Damn, commodoreben coming through with the OG Real Riders! 👍

Found this hidden $uper Coronet yesterday after a hard skate sesh. It was at the front of the pegs, all the way at the bottom. Didn't notice it until 5 minutes later, until I got down there from checking the top pegs.

Will also post the recent errors and variations I've found.

BTW, Kmart Kday (collector day) is next month on Sept. 15. You guys should check it out if you haven't been before. Try to go to one that isn't heavily visited by collectors and make sure you bring something to cut open those fresh cases. :drool:
 
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.

All these have been found: (That I know of)

- '12 Z06 with '11 Grand Sport body
- '12 Z06 with '11 Grand Sport base
- '11 Grand Sport with '12 Z06 base

You can tell the difference between the two bodies by looking at the side vent behind the front tires. The Z06 should have a single vent, and the Grand Sport has 3 vents.

The difference between the bases is that the '12 Z06 base actually says '12 Corvette Z06 on the bottom. The Grand Sport base does not have the name of the car on the bottom, and instead in that same spot just has a Hotwheels logo.

And here's a photo of both cars side by side, you can see the difference in the side vent:

Here's a '12 Z06 with the Grand Sport body:

I got these cars at the local flea market today.

A Rig Wrecker from the Workhorses series on an un-punched card and a Bronco 4-Wheeler from the 1983 Real Riders series on an un-punched card. The next cars I got from a local discount store.


You found the Bronco Real Rider at the flea market too? Awesome car, that. How much?
 
@r1600 oh i see now lol the error looks pretty good

@frogman i was in white yesterday i was probably at the booth for lile 40 mins lol
 
- '11 Grand Sport with '12 Z06 base

I'm still looking for another of these, so I can send you one to try to finish the whole set, or at least most it. I know I'll try. :D

Here it is along with a couple of other errors and stuff I found this past week.

Extra chrome on the front wheel.

Great news! Muscle Machines are back! :dopey:



Speaking of which, I believe I saw several Muscle Machines Import Tuners at the flea market. Mainly RX-8's and one Evo though...
 
@M-POWER_FTW
That Dodge lil red express truck is not only missing the interior but it is also missing the stacks as well. Didn't want to quote the whole post because it takes me too long to delete the urls on my ps vita.

Late to the party. Already talked about that in the last couple pages or so. ;)

It cost me about $30 Australian. Its been a while since we have seen any pics from you Cano. Have you got anything interesting lately?
 
It's been a while since I've posted here, mainly because I hadn't found anything interesting up until about a month ago, when the local Big W finally updated to the 2012 stock. Thankfully they also had a few of the later 2011 models that I thought I was going to miss out on as well.

Keeping up with this thread is tough I tell you. I have to look back at nearly 30 pages. Hopefully I'll find one or two posts with vintage stuff. :D

I've been on a spree recently. the flea markets have been okay, but eBay and vintage stock have been gold mines
 
At least you're still alive, got dammit. You disappeared for like a month and a half. Wait until I post my stuff to post yours so we can obliterate the supermarket guys with old crap 👍
 
Ok, exactly whats going on here? And why is R1600Turbo rolling his eyes? Kinda following and not really posting much since I haven't gotten any new cars in a while.

I like being obliterated with the kind of old crap Cano has to show. 👍

Seems like R1600Turbo needs to get a sense of humor as well.
