Want that SP2

I can get them for you. Store's in walking distance from school anyway.

Anyone need a 5 spoke Ferrari California? Found a couple today.

The latest one with the horrid tampos on metalfalke gray with the black/red wheels?

Edit: I'm in the canada

 

[CodeRedR51]

No white with black/red tampos. 98% of them came with PR5 wheels.

Edit: just read that the Porsche 918 Spyder will be a 2013 new model.

Hope to see pictures soon! I'm guessing through the HWC forums?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah, no photos. Also the 2013 Mustang GT.

 

[f1reb1rd]

That is a hideous paint job. What makes it German?

What a shame. Car is awesome. With the standard paint job, almost any color, I'd buy one!

It's in German and the rest weren't

Oh. I'll take one. Add it to my cart, sir. Or has the cart already left home?

Edit: just read that the Porsche 918 Spyder will be a 2013 new model.

My body is ready.


Going to buy 4 of those if they look real nice. One to open, 2nd to stealth paint, 3rd to store, 4th to wheel swap.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Box hasn't left but now I need a bigger box.

 

[a6m5]

Found some nicer cars, but no Celica, Mystery Machines. Finally found red line Firebird, still need that Maverick Grabber red line. My Twin Mill fetish continues......

German packaging eh? That was my guess.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I just reorganized my display frame so that theres empty spots for cars I will get in the future, that way I don't have to keep shuffling cars every time I get a new one.

Goal-oriented empty spots. I like it.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah.

Plus its just easier.

 

[McZachenF1138]

I picked these up yesterday. Nothing too special really. I may open the green egg...I mean Civic.

[Sonygamer455]

Are package defects usually collectable?

Yea certain ones usually do. I have been finding some lately.

Here's one I got a few years ago. It is a 2006 Track Aces Sling Shot in a 2007 Track Stars blister. I believe this one was intentionally packaged like this, just look at what it says on the back.

Edit: Reuploaded since I no longer need Photobucket.

Doggone it! I completely spaced it about the new Matchbox Lotus. Civic looks nice. 👍

 

[McZachenF1138]

I already have the same Brasilia and Kenmeri, but I always wanted to get another of each for opening and now I do!
The VW Thing is to customize because I know I can do better than Hot Wheels on that one!

 

[OtakuTaikun]

I just discovered the super tsunami i have is wheel swapped! Lol i saw the different rivets its got in it and upon image searching, i have yet to see it with the old fte 5 spokes. Ill upload some pics of my hauls from yesterday later

[Cano]

I finally have some more pics for you all.

Great grabs, Ben. The boxed Matchboxes are insane, I had never seen that version of the AMX. And I need to get my dirty paws on those 50's stock car series.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Ugh, want the Civic and Exige.... Stopped by Walmart and Target in a hurry, nothing much new. However, at Walmart, they've got new Decades cars. 2010 Camaro SS and Pontiac Fiero. Didn't bother with them. Target meanwhile has two Vector W8 Twin Turbos, so...if anyone wants them, I can stop by tomorrow and get them.

 

[SkylineFaux]

Man does this thread make me jealous. Fellow HW collector from the Philippines and unfortunately, we barely get anything good on the pegs. Even box peeks are pretty barren (no T-Hunts and whatnot), but atleast the castings from those are decent. You just really need to get lucky at times. Oh, and we're painstakingly behind on releases by months.

I mainly collect JDM cars and cars with FTEs on them.

Here's something that might interest you guys though: a red-windowed Speed Machines GT-R. Found it in the store I frequent for my hauls a few months back and have absolute no info on it. Also, to my knowledge, there hasn't been a red-windowed GT-R ever. Just curious if someone has spotted anything like it.

Comparison between the normal one and the red-windowed one.

Closer look. If you'd notice, even the headlights are red, as it's part of the window mold.

 

[McZachenF1138]

Wow, that is exceptionally rare. Way to make a splash in this forum and GTPlanet!
Welcome, and we all hope to see you around here more often. 👍

Ok guys so here's the ones i've purchased the past couple weeks:

Mad Manga recolor, finally the 2012 beetle and the Angry Birds cars;

a coupla past cars including the decades F1 and the combat medic since my wifey liked it

First editions BTCC Civic and AE86 as well as an old Matchbox Z32

A couple of other purchases, i personally loved the color scheme on that 930

then a pic of my loose cars i purchased including the old Celica-Supra, wheel swapped Super Tsunami, 959 and soarer. Plus the boulevards 914 which looks awesome!

a bit of a close up of the supra. I think those wheels look better than the ones that usually come with it. upon closer inspection, it looks like the super tsunami is held together by some sort of vinyl glue or adhesive of some sorts, it's definitely not a rivet

 

[CodeRedR51]

I see a couple I need.

 

[McZachenF1138]

I picked up another Civic if anyone wants one.
And I finally found the Boulevard I've been wanting; the GTO Wagon!
Plus an Astro Funk, Ford Falcon, and Estoque Mystery Models.

 

[CodeRedR51]

South Texas Diecast updated their site with some 2013 stuff, but I had to send them an email because they listed the Toyota AE-86 as a 2013 new model which is incorrect as we all know...
