Does this mean you're thinking about ordering one?
I shouldn't, but I just don't know. I've been successfully passing up all these different hot wheels & minicars recently, but...... I sense something. A presence I've not felt since five jedi Carinas united last. The force is strong with this one. lol
I may or may not have bought a bunch of 1/64 Kyoshos....
Now to wait till stuff arrives...
Caught a bug. :lol:
 

A Gundam TLV. Just do it Tomytec/Bandai.


Edit:

a6m0 “good piece” sample from Asian Greenlight

I think they did well. Don't you think?

I reserve judgement until I get my hands on a random retail box and still shrink wrapped. Every other sample I see is going to be hand picked and doesn’t count.

@Spacegoat we know @a6m5 has NOT quit. He WILL be buying the Honda heavy transporter. And he WILL put a Gundam on it :P

Joking aside putting any Gundam on this thing is going to be awesome. I can see many Gundam and TLV fans already preparing for it.

Don’t let us down @a6m5 :gtpflag:

I'm fighting the temptation, but I do have a weakness for working vehicles like this transport truck. I used to like Japanese robots as a kid, but I don't think I have anything like that anymore. Maybe Doraemon figures? :P
 
Bought my first Majorette in over 20 years the other day, a Mercedes G63 in 'E-Cell' Yellow. It literally stood out on the shelf!

Was really impressed with the detail on these Premium range cars. Good casting, tampos, clear headlights and opening parts. Really giving HW a run for their money.

I like their Subaru WRX, i like it more than Tomica version. They also did a good job on the T1 Van and the new R8.
 
Man, Cargo Carriers is now around $70 per set in my country. It's so rare that everyone is increasing their prices. Collecting these stuff no longer fun. Everyone is playing with the prices and just overall shady.
 
New Gran Turismo set.

Not fussed for the Megane or the 'vette and I don't like HW's Lancer casting (I found the best 1/64 Evo X was by Realtoy and sold as a Tesco own brand in the UK), but will definitely be picking up the others. I just hope they show up in the supermarkets again like the last lot.

I only got the GT and the R32 from the first collection as none of the others did it for me, this time the choice of models seems a better mix.
 
Ran to Tucson to deliver some tires and hit a few stores while there to kill some time. Found the BMW M2 and the Green FD RX-7. Found one store that had Cargo Carriers but only the Gulf van (seems to be the peg warmer of the group). Then on a whim on the way out of town stopped at a Fry's (Kroger) to see what they had and found more Cargo Carriers. No Skylines of course, but did pick up the Honda Odyssey.
 
Yay they have the hot wheels car show events up on their Facebook page. I’m gonna go to the one in Detroit but I’ll have to wake up at 5am to get there at 7/8 am.

Wonder what life size models they’ll bring. I’ve seen the Hot Wheels Transit already and the Purple Passion hot rod.
