1/64 Model Collectors Thread

just got paid today so ill look up some ways to send all the f1s i got. Can i flat package hot wheels? Id hate to send like three or four packages

Oh, you can cut off the top portion of cardboard on mine. Leave it in the blister but remove the excess card. that should let you fit a really small parcel (which you can make on your own). no need for paper or bubble wrap. I have more than enough sitting in my room and I certainly don't need anymore.

Blah blah blah nothing to see here.

Move On

Just bought my '70 Challenger for my Vanishing Point diorama. 👍

 

[OtakuTaikun]

Ok so i have 9 F1 GTRs three of which are going to AOS, at least one to medigo and at least one to commodoreben. So fpur left.

Pm me your info guys and ill ship em off asap. Ill also look into paypal >.> busy as 🤬 this week

 

[a6m5]

Yep, gullwing. You can't trump that.

Not a Mercedes fan, but I gotta admit, this one's pretty sweet.

Correction on this, it does in fact open. There's just no bike in the back.

Generally, I'd agree with Cano in regards to the busy tampo job, but I actually like this scheme. Throwback video game packaging's also money in the BANK!

Here's the mail-in car: (I would be willing to help someone out to get one, if they pay)

I'm sure it's more than I can afford, but how much would this thing cost? The van is awesome. 👍

Retail price of 20 mainline cars + $3.50 for shipping.

Boy....... I'm on board, if you are willing to help me.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Sure. We can plan it out better next week, if you want all 20 cars needed or we can add whatever is needed on top of the cars I buy, etc. Remember the cars have to be opened, because you have to send the blister cards to Mattel with the receipt.

Yeah, sounds cool. 👍 I'm not really picky on the cars, so I'm 110% OK on working around whatever purchase plan you may have, or end up buying. Thanks man, sounds like a plan. 👍

 

[Spacegoat]

I just read what he had to say, and it's harsh. He's very serious about Tomicas for sure!

For some reason while reading it, I was reminded of Cano.

In response to all those Tomicas you've put up here, I raise you mine, which I have only bought this Sunday...

Dude. 👍........And I've just added the Tomica SLS to my near bottomless list of "wants".

 

[CodeRedR51]

Wait, do you not have a KMart around you?

 

[a6m5]

Dude. 👍........And I've just added the Tomica SLS to my near bottomless list of "wants".

Wooo, this is going to be a race. I don't know how much it is yet, but I want one, too.

It's on, like Donkey Kong!

Wait, do you not have a KMart around you?

Yeah, I just didn't want to go.

Are you saying that I can just do this myself, or what?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah, I just didn't want to go.

Are you saying that I can just do this myself, or what?

Yeah!

I mainly posted that for people that can't get to one. (like Cano) But if you're too lazy to go, I guess I can help.

You win, I'm waiting until the 370z and Megane I've ordered arrive. Oh and I can forget about the Toyota 86 in black, it's a limted edtion. Probably worth it, but I don't want one that badly.

 

[a6m5]

Yeah!

You know what, I'm gonna go. Next Saturday, right? Maybe I'll get a Treasure Hunt out of it.

I went on eBay to price check, ended up ordering one. It was $7.55, U.S. Some Tomicas every now & then, break up the collection a bit from that same old, same old!

limted edtion.

Sweet box, but yeah, I wouldn't pay that.

This has been up forever.

There's also one FT86 left from the same seller. I thought of grabbing those but I was like nah.

FT86's nothing to write home about, but for me, it's another one of those cars that's just different to have around. I saved couple of bucks on the Mercedes through my seller.

 

[RCKakashi14]

About this black 86:

Our local distributor spread 500 of these, and it costs the same as a regular Tomica.

Now that's a steal.

 

[AOS-]

Lots of parcels came in today. So I'll gladly take my time with this

Apparently it cost $16 to ship these. vintagejapaneseparts is a seller to avoid.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anyone need the Chaparrel 2D first edition?

Edit: too late.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Liking the black GT-86! They could at least just redo the logo on it and sell it in the US as an FR-S...

AND A NEW R34!!!!!!!!!!

WHAAAA!!??? I WANT!! MUST HOARD!!! (kidding about the hoarding...maybe)

Ok so i have 9 F1 GTRs three of which are going to AOS, at least one to medigo and at least one to commodoreben. So fpur left.

Pm me your info guys and ill ship em off asap. Ill also look into paypal >.> busy as 🤬 this week

I'll PM my stuff. Thanks! 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Idea: from now on, on Friday nights, if some of you have nothing to do between 6:30 to 7:30 PDT, frequently keep up with this thread during that time.

I'm seeing A LOT of stuff at this Hotwheels meet that I know you guys would want, and most of the cars are anywhere from $.50 to $2.00 each. Stuff like Chaparrel 2D's, Lancia Stratos, Mercedes-Benz CLK-LM's, etc, etc. I'll post things when I see them, and if you want it you should speak up pronto!

Or just miss out.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Do they have Speed Machines there? Or any Matchbox cars?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yes and yes. Plus RLC cars, treasure hunts, Johnny Lightning, etc.

 

[Cano]

I'm game for Friday night virtual meetings. Any 70s-80s cars? redlines? How much for the RLC stuff? PICTURES!!!

 

[MedigoFlame]

Feel bad if I'm going to list some off... Thought it'd be small. "Thought..." May as well set up a PayPal account now.

Any Tomicas?

 

[AOS-]

SPEED MACHINES & CLK-LMs PLEASE! I need to make up for being totally ripped off.

Pictures might be hard to get. The oldest stuff I saw was early 90's. I got an original release MR2 tonight (blue card) for 75 cents.

No Tomicas, sorry.

The CLK-LM I saw was red. I also saw a bunch of the Porsche 911 GT1's (the LeMans car) for cheap. One guy brings an old moving van to the meet, opens the back door and it's full of cars. You walk in and look around. His basics are $2 and it goes up from there. Lots to choose from though.

I got 8 cars tonight. Couple MR2's, few Pikes Peak Tacoma's, a Pikes Peak Celica, Dodge Neon Drag Car and an HKS Altezza all for $10. Also, don't expect mint packages on most of the cars, but the cars themselves are mint.

Well, I'll be waiting for next friday then :0 did any of the 911 GT1s had the livery posted by Wyvern some days ago? If so, could you please pick that one up next friday?

 

[AOS-]

Not that I care about mint packages too much, but a "mobile compact shop" I imagine would be one hell of an exciting shopping experience. I don't have any CLK-LMs, I'd get a bunch of those, a few more 911 GT1's (grab me a couple next time you go, hopefully they aren't over $3), Pikes Peak Tacomas, and any other older race cars. I need 'em for my White Series.
