1/64 Model Collectors Thread

That All Colors Barracuda is reminding me of the TLV 50th Anniversary Porsche for some reason...

 

[Spacegoat]

"Ogikubo Damashii", or Ogikubo Spirit. It's a reference to the Prince Motor Company, creator of Skyline, etc.

Thanks for that. 👍

Know you're not a fan of those big boxes but it is a pretty good looking box, I must say.

 

[a6m5]

I'm afraid I can't do that.

Aww... Andy. I always avoid caffeine, outside the coffee in the morning, Earl Grey, green tea, energy drinks & 99% of the soda I drink.

Most of the time.

Now that you mention it!

I would say "no" to both oversized collector boxes & the atrocious design of the Ogikubo series boxes. Sorry, but you knew at least one of those were coming.

Found this '82 Supra and a few other cars (1st spoiler) and finally the Hakosuka (2nd spoiler).

Well this is cool.

Oh papa needs.

I don't want to give you the impression I'm hooked, because I have not tricked myself into thinking I depend on this stuff.


I'll do teas purely for recreation though.

I suspected as much.

Old and new matchbox Chevy vans
Left is the old one from idk and the right one is from 2007

They have different bases too

Old one is the less detailed base. I've had the old one in my collection for a long time I don't remember where I got it.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I basically lost interest in collecting hotwheels for the time being. None of the stores in my area have anything new, they still have older stuff that I already collected. That and I'm kinda out of room at the moment. I really like looking at what you guys have bought recently though.

That's a nice livery. I hope to see it replicated in the future on Forza (whenever they bring back the EG civic that is).

 

[CodeRedR51]

This is really nice. Rubber tires too.

Pffft..... I'm not jealous, like, at all.....

Old and new matchbox Chevy vans

Very cool side-by-side. 👍 I was only familiar with the new casting. Didn't even know that old one existed, or how closely the new one was based off of it.

Yeah, sadly, you either check bunch of stores & all the time, or check online like eBay, or The Toy Peddler. It's unfortunate. I like your casual approach. 👍

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Yeah. The old one also has more details on the base like side exhausts and the Chevy grille. @a6m5

Actual rear-side windows too, huh? Very nice.

 

[Johnny1996]

A few gems. If anyone has any info on any of these cars please let me know because I'd genuinely like to know. Values, age, etc.

[a6m5]

There is like one person who might know anything about those. Some call him a myth, sasquatch, I call him...... the @Cano.

 

[GroupB]

I remember that Fairmont. It was everywhere when new.

I know old stuff like this is right up his alley. And I feel like this is gonna give him a headache.

The man, the myth, the legend.

 

[Johnny1996]

A few more to add. The motorcycle is apparently from 1967-70 If the tiny bit of info I found on it is correct.

GreenLight Shell VW Double Cab

The man, the myth, the legend.

Or just bigfoot.

A few more to add.

That bike looks like a Honda I've eyed a few times before. Available with a trailer/hauler. Cool, but always more than I want to spend.

Shell livery looks awesome. The wheels look great too. 👍

Or just bigfoot.

Some people have actually seen bigfoot though.

 

[yabiggoose]

Looks like an original Deora as well.

Yooo, an original Deora! Nice

Love the VW.

Got my bike for 50 cents as you see it now, sans trailer.

Looks like an original Deora as well.

That's pretty much the only one of those cars that I posted that I know anything about.

I think that cougar is part of the sweet 16 originals.... almost looks like it may be an original Red Baron (in great shape)
I beleive the other one (logo on front) was an '95 25 yr anniversary release.
the paddy wagon is missing the most important part of recognizing the car...the whole top section...

 

[a6m5]

Couple from me today:

Richard Petty '67 Plymouth(HW, of course)

Johnny Lightning VW Polizei Transporter

Oldies, but goodies.

 

[AOS-]

^ Hot damn I don't like Plymouths, but I do like that blue.

2017 Adventure '16 Fiat 500X - Pretty neat details on the roof, obviously I wouldn't supply pictures of that - go get it for yourself. Hmmph.

But the front and back are done up pretty nice too. The big wheels make this look even cuter.

2017 Factory Fresh Like-how-low-it-is Porsche 934.5

Wherever they're at in Hot Wheels history, they were all $2 or less. So with what you said in mind, I may just have a few steals.

 

[Zychotic1]

I beleive you do... I know of a few people who would double your investment in a heartbeat...

All the more reason for me to hang onto them then.
