I'm buying that Delorean by the way. As long as it doesn't sell out to RLC members in the first 24 hours... :nervous:

So they finally put the gold rims on a STi, but on a white one with green/yellow/pink stripes on it? What is up with you, Hot Wheels? :crazy:

Anyway, congrats on the Celica & even the WRX. Veddy nice. 👍

P.S. I stopped by work today. Not working, but someone special there was killed last night riding on a Harley. 15-year-old driver on a driving lesson, learning to drive on a tricky & fast speed road made a overcorrection, went against the traffic and hit our man(RIP).

Anywho, I stopped by Toys R Us on the way home, their pegs were BARE. Does this mean that they are getting ready to break out new cars? Should I hit them again tomorrow? I don't go to Toys R Us a whole lot, so I don't know if they stay on top of that stuff or not......
 
My local Toys R Us has just started getting 2013 cars, so I'd keep an eye on the store, especially if the pegs are bare. Could mean when they restock it'll be huge.

I have one like two minutes away from my apartment, but it sucks b@!!Z on Hot Wheels. Only good car I've ever found there is the Knight Rider car. Also got couple of Hakosuka when it was still rare. They did have nice 18th scale Shelby Collection GT-40 today for $40. Almost bought it. If it was the Gulf livery, I'd have bought it without a doubt. :d

I'll check them out again tomorrow morning.
 
Sometimes it's annoying to check stores every day, but if they do finally stock and you are the first one there, it'll pay off. :)
 
Just got a couple of cars I remember playing with when I was younger. Ones a black Majorette Corvette that is coming from America and the other is a green Majorette Golf that is coming from Germany. Pics to come when they get here.
 
Made six new purchases this week. Photos incoming.


And R1600, I...hate...you:grumpy:

Really! Well here are 2 other ones my brother owns.:D

A black one to complete our wrestling series vehicles.:) My brother got this one about a year or two ago at Kit Kringle. Many old ones we get, come from there.:sly:

I found a few of them on ebay if you are willing to pay shipping on a single car and just a few quick pics of my latest store purchases for you all.

I got two of these 3 packs that contain a Subaru WRX STI (my first ones:D) a Superleggera Gallardo and a Ballistik.
 
There's a toy store in my local mall called "Smart Toys" and their Hot Wheels are $1.49! And their three packs are $6! :eek:
 
UGH, new photobucket makes it so much more tedious to link numerous photos... new purchases:

We still haven't had any updates for Hot Ones in a very long time. Not even the assortment with the CRX has appeared! :grumpy:

What store did you find the 2013s in R1600?
 
Curses, nothing new at all at my Walmart (checked earlier today)... Might poke by Target to see, since their pegs were barren last time I checked, so they may have restocked. Still waiting on the MB Civic Type R and Exige. :grumpy: May as well give up on the Bentley...

I'm thinking the Bentley's your next Kenmeri. I run into them all the time over here now. Like I said in the past, they didn't impress me at all in person, so I decided against getting it. You won't get disappointed by MB Exige though. The car is marvy!
 
Hey AOS, what is that green and white pick-up/car with the soapbox car in the back? is it a Caddy?, whatever it is, i like it a lot. 👍

Also, can people stop posting pics of their gorgeous Celicas.... i'm about to go into a jelly rage. :grumpy:

[EDIT]

YAY!!! Postie just knocked at the door, i have my Polistil Porsche 928 turbo. :D

The bad news is, the car must have been left out in the sun or something, as the blister has pretty much deteriorated (thin and badly cracked and very yellowed).
The good news is, i managed to ease the car out of the blister (due to large cracks) without damaging the card... and the car is in pristine condition (blister's done a great job of protecting the car over 27yrs).

Quick pic: (would have taken one with the car out of the blister, but batteries ran out on camera... so will post one of just the car when i get back from work later tonight.)
