1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[GTboyz]

I'm sure most of them will move, but aren't they all display models?

I watched youtube, the Civic Type R and the E30 doesn't move. The Audi R8 Plus and Aventador moves though.

 

[ND4SPD]

I know!

It sure looks like the Night Burner Treasure Hunt I got awhile back. I don't remember if it made any whistling sound, but there's little fan inside that spins.

Ya, it got rebranded as the mega thrust a little while back and you can blow into the back of it to make the fan spin and it makes a unique noise from what I hear.

Really, my bad. I didn't even notice that on the Civic.

I just checked my blog, and it was back in 2016. No wonder I don't remember for sure. It seems you have a big decision to make. Keep the Treasure Hunt carded, or uncard it.

A casual collector maybe? I don't get it....

Sure you don't.

Also, casual collectors normally don't have their own model car blog.

 

[a6m5]

2010. Not that long ago, but man, I had no idea what was to come.

Don't be preachy, Jarrod. I already told you I think you need a blog......

Doesn't seem like it but it's certainly gone by fast.

but man, I had no idea what was to come.

👍

But I've got a Flickr account. It's a picture blog!

I remember all too well when @a6m5's hobby started out being justified through good nature.

Apparently the Aventador and R8 Plus also has working suspension....

I have the Aventador coming next week, gonna post some pics when it arrived. Still on a fence on the R8. The red looks good but the yellow one has black rims.

There’s a white TLV Mercedes 190 E on auction which is about to end in less than a day, and I’m still contemplating whether to bid on it or not.

...

...and at less than 33 USD (with shipping combined, as I’m gonna have something shipped from Japan anyways), it seemed too precious a chance to miss, but after realizing that the wheels aren’t actually perforated, now I’m having second thoughts.

Yeah, so much for affordably priced.

1 hour before the auction ended and before I went to have my dinner, I checked the highest bid, and it says ~32 USD. I told myself if it went beyond 38 USD, I’m going to give up. Otherwise, I’d bite the bullet.

After I’d had my dinner (and precisely 1 minute before the auction’s end), I checked again, and after 9 more bids, the highest (and successful) bid soared to 54 USD. (Shipping excluded)

I have one on my blog. It's the only one I have, so I have no idea what type of color the white exterior one comes with.

Yeah, your blog and Spacegoat’s Flickr were the first ones that popped into my mind when I wanted to look at the car more closely. Couldn’t find what I wanted, but thanks for the help anyway. 👍

I didn't even know there were two other Night Burner THs. I have one in the blue body + HW Livery which is also a TH. That's an awful lot of THs for a single model.

I didn't know there was a functional fan on the inside you could blow on.

 

[GTboyz]

So guys...

Thank the lord, Mattel finally made it. *Sells all Kyoshos*

 

[CodeRedR51]

It's was only a matter of time.

 

[GTboyz]

Rumour has it that this is a dinner car...

If so screw that.

 

[VXR]

Anything is better than the horrible widebody one so far.

New Tomica previews:

Those two silhouettes...


...I have a hunch that Ferrari is coming back to Tomica.

 

[AOS-]

Aww dat iddy bidy plane sho cuuuute!

...I have a hunch that Ferrari is coming back to Tomica.

Plot twist: It's an Orochi and Lamborghini.

*dreams crushed*
*bursts into flames*

Moooooooooooo...

 

[a6m5]

JASDF F35's kinda neat, but the second silhouette car.... If it's Testarossa, count me in.

Anything is better than the horrible widebody one so far.

I think it's okay-ish, but yeah. Clean lines of R32 were not represented well at all.

 

[GTboyz]

Ooo premium LFA and Testa (i hope)

 

[Spacegoat]

New Tomica previews:

I'm down for the Fiat 500. Would be a nice companion piece to the Dream Tomica Lupin The Third version.

That mainline Civic looks alright too.

 

[CodeRedR51]

New stuff from Auto World and Johnny Lightning. That new AW Dodge Dart is money. And the Galaxie convertible isn't bad either. And those Military vehicles...

 

[shellac10]

More AW repaints? I guess...

And what is different with this red dart from the previous release (other than tires)? Or is the new one orange?

I guess I use the term new lightly.

 

[GTboyz]

Yes...

 

[MedigoFlame]

Hoping that Tomica Premium LFA comes out better than the old Limited. Been itching to get an LFA model that was actually licensed.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Almost gave up on these.

 

[Zychotic1]

I agree that the TLV shiloette could very well be a testarossa, however the nose seems tall to my eyes... leads me to believe it could be the GTO instead.

but more to the point of this post

I <3 those half tracks!!! must have

Be glad you didn’t I waited a long time to find those at a Meijer after I found Japan Historics 2 at a Target.

It's not a TLV, it's a Tomica Premium. There is a difference.
