1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Gonna start collecting my favorite cars. 👍 So, look out for pics!

 

[CodeRedR51]

A Holden SS Commodore (VT), is it just me or do think this car would look even better with a wheelie bar? What do ya'll think?

It's a V8 Supercar, so no, not really.

Well reason i say that is because my brother has Dodge Neon drag car that kinda remonds me of it in a weird way and well thats why i asked. Personally i think it could fit as a touring car or drag car ether way haha.

$15 really? Sheesh people are so greedy!

I know this isn't a hot wheel or a matchbox but could someone please tell me what this is? It is an ERTL but I don't know what it is called.

Found it garage saleing for $.50 and my son liked it so I picked it up. Paint has defiantly seen better does but I would like to know what I have here.

Thanks.

Do you mean the name of the plane? I don't know what kind of toy it is, but it is a B-1 Bomber.

Might as well go to Target and spend that $15 on the Angry Birds Hotwheels play set.

With the hot wheels designers doing more CCJDM, i'd love to see some kei cars. Lol but understandably they'd have to be closer to 1/60,1/5x scale to actually fit in the box and use decent wheels.

👍

Though i think i'd actually like to them carry-over the smaller (by nature) scale of the Kei cars, so they'd look like Kei cars in comparison to other HW models, some of my favourite HW's are the smaller ones: Go-Kart etc, and i absolutely cherish the smaller wheels they've used on the 1962 Ford Mustang concept car.

Exactly what I told my dad hahah , dont be fooled i bout the bat and kit for 13$ together. But kits hard as hell to find.. it may as wel been a super.. the guy i bought it from said there was one per case , and he told me there's three bats per case

 

[CodeRedR51]

Give it a couple weeks and the BAT will be a peg warmer. If you needed a kit, I could get you one. Saw several over the last couple weeks while searching for the 599xx.

Just got back from franks with a mixed load.

Picked up a yellow merc C class, a final run 911 Carrera, plain red lancia stratos, izuzu vehicross (ftluls), a very ricey silver supra from matchbox, a BMW M1 that's just plain grey (i wanted to get the hot ones M1, but chose to get the cheaper one instead), a red GRB, and the red Focus RS. Also picked up a BMW 8 series with the green special wheels carded, so now i have both models with green wheels on card.

I saw it out of the corner of my eyes.... and i had to have it: an early 2000's muscle machines S30Z! lol i was gonna take the MRS and the R34, but someone picked up the R34 when i was looking around. Pics to come soon

EDIT: also picked up the tomica Z34. The toys R us in the puente hills mall had all the new tomica stuff. I passed on the Lotus Exige pack, but the Z34 is the vert version, AND THE TOP COMES OFF! it's AWESOME

EDIT2: lol frogman i was gonna pick up the hypertruck it looked pretty cool

 

[MedigoFlame]

Went to the indoor flea market and the open one to show my brother. But nothing much new for both. Though I did buy some from the indoor flea market.

My only BMW M3 was a tad messed up, so I bought a loose one for 50 cents.
Finally got a second Hakosuka Skyline!
JL Jaguar E-Type.

They have one?

 

[CodeRedR51]

They have one?

If they have done their recent toy section reset, they should have them. $15.

 

[Spacegoat]

Well, you did ask. I can't help it, I'm a total sucker for the retro '80's design of the Hot Ones.

Gonna start collecting my favorite cars. 👍 So, look out for pics!

Nice, welcome to the madhouse club. 👍

Ack. Why did you do this to me? AND to my wife?

It looks like I'm gonna be doin' that all day long when they finally arrrive here.

If they ever do...

 

[CodeRedR51]

There's this too.

 

[Cano]

yes yes I knew about the cars but I hadn't seen the playset. Man I WANT IT. Those pigs really fly away!!!

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

EDIT2: lol frogman i was gonna pick up the hypertruck it looked pretty cool

were you puling down cars with this line thing XD IDK if you saw me but i was with my lil bro haha

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

There's this too.

I almost bought that but the guy wanted ten and i said id come back latter hahaha, EDIT: it looks VERY different from the concept art, the original was pretty much red bird but a pig

 

[OtakuTaikun]

were you puling down cars with this line thing XD IDK if you saw me but i was with my lil bro haha

and a chick too right? lol maybe i was in the booth in the middle i was trying to get to the fifty5s Z in the back as well as the 97 supra xD

 

[a6m5]

Hey Spacegoat, you should start seeing the truck in the middle in your area by the end of the year:

That Lincoln Continental, I have one stashed, but I could swear it had silver wheels. When I saw the artwork on the packaging with silver rims, I know I don't collect anymore, I also don't care about error/variants, but I was like 'why not' for a buck. It looks good!

*edit Red line STi was a second one, so I can open one of them:



They need to do this more often. If they put them on the blue STi, I'd buy that one, too.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Edit: nevermind

Speaking of Hakosuka GTRs, I saw another one in Walgreens today. Didn't buy it though since I have 5 already. I hope HW are gonna make more of the KPGC10 and C110 Kenmeris, can't get enough of them!

BTW, nice cars Medigo, espically the E-Type Jag. 👍

Yeah they should produce more cars with the redlines wheels. And to make it more interesting, maybe with a unique vinyl or having a HW tampo on the car indicating it's a redline version of the same car, but a rarer piece. Something like that.

But they should have placed gold wheels on the WR Blue STi instead of the white ones. The white wheels are alright, but a blue STi and gold wheels make the WRX STi.


Nothing new today when I went to the stores around my house, except seeing the Hako Skyline and BTTF DeLorens. But Smith's had some 5-pack HW in stock. Finally I've found a Ferarri 5 pack........ With the F50 !!

Got it and I'm loving the whole set of cars, espically the F50. Man, I was looking for a F50 for a long time since. I had a group of F40s and F50s when I was little, but some I traded with friends or I lost them. It feels great to reunite with a car or anything you had when you were a kid once again! Pure nostigalia .

I hope HW will put the F50 in the 90's Decade cars, this car was one of the best in the 90's next to the McLaren F1, Nissan Skyline GTR, Toyota Supra, Dodge Viper GTS etc....

I got these cars at the local flea market today.

Geez. Rub it in, why don't you?

Speaking of variations, I've got that Lincoln Continental police car in blue.......so there.

 

[OtakuTaikun]

Hey guys i don't mean to sound like a noob, but when you keep posting those C6s that are mis-built with ZR1 bottoms, how can you tell? i've briefly examined some of the pics and i can't quite see any difference.

 

[a6m5]

Vspec - I couldn't agree more with your suggestion on gold wheels(also red lines). Very surprised with their decision now actually.

Ben - That custom '62 Chevy is downright SEXY!!!!! God, I want it. Is it current, or should I look online? Nice Bronco too, btw. 👍

goat - I thought I had the blue one, too? Maybe that's why I thought this black/black was so unique? I dug into my storage case, and one I have is identical to the one I picked up today. (Old)Dumb ass.

 

[commodoreben]

According to the Hotwheels Wiki its from the 2010 Delivery Slick Rides Series. I think looking online would be your best chance or just keep an eye out at flea markets or anywhere else near you that sells older hotwheels.
