol: I saw pics of these on Twitter or something. They look really good. 👍
Noted. But honestly I didn't notice that... :dunce:
This trick has come up in this thread numerous times. I wish all blind bag stuff had a cheat like this. :lol:
Aw man, I'm still waiting on my Porsche and Supra to arrive. :indiff:
I don't even care anymore on these international shipping, but just for heck of it, I checked. It traveled within Japan & arrived in L.A., all in one day.

One week after it was received in L.A., I ...... still don't got it. Just remembered why I don't check tracking anymore. :dopey::lol:
 
I'm waiting for the day that their parents tell you to stop buying cars because they have too many. :lol:
I've been getting warnings. :lol: I bought them big storage tub things, so they can keep them here. Whem my kid brother(their dad) asked me to pick up hot wheels for them when I got chance, I don't think he was envisioning exactly how many they would end up with. I probably had like ten cars myself at the start. I have few more now.
I'm going to take this as sarcasm. :P
Which part is misaligned!?
 
Right next to the cab. The blue one is acceptable, but the brown one is way off.

Both look very accurate... the blue truck was built in Minnesota, while the brown truck was built in Louisville...

(I live in Louisville...I know TOO many of the people building ford trucks at the Louisville plant)
