1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[AOS-]

Most Majorette Racings have that thin metal rod clipped inside that creates the suspension feel, some will have more suspension travel than others like the 308 WRC. 👍

 

[a6m5]

Come to think of it, I might have like NSX or something that states working "suspension", right on the box!

Edit:

It was R33:

I grew up on Tomica, but new one's just don't do it for me. I see older Tomica on eBay, and they look absolutely money.

This absolutely. New Tomicas are pretty horrible. The old, 70s-80s ones are absolutely on other level. That's why I don't have a single new Tomica model, but have several of the older ones. Steep pricing for most, though.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Seems true. Gosh now the good feeling of buying them has gone away.

 

[Cano]

-disregards new ones
-go into E-Bay
-buy old Tomicas
-wait for them to arrive
-???
-Profit

 

[CodeRedR51]

No Tomica's here.

Just got back from putting tires on my real car, so I walked across the street to the Dollar store, and Target since it's in the same complex. Only thing good at the dollar store was a 5-spoke '68 Cougar (harder to find than the MC5's) which had a slight error to it - bent front axle.

At Target there wasn't anything either. Lots of RX'7's, and I picked up the only Ferrari 458 Italia that was on the pegs. Will be hitting Wal-Mart late tonight, then waiting until next weekend I will hit all the stores on my side of town after 10pm.

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

I finally got all the new 2011 =D Darn mega duty!!!!

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

You have got to be 🤬 kidding me. You found it?

The vipers rare? i have like 2 * i love vipers* I got them for 7$ each at this collectors place
=D

 

[a6m5]

Seems true. Gosh now the good feeling of buying them has gone away.

I'm party pooping.

Sorry.

Edit: There is one Tomica I'm kicking myself for not buying. Nissan Juke! Love that car, SUV.... thing.

God, I hope you find something new & cool tonight then. Good luck! 👍

Some of my other errors:

=D

So you have that new SRT Viper?

 

[CodeRedR51]

So you have that new SRT Viper?

Maybe one of the auto show versions like the one on eBay. No way he has a retail version.

I wouldn't even pay $7 for one....

Edit: Finds tonight at a local grocery store below. Also, this store has A LOT of 2010-2011 cars still on the pegs like the R34 Skyline, Mini Challenge, Tyrell 6-wheel, etc. If anyone here is looking for specific cars, put up a list here and I can tell you if I saw that car or not. I can purchase these cars and send them to you as long as you foot the bill.

You lucky.........

Give me Viper NAO!!!!!

 

[a6m5]

R1600: How about another pic of that Ferrari 308? Nice find. 👍 And without even asking him, I know Medigo's been talking about R34. I think he wants that one bad.

Due to the combination of a mild insomnia & urge to listen to some *cough*country*cough* music, I decided to visit couple Walmart tonight. First Walmart had the ammo I wanted, and that Boulevard series Blue Camaro. Ammo in the sporting goods, they are too busy so I was like "screw you guys!", pick up the Camaro and walk over to the main register. I see the long line at the register, I said 🤬 it, left the Camaro by the impulse buy shelves. $34 they could've taken from me there!

I didn't frigging care, because at the second Walmart, I found these:

Couple of those are for my nephew, but I bought the "Cars 2" stuff for me. $1.97! I dedicate them to Medigo, the biggest Cars fan.

Bonus shot:

Seriously, one of the best cars I've ever found! I think it was almost six bucks though, one of those premium M2 models.

Mother Of God!!!! A R33!!!!

A6, hand it over bro. I been looking for a R33 since GT1 and 2 and I gotta have it NAO!!!!!!

I didn't even buy it. I think my kid brother brought it back from Japan, lord knows how many years ago.

Are you kidding me? You're way too kind of a collector, makes me feel guilty for asking.

Any color for them (apart from those I request), doesn't matter to me.

Skyline GT-R R34
Nissan GT-R R35
McLaren F1 GTR, but I doubt that would be available. Since it was a Cars Of the Decade. And a bit expensive
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
FTE/New Release Ferrari 458 Italia

Scirocco GT 24
Ford Focus RS
Citroen C4 Rally (I hate the current one, so I've been looking for the older one in red)

And that should be it... I can't thank you enough for taking the effort of doing this for everyone on the forums. Also, sorry about my rather disorganized list. If only there were 2009s available too, I'd be begging for an R35!

