latest purchases.
 
Why did you get 2 Skylines exactly the same?:odd: Plus don't you already have other R34s?
 
I'm going to respray/modify one. The r34 just came out and those 2 silver ones are the first two i've seen. I do have one r32 skyline thats it.
 
I just went to A kmart today.. but only had stuff I have already, I got one '09 but no blue skyline, fangster, toyota fj or any others there. I guess I'll have to keep looking:tdown:

Update: I did find the blue skyline last night, but still not the other two. I have a few others I got as well.

I picked up one of the regular shelby hunts this week at a Target. Walked in just to get out of the heat and thought I would check the hotwheels. Didn't look recently stocked but found the hunt behind a couple other cars. Lucky day I guess.
 
I've left behind like 20 of those. They are incredibly ugly. Same for the Ford GTX-1, the other day I left like 15 regulars in the shelves. It's horrid. Really, I'm done this year for THs. If I see a $uper I'll grab it because I know how rare they are, but regulars are just peh... This year the only THs worth a damn were the blue Packard and the Torino... and the Cadillac, more or less. All other were absolutely pathetic. I'ts even worse when one sees back at 2009, the best TH year in HWs history.

Here's hoping that '11 will be better in that area. For this year, I've closed shop.
 
Well since I don't have a job at the moment I haven't been out hunting in weeks. If I'm at a store for something else I'll check them out for the hell of it. This was my first Shelby hunt so I didn't hesitate to buy it.

Also, the 2011 cars will start hitting stores in mid October. Mattel posted the first group of them on their website Friday.

wow. Check your pms. I have sent you my adress, so you can send over those Majorettes. Thanks.
 
Went to the Toys 'R' Us that I haven't been to in years, and picked up a purple C6 Corvette mystery car, the purple Panoz speed machine, the McLaren F1 GTR speed machine, and a blue Ferrari 308 cabrio. I passed up a LOT of cars, including the Tyrell, the Skyline GT-R, the 599XX speed machine, a nice black 599GTB speed machine, an H2GO, a blue Ferrari 330 P4, a Ferrari 308 race car, a Ferrari Daytona race car, and several others. Why? I didn't want them enough to buy them (especially in the Speed Machines' case). I'm starting to REALLY want that Ferrari 5-pack with the white Enzo in it.

But I did get 30 Hot Wheels straight tracks, because my dad, my brother and I still race our Hot Wheels on occasion. :D

I've always wanted those superGT cars from Muscle Machines but they hardly turn up on e-bay.

Also, the Matchbox Volvo P1800 is hitting the stores now, it's awesomely beautiful, I've got mine in my hand. Keep your eyes peeled:

I just got this car yesterday, and it is awesome. One of the best cars matchbox has ever made.
 
Man.. I used to have buttloads of Hot Wheels when I was younger(I'm 16 now). I gave most of them to my cousin a couple of years ago and these are the only ones I have in good enough shape to post.. Tell me what you guys think

These are all part of a little set. I think I've had these since 2002.. ?
 
They are nice. Especially the rear of the Corvette.

At my work, this vendor is doing a hot wheel promotion, so with every delivery, they bring in free hot wheels, right? The thing is, they look really strange, like they are from a third world country or something.

I never buy from this company, but this kid had few of them, so I was looking at them. One of them was one of my favorite, BMW 8-Series from when I was weiner's age. So I trade a soda for it:

This isn't my picture, but it's exactly the same model, packaging. The strange design of the packaging & the model? I read the back, it's copyrighted in 1991. The frigging hot wheels this company's giving away, they are nearly 20 years old! :lol:

Your Bimmer is what I'm talking about :lol: Seriously you're lucky to get that car mate!

I love the actual, real car. The model looks like crap though. :lol:

It's just that it was right there, at work, where you don't expect to see a toy. I just couldn't resist making an offer. :P
