Eh, they look alright but I'm not happy with them. Whatever though.

Perfectionist amirite.

Always! 👍

Except on Audi R8 amirite.

Good stuff.

That Aoshima Williams looks good.

My first Aoshima, outside the Grachan Collection. Classic Formulas are so cool. :tup:

Not really. Just feel that those two could have been better.

Except on Audi R8 amirite.

Why would someone do that?

Classic Formulas are so cool. :tup:

👍

Yo '17 GT-R owners.

Just noticed both the R35s I have on me have their side windows scraped during manufacturing; roughly in the same manner.

Anyone else got Frosted Windows R35s or did I discover a - *gasp!* don't say it - new variation?!?!?

Found a diecast heaven here in Osaka:

And lots of bigger scale models as well. I stayed there for more than an hour just to look at all of their items!

Though I bought two 1:43s...

Lucky!

Those "Japanese Classic Car Collection" boxes look like Kyosho, but I don't remember there being such a series. Can you confirm?

F-Toys. Plastic. Store's impressive though.

Incredible.

Disappointing that they stick the price tags on the boxes though....

Cars and donuts are hitting Meijer stores. Found the 3 exotics just need the Subaru and Datsun. Also finally found the J case silver ford gt and got the two matchbox nissians. Jounior pickup and silver skyline.

This is a Tuk Tuk

Obvious, yes. Probably the first and last I'll ever get.

After considering the goofy colours, I have began questioning whether the 94-cent purchase was worth the money.

I originally wanted to plop this with the rest of my colleague's toys just for kicks, but maybe I could find better value in this if I make this look a bit more like a RL rickshaw. The lime body and yellow wheels is really killing the mood.

 

[RCKakashi14]

I bought something from Yodobashi Umeda:

 

[GTboyz]

Hey anyone got the Tomica LV Neo Vision GT ? Does the details and stuff worth the price?

I was planning on getting the Hot Wheels one but it has bigger rear wheels . Why are they bother putting bigger rear wheels on real licensed, non drag cars is beyond me.

 

[shellac10]

That's Hot Wheels for ya! So many cars ruined with that decision.

 

[a6m5]

Is it worth the price? I'm not familiar with the going rate, but for me, probably $30~$35? At the release, we paid just over $20. I have pics from different angles & details on my blog.

If it wasn't for the oversized glitters in the sparkly paint, I would have definitely bought the purple one also.

Well, someone is selling 1 set of the grey and the red one for $30ish (if converted from Indonesian rupiahs to US Dollar). Thinking of getting that one and sell the red one. I don't like the glossy red paint.

I don't care what anyone says, i'd never be able to get one on the pegs because of too many crooks here. This is the only TH$ that worth buying off the market imo.

Sounds like a really good deal though you are clearly color blind. jk

Well it looked glossy from your photo. Unless it actually looks like the one at Nissan Cafe then i wouldn't mind.

Tomica Limited Vintage LV-169b Mazda Cosmo Sports 1967 Red

Spoiler

Nice alternative red colour. Gives the Cosmo a more classic look.

CM's Rally Car Collection SS:14 Nissan Datsun Violet GT 1981 Cote d'lvoire

Spoiler

This might be familiar to some members here. My first CM's and they really are amazing. If this is the typical quality, why are they still so cheap?

Tarmac Works Hobby64 Open Day Event BMW M3 E30 White

Spoiler

Plain white version is clean looking. Gold rims fit nicely I think.

Matchbox 2018 Globe Travelers Ford GT40
Matchbox 2018 Globe Travelers Mini Cooper S Cabriolet
Matchbox 2018 Globe Travelers Land Rover Defender 110

Great new collection from Matchbox. The GT40 is ruined by the use of dot matrix printing decals. The Mini is the nicest of the three. Love it!

CM's is not well known to the mainstream world. Lack of popularity = lack of demand = those who're desperate for sales will sell for less.... even if its quality and availability suggest otherwise.

I fear I may not be able to get much out of my Minichamps when I sell 'em. Same for the Carismas.

I think I purchased 4 CM's Corp cars for $16... Well, maybe a little more but you get the idea.

 

[Johnny1996]

Someone just tried to sell me an entire Japan Historics series with all carded cars as one bundle for $750. I said no since I already had the whole set (not to mention the price was absolutely ridiculous) and the guy got angry and told me to quit the hobby because I don't support it or the people in it.

What the hell?

that guy... What the hell is the matter with him ?

 

[Johnny1996]

I don't know. Could've been a joke though since it was over text and I don't know him at all but with some people you never know. He blocked me before I could respond again.

 

[AOS-]

He didn't find the sucker he was hoping for on Christmas to rip off. He put his dinner money on that scam and Johnny didn't bite.

Or that butt baloney dude developed the thought that people ought to purchase his collection for god knows what reason.

 

[domalorite]

CM's is not well known to the mainstream world.

True. And the scalper promotors don’t know about these yet.

 

[AOS-]

I don't think they'd have an interest so long as Hot Wheels and their $upers keep them busy.

I wonder how @a6m5 got your phone number?

 

[RCKakashi14]

Went back to Joshin today:

And what I bought:

I really hate people like that, sounds like a manchild.