Edit: Just remembered they released one in 2010 for the Night Burnerz series. X_X But you never know if you find a different one.

No Tomica's here.

Not even at your Toys R Us? Odd, I suppose they sold out? Mine told me that they'll eventually be getting a new shipment sometime in the future. Waiting on that GT-R R35 they make.

I'm party pooping.

Sorry.

Edit: There is one Tomica I'm kicking myself for not buying. Nissan Juke! Love that car, SUV.... thing.

It's alright. Still enjoying the hobby on my own terms. Even if you guys say the new ones are crap.

Seriously the Nissan Juke? Weirdo... (Kidding, I can understand)

R1600: How about another pic of that Ferrari 308? Nice find. 👍 And without even asking him, I know Medigo's been talking about R34. I think he wants that one bad.

You read my mind Mr. a6m5...

I want those pixar cars to go away! I'm getting sick of seeing their pegs not emptying and wasting space. Drives me mad knowing that hot wheels and matchbox could be on those wasted pegs.

I'll just say what I bought for the mystery models instead. Bought the green Ford Falcon XB and the white Lamborghini Estoque. Completely forgot to look for the El Camino though...

 

[MedigoFlame]

Double post! ACK!

^^^ Those are the only ones I remember seeing, but I just glance over non-realistic cars, so there may be more. The cars sell at 10 for $10 with their discount card. I don't have one but I can snag my mom's before I head over there. Depending on how many I purchase, shipping could probably be around $10-12. (USPS Priority) Edit: Forgot you are in Canada, could be a little bit more...

No R35's unfortunately. Everything listed below is what I remember. As stated above, I could go through there a little more thorough next weekend.

Not even at your Toys R Us? Odd, I suppose they sold out? Mine told me that they'll eventually be getting a new shipment sometime in the future. Waiting on that GT-R R35 they make.

None at all. Just not sold in my area.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Those sound good to me. I was sure there wouldn't be that much actually available in that one grocery store. Planned on getting a orange Ford GT LM that was at my Target, but never bought it. Of course, kicking myself for not buying it since it's now gone. I don't think the Datsun 510 is necessary along with the white Gallardo Superleggera. (Probably just the green Superleggera) What color is the Reventon? I currently have the Night Burnerz Orange and Black, so I think the green is probably the only one I'm looking for at the moment, since I'm sure the new models isn't there. I knew the Veyron and McLaren wouldn't be there. Looking for the new release 370Z, C4, Gallardo LP560-4, and Furai.

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

If there were any more Tomicas in my area, I'd send them... There just aren't that many in my store. Only the Triton/Juke, Legacy/Orochi, RX-8/Hino, X-Trail/Shark truck, and EvoX Police/Police truck dual packs here. Unless you'd like one of those.

 

[CodeRedR51]

The Gallardo Superleggera they have is white. Same with the standard Gallardo. I'll have to double check on the Reventon, it might have actually been a yellow Murcielago.

Here's a better pic of the 308 I bought. (not my photo)

 

[MedigoFlame]

You can knock the Superleggera off the list then. Never had the original LP560-4, so it'd be nice to have. If it was a Murcielago, I don't really need it since I have one. Even though it was part of my late childhood, so it's got a bit of damage to it.

Which reminds me, does anyone want to see my older HWs up close? I remember first posting them here in group shots and I believe someone talked about having a look at them a bit closer... I could do that if anyone would like.

 

[a6m5]

If you guys have anything that you are usually too embarrassed to buy at the store, now would be the time to ask Uncle R1600.

P.S. 308's sweet. 👍 Thanks.

 

[Katiegan]

Got some new ones last week, a Hot Wheels '67 Chevelle SS and a Matchbox '68 Mustang GT/CS. Will post pics soon!

 

[MedigoFlame]

Kicking myself for not buying the MB Mustang GT/CS when I had the chance. Nothing but the ugly new MB stuff. Unless you count several left over Honda Insights...

Forgot to ask, R1600, is there any CTS-Vs left?

 

[CodeRedR51]

No CTS-V's. I did see one of those Mustangs though.

 

[Cano]

oooo pretty. M2s rule.

 

[a6m5]

After this car, I'm going to start paying more attention to those. I checked the receipt last night, and it was $5.88. Pretty steep compared to the Vintage Racing, etc., but quality if incomparable. You can't see it in the pic, but the doors open, too. I also like the little stand it comes with. 👍
