Amazing grabs!! :eek: Wish I knew of more places that sold that much stuff, my local flea market's nearly empty for diecast cars. What car is the Choro Q?

The show that I attend every 6 weeks is really good. Costs $4 to get in the door, but the selection is great.
Also, our monthly flea markets kick 🤬 !!

Anyway....
Here's the bottom of the car.

I spent a good 5 minutes trying to transorm the Bandai Fiero without luck.
Seeing as I was 2 when these came out, I have no idea how they work.
Perhaps you might be able to figure it out if you see some pics?

Edit: Oh, snap. I tried searching for this on the Japanese language end, and I discovered another one of my toys from when I was a toddler: Machine Robo

I'm not familiar with Go Bots, but it might be another American show based off of Japanese toys? I wouldn't be surprised if my jet took part in the show also. Crazy old memories!

Edit: I couldn't find anymore info, but according to this page, they never sold the toy in Japan. Just like the real Fieros. As far as I know. :lol:

Here, have these.



Hot Wheels Lexus SC300 (IIRC), no name, based off a FJ40.



Matchbox Ford Mustang Fastback (potential for a restore), Matchbox Ford Bronco or F-150? I've got another version of this somewhere, I'm pretty sure. :lol:



Unknown promotional touring car (based of an Alfa 155 most probably), Matchbox Land Rover Defender.


More soon, if I get 'round to it, that is. :lol:

After the recent purchases seen in this thread, I decided to go to the flea market myself. :D Though, still not much new. However, the normally overpriced vendor is reducing their prices. Last time they had T-hunts for $4, so maybe...they'll bring it down to three...? Anyways:

Just got a tip that Kroger stores have Hotwheels on sale with a club card until December 1st. Will check tonight and report findings.
 
Oh yeah fellas, I forgot to post my K-Day acquisitions. :D

8159747210_d6251027f1_c.jpg

The left column is my what my girlfriend got between K-Mart, Big Lots, and Family Dollar. Mine too are a mix of those stores.
Everything else is mine except for the pig. I got that for my mom because she collects pig stuff.

8159748486_c72bd86869_c.jpg

K-Mart also had these. It would have been very tempting had I not only had $17 on me.

8159715217_fcc6b1ec31_c.jpg

And this is what I got this evening. The left column is K-Mart and everything else is from a store in the mall called "Smart Toys". Notice the prices on those. :eek: Their three packs used to be $6!
Does anyone have those three 2013s yet?

Hooray! You got the Bel Air & the new Hachiroku! 👍

I really like the Atari bus with wood on the side. I also picked that one up & the Tempest. Aren't they sweet? :D

Wow, so no one has the Bel Air yet either? :dunce:

Oh yes, that is my favorite as well. My uncle's set has the original release of that GMC Motorhome; the orange one. 👍
I hope you mean the casting and not the tampos. I mean, yes the tampos are of premium quality, but I think they're too much on these cars. I like the Pong Chevy truck thing too. :D

Jason was the first one to get the Bel Air(from the 3-pack). Which tampo are you referring to? I actually liked all of them though. :P

P.S. Nice pic, Jason. I hope I can find one soon, along with the Chevy. 👍
 
So they even put Chinese model number on it, which I assume from the "CN" prefix, but they still print the title in English & Japanese...... not Chinese. Oooookay? :dunce:

That is rather odd. :lol:
Are you happy with the quality of the car Magic, or is it crap like that blog guy said? :lol:

I'm no expert but I've got no complaints about the quality of the casting. Now, the crappy Tomica wheels.......well, that's a different story. :lol:
 
Sounds like you should look into wheel swapping, too. I'm getting into that end of it eventually, since Hot Wheels can't produce real riders for half the cars I like. :dopey:
 
Yeah, wheel swapping and customizing is something, I've been trying to resist for some time. Eventually though, I'm going give it a go and try my hand at it.

Several of us have obtained one a few weeks ago.


Also, I think I'm starting to like the Matchbox Toyota FJ40 after seeing two purple ones looking like they're rock crawling over my phone and iPod.

Purple's just.... :yuck:

I have OD green, and was it Harry who had the old, original-looking color ones? I like those a lot better. Brown Willys and purple Land Cruisers, I've picked up off the pegs, then put back again, more than once. :lol:
