1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[CodeRedR51]

I’m still seeing the Fast and Furious box sets like this in some stores.

I'm off to TN again this week for work and plan on hitting a few stores in my spare time. Retail has been terrible for me though, so I don't expect to find anything.

I haven't been collecting as much lately but I somehow managed to find two $upers back in July.

Got one a few years ago

My Kyosho 944 S2 is finally here and here is the best photos I could take of it.

Got one a few years ago

It's a crispy model, easily one of my favourites. When Alex Kersten from Car Throttle bought one a real one in mint condition, I had to get a model of it. My dad never paid any attention to the 944 but it's a good car. Hard to believe it was designed 40 years ago.

This is amazing.

Yeah that guy has amazing collections.

I was mainly talking about the diorama display. 😅

Totally worth it.

New Z for '22

 

[Greycap]

Bought these because they looked nice (I have around a hundred muscle car Hot Wheels already) and the Galaxie caught my attention because it looked like it was "made too well" so to speak. Little did I know that it was a Treasure Hunt, it's been so long since I've bought Hot Wheels actively that I had no idea the entire TH recognition system has changed. I come from the era when they were still green.

Found this Dodge Rampage at a Walmart in SC on vacation. I see someone posted one in their pickup from a couple of weeks ago. But this was a nice "find" for me. Store had plenty of the Ford GTE race car on a hauler, but couldn't justify paying the price for one. I had a Rampage from Hot Wheels in the early 80s. Red with yellow tampo & real rubber tires. This car takes me back. My original one looks much like the red one here.

But it looked good new.

EVOLUTION

New cars unveiled at JCCS this weekend. I NEED the B13 Sentra SE-R! 🥰

The R34 with that Silhouette style body is giving me Tokyo Extreme Racer vibes.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

New Z is cool.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Better pics. I'll add more once Facebook decides it wants to work properly.

Really want that ST205 GT-Four.

Travelled around the state for a few hours to different stores. Turns out I managed to find some parts of the Modern Classics car culture set not that far away from my town. Only found three of the five, but happy to at least have gotten the Evo and 3000GT. Didn't expect to find the F&F cars too. Hoping to maybe at least find a second set of Modern Classics before the holiday shopping starts to pick up, because of how bad it gets. A little odd I never saw the truck car culture set before the Modern Classics.

Also found the MB set.

@MedigoFlame, the 2 I see from your pics that I need to put my eyes on are that red/white Ford truck & the JL Trans Am. Good scores.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I haven’t seen any Hot Wheels Boulevard series cars in stores recently just the car culture ones for premium.

 

[ScottPuss20]

I bought this Daikoku car park diorama from Facebook of all places. Way better than the one I came up with!

All I need now are some bozuzoku cars

 

[VXR]

Our local Toymaster store was pumping out F&F Premiums for £2.99 each. At full price I might have only got the Buick GNX, but with the reduction I went all in.

My haul. The boxed Caprice police cruiser is a JPN/Chinese import.

Don't buy many model cars these days but I still look on occasion to see if anything interests me. Latest two pickups.

Apologies for the crappy phone pic.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Got my box of the new Modern Classics set.

Actually I only wanted the Ford GT in white (since I do have the black one from the first HW-GT-series years ago) and the R34 + maybe the McLaren F1. But prices for the R34 are completely nuts with 20-30 $ shipped for the GT-R alone so I bought the complete set with all cars for ~38 $.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I've decided to get back into customizing, but only to the extent of wheel swaps. Just to add some more cars to my "premium" collection. So here's the first one:

Nice, may i suggest a backdrop from @Hakoniwagiken?
