Must have been a return.

Also picked up two 510s & 2007 Golf that day:

I think that AMX was also couple years old. :lol: Returns, mysterious old stock, who knows. It was a pleasant surprise for me, as I didn't even have a black 510!

P.S. While digging up this picture, I ran into a pic of the same car I bought today. '69 Cyclone. Again. :guilty:
 
Don't tell me they don't have Matchbox Exige up in Canada. Harry found one, didn't he?

I have seen and currently own an orange and blue, but I have not seen any red ones yet, let alone good MB stuff. It's all trucks and jeeps.. since no one here collects 'em.


Anyway, some of today's purchases mixed in with a delivery. Disclaimer: there is no backdrop. :lol:

xD nice centipede.

Saw one of the newer hotwheels Panel-Trucks. We have a '66 c10 Panel truck, and couldn't help buying this one:

How many times have you been using that same truck? :lol:

Also, I'd retrace the wheels since you already traced the entire body.

Yep, that some crazy purchases right there Andy! :lol:

AOS-
I should sell all my Civic Si's since you guys seem to like 'em. Anyone want 'em?

Love to get involved, but I'm kinda broke now. :indiff:

I HATE THOSE SILVERFISH, I HATE THEM, HATE THEM, HATE THEM!!! The are disgusting. I had to dismantle my PS3 because one had melted inside of the system and ruined my GT5 disc because its bug guts got all over the disc. Ewwwwwwwww!!!!
 
Think he's definitely serious, and a nutcase. That car is maybe worth the $20-25 I've seen them go for, but certainly not $100. :rolleyes:

Edit: @ AOS - Which Civic's?
 
Huh. I thought I had the recent blue one. Guess not. I only have a boulevard, and the 2008 all stars (gold), as well as the 2011 Nightburnerz, but I stealth-painted that one so you guys can't have it. Oh well. Thought I had more. My bad. Unless you want more boulevards in which case I can get likely 2 more for you.

But if I've wasted you time, I apologize and here's how will make up for it:

Hahahaha! They're centipedes.... silverfish are an entirely different nocturnal species.

What is that rally car?!
 
Centipede. Gross. :yuck:

Picked up a handful today:

Green M2 Firebird on the top left is a "chase car", which I think means that it's a limited edition. I saw it, remembered Medigo saying something about green cars, so I gambled on it. I hope it's worth some money, but I somehow doubt it. *goes off to eBay to check*
Speaking of 510's. I know the Vintage Racing 510 is very hard to find, but this guy can not be serious, can he? :boggled:
This car has pretty much turned into a Super Treasure Hunt status at this point, but yeah, $100 is absolutely crazy. :lol: I wish I bought more than one!
 
You guys will be happy to hear i scored 9 F1 GTRs. just cleaned out their inventory of decades cars. XD I know i'm saving a few for AOS, and one for both Medigo and commodoreben. The price will be 2.50 per and probably 2 bucks shipping (i'll setup a paypal soon...) or a trade. I'm looking for loose/carded R34s, RX7s (that IMSA one that got pic'd around was cool, but i know that's out of range lol), Supras, or even tomicas in general. With pictures anything can be negotiated :D

I also picked up another nightburnerz GRB :D i love the white/gold look! and i happened to find a lone Countryman Rally car sitting on the sales rack, the hook on the card had been ripped off. Still no TA22 :(

EDIT: OMG that panamara :Q______

EDIT 2: I stopped by a yardsale and decided to pass on a few things:

Passed on a white Z31 (yes a Z31) and a white foxbody with some ugly tampos from some type of low-quality company (probably a Toys R Us or Maisto). They were hot wheel size and the body was, albeit thin, die cast with plastic bases. Kinda regret passing them...

There was also an almost plain red Celica Pikes-Peak and a very rainbow color Bel-Air on old school real riders. The RR tires were on rusted out axels so i passed on that. There were also a few very heavy 40's style hot wheels with huge white walls with the old style wheel found on the "new" re-release Celica-Supra. The cars were gorgeous in shape, but were in abismal condition. Rusted out axels, bent axels, scratched/chipped paint... kinda regret not getting those either.

Also passed on a new model stude at a Ralphs the other day... the black tires w/ lettering look sexy...

Me and my brother really done some damage today on our wallets.:drool: Went in Kit Kringle and we got 13 cars in all, i got 6, he got 7!:drool: Very rarely does my brother ever buy more Hot Wheels than i do, but this was one of the few times he did, last time i recall this happening was back in 2008! We got alot of vehicles we really liked there and as a matter of fact they had the Express Lane and the Radio Flyer Wagon there when we looked.;) Will post pictures of our purchases later, however im not going to post all 13 of them at once, don't want to flood this page with pictures.;)
 
@ a6: what color interior & base on that Ferrari?

Also, Just got back from a 13 mile bike ride. Stopped at every store I thought might have Hotwheels. Only came home with a'12 Corvette Z06 error (Grand Sport Body), a Silver Boss 302 with a GT body, and a yellow nightburnerz Civic Si to add to my collection. Didn't find anything else. :indiff:

At the Target I stopped at, while glancing at their 9 packs, I found TWO of them that had '12 Z06's with Grand Sport Bodies, and another one that had one of the flat black Triumphs, completely missing it's front wheels. :lol:

I hate finding single cars I want in the gift packs, don't want to spend $10 for all those cars when I only need 1 of them. :(
