Edit: If anyone wants One of those Shelbys, Im sure we could Make a deal đź‘Ť

What would interest you for that car? Keep in mind I mostly have loose cars, but I have several 80s stuff that maybe could suit you.

Actually i forgot to specify that i got the $8 one (at least on the tag) but the man offered it to me $5.:D
EDIT: Fixed the post:)

You still overpaid for it. And the Vette with the monstruous engine is not valuable. A buck at most.

Really, well i do know one that is, i read on the back of the blister on one of my hot wheels once and it mentioned that there was bright pink that is highly prized by collectors. As for the thunderbird, im pretty much happy with it, since i knew no other place that had it, i got it. After all if you see my other one, you will understand why i got it.;)
 
Yeah, there are a few Hot Wheels I want bad enough that I'll overpay for them.
i.e. first release Evil Twin and Surf Crate.

Well, based on my collection, im mainly looking for preferably in blister Super Thunts *MC* (got a shelby for you aswell) so in the case that you have them but if you dont make an offer youve seen my collection...

I also have a soft spot for ZAMAC cars(with real riders), ive been looking for a custom ZAMAC Nissan 2000 Gt-x (obviously all these cars will be custom as you have to remove paint and change wheels) with real riders for quite some time...

If you have anything else you think id like, post a picture, ill swipe it right up if I do!

Wasn't there a whole series around the late 90's that had all Zamac cars? I remember having one, think it was the Deuce Roadster...
 
Damn ace that 510 proto casting is sick! I honesty wish hot wheels wouldve went with the time-attack flares rather than the bolt ons.

The only carded $TH I have is a Rat Bomb, on a long international card. Also, producing your custom zamac car wouldn't be a problem at all. The 2000 GT-X is the Kenmeri GTR, right?
 
Drove around looking for scale models and HW/MB cars. Nothing good at Target and nothing a Rite Aid (for scale models). Disappointed, I just thought I'd stop by to see if Walmart restocked. Which they did! Here's what I got.

As I was approaching the HW pegs, I noticed a middle aged man looking beneath the cars. Did my rummaging and then he asked me if I was collecting. Which I told him I was and of course, we got onto the topic of collecting. Talking about how much 2013s have changed and he told me about how he didn't know about the new T-hunts and bought quite a few of the Imagination line cars and found out about the Bread Box too late. :lol: He was a pretty nice guy, though out of town and thought he'd stop by and look. He got a Mystery Machine (telling me he's never found one), several Batmobiles (Of which he kindly gave me one out of his five that he was going to purchase), and a Celica. Been a while since I've come across another collector who's actually kind and sociable. :D

Correct, if it was ZAMAC and had real riders id send the shelby right over...

If your up for that id like it with the real riders that R1600 put on his GTx

I'm considered out of town from the Dufferin Mall I go to. I think one of the Toys R Us staff remember my face by now.

Anyway, another box came in today. Again, I'll save you guys the loading time and scrolling load by showing you the better things. dealsonwheelsplus gets stuff to me in a week đź‘Ť

1st Edition 24/Seven

Change of backdrop: I put a sheet of acetate on top of the white bristol board for the body reflections. But then it meant I needed even more light.

I worked out how I should take pictures of my card collection based off these results. It's going to look cool. :D
 
I need that 24/Seven that came out a year or two later in that satin green with gold rims. God, I love that colour scheme. :drool:
 
Yeah. Was a slightly modded version so Mattel could get around having to acquire the licencing from Mazda.

I currently have 4 of them, which are all recent within the last year or two.

Wow thats interesting! I have two of them green ones, a HW Racing one from 2007 and a few others.
 
I hate how that splitter sticks so far out from the front of the car. The first thing I did when I got mine (the exact green one Andy is looking for :sly:) was remove the blasted thing.
Unfortunately, mine is lost deep in the bowels of my room. :indiff:

what wheels did you pit on the RX7 and the nissan in the customisong thread, cos those are like the ones id requesr for my ZAMAC...
 
My guess is they came off the Hot Wheels Racing Olds Aurora GTS-1. All the cars in the "Racing Muscle" series use those wheels. That's where I get mine. But they are pricey at $5/ea.

Yea, I like those 8 spoke though silver would be nicer

don't worry bud, I already have a set pulled from a Grage Corvette. If we do strike a deal to produce a Zamac car, I'll use those, or repros of those.
