A bit off center on mine.


Quitting means stop buying! :P
 
At this point, eBay Best Offer might be the way to go. I wanted to get one for $10(shipped), but no dice. I finally saw couple of listings for $15, free shipping. First one was automatically declined at $12. Second was automatic winner for the same amount. I had $6 & change in eBay bucks to subtract from the total. :embarrassed:

Can't even tell.

I think there will be cars I have to have from time to time. Blue BRE 510 was one of them, and while I didn't plan on this Skyline, it looked so good on all the Japanese Tweets I saw. Oops. :P
Don't be silly, of course you will.
It's less than 50/50 chance me thinks. :nervous:
 
That's a lot of dust collectors. :P
Spring cleaning must be a nightmare

Central vac takes care of it.
You're beginning to sound too much like Jason.

"Two men look out through the bars -
One sees the mud, the other the stars"

Now I remember why I don't bother too much with this discussion on 'Hot Wheels' ;)

Not sure what you're on about to be honest, I didn't mean any negativity with my post, just commenting based on my own experience with displaying cars out in the open like that. But if you want to go and read too much into it then be my guest.

Thank you.

I'll do that if you don't mind. 👍
 
Apok's the easiest going guy @photonrider he's just being playful. 👍
Choro-Q Suzuki Alto, amirite.
You are actually preordering one aren't you? :lol:
50% or less is good enough for me. Very best of luck with it.
You first!!
Rotating the screen a little will show it better.
It doesn't look bad!
Got 16 old cars today, and a Car Culture Skyline yesterday
Welcome to the thread. :cheers:
Awesome display Harry. 👍
Hi all.

May be interviewing a few Hot Wheels designers shortly. Any pressing questions you'd like me to ask?
Will we ever see 1988 Toyota Soarer!?

More on the serious note, will there be link available to this interview? Good luck! 👍
 
I suspect you might already know the answer to that question. :lol:
Considering how boxy and dinky that car is, it may actually translate well to the styling of Choro-Q.
I actually have a HW 510 from when it was still a pegwarmer, thusly my insta name @hws_pegwarmers
Which 510/Bluebird was a peg warmer? I started collecting around when that copper 510/Bluebird came out & I had hell of a time finding them. :crazy:
If you're talking about the yellow one from 2010, I do too! And they've got no wheels!
Let it go Andrew! Let it go! :P

The Land Cruiser they did a while back, was pretty boxy and look how cool that one was. I've got high hopes. 👍

What could go wrong, amirite. Here's a production shot taken straight from the Tomytec website amirite.

Busu-ki Alto

Losing faith in Brickseek for finding the new Car Culture set for the Skyline Wagon. Said the Walmart in the next town over had 10. Went there - nothing. Tonight it said the store by my work had 6 - just one hanging on a peg. Ugh. Literally by the time you see them on the site, they're gone.

That was the only one I was able to find at a local Target. Haven’t seen anything new for Hot Wheels basics and car cultures.
