1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[Cano]

The black Testarossa with Blackwalls is pretty uncommon.

 

[McZachenF1138]

Really? I wouldn't have guessed that. That's actually the Ferrari I like the least out of what I got.
I got it because it was a Hot Wheels Ferrari and those are pretty much always going to be collectible.

 

[Cano]

Those have got to be some of the last appearances of the original blackwall wheels in the basic line.

Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. Uh-huh, and no, I didn't go to eBay right after, I never do that.

Does that Testarossa have big emblem on the hood?

 

[Snaeper]

I'm about to give up on this hobby if I keep coming back to this thread anymore! I see so many cars I want and cannot possibly begin to try to purchase them all.

Are people now going to go crazy over this just because T-Hunted posted a picture of it?

No, not me anyhow. Im going crazy because there rereleasing the flintmobile!

How did people go crazy about the Dan Weldon anyhow? It was the only card with a big UK flag in the back... was it going to be a series or something?

 

[McZachenF1138]

They probably thought it was special.
I would buy it because he was a great driver and person, but mostly to honor his memory.

Not really. It's another movie car so that usually says "take them all" to scalpers.

It had rubber tires. Rubber tires in mainline usually means "$uper TH", plus given the situation they were all snagged up. I managed to find quite a few of them, only kept 1.

This absolutely.

I figured it was the rubber tires. So what stopped it from being considered a Super?

 

[CodeRedR51]

It wasn't in the Super TH series. Was just a mainline chase car.

 

[a6m5]

Yeah, even that sillyass Batmobile(also the green label series) is harder to find. I passed on one, then I changed my mind like a week later. I didn't see one for probably three weeks after that.

Flintstone car is something I'd like to get, but to be honest, I'd probably buy 2, or 3 for myself, then another one for my nephew. Sorry.

 

[AOS-]

I'd buy only one of those unless I can make some REALLY goofy mod with it.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

McZ.... I'm real jelly of those cars you got!

Love the 911 GT1 especially. 👍

 

[Spacegoat]

Same reason why I wanted one. 👍

I honestly wasn't even aware it had rubber tires, until I finally came across one last week.

 

[commodoreben]

I don't even want to think about it. Really, I need to control myself a bit more.

Where's the fun in controlling your self? There is a swap meet on this weekend near my house. Its going to have classic car aswell as diecasts. The guy I normally buy hotwheels off from the flea market is going to be there and he is bringing something very special from the mid 90's for me. I can see this is going to be an expensive weekend for me.

I've yet to find one.

 

[Spacegoat]

I wouldn't worry about it mate, I'm sure you'll eventually find one. 👍

Hopefully.

Man, that El Camino is one of my favorite 1:1 Hot Wheels.
Hell, I love them all.

 

[commodoreben]

I love that El Camino. Do they make a scale one? Also I just ordered a 1:64th model of the Bloodhound SSC Rocket car thats going for the land speed record next year.

 

[Cano]

haha, cute way of seeing it. Yeh I just blew 50 bucks in 100% sets.

Pics.

 

[McZachenF1138]

I though about ordering one as well, but that is waayyy too steep a price. Maybe for $20 I'd buy it, but not for $114!

Finally found one red Exige yesterday.

And I grabbed a whole bunch of Maistos from work, all of which are going to be customized or donors:

I'm going to try potting a small plant in there, one that doesn't grow big nor need a lot of sunlight.
