P.S. I thought Magic Goat Johnson might be Asian, and was convinced AOS was white. Perception's a funny thing. :lol:

Perception is a funny thing, I never realised you were asian until you posted this.

Took me a while to find that. :P
Asians don't like Holdens enough to make it their avatar...that's how you know. :P

Exactly. :lol:!
I'm a skinny little white boy as well. About the same size as Goat Johnson over there. :lol:

:lol:👍
 
................ that geek can't be me, dude.

Of all the pictures of me on gtplanet, you had to see that one. :lol:
 
IIRC, I was thinking about picking up a Carolina Panthers or a Hornets hat at the time of that thread and all this talk today. I suddenly remembered that pic. :lol:

Oh and does this mean we can now call Cano, "My rear"?, I mean that is his last name, isn't it? :sly:

Oh my god, I always pictured you as a pale(:P) Canadian dude. So we got you, me, Medigo(Vietnamese?)...... three Asians in here? Jason thinks he's Asian(JDM), but with his name, I'm pretty sure he's a white. :lol:

I am indeed Vietnamese. As for R1600, there's plenty of Caucasians who are obsessed with Asian things. :lol: And now thanks to that Psy bloke, now everyone thinks we all dance around like him.

When in doubt, guess Chinese. Largest population in the world; can't go wrong. Don't actually think like that though. It's going to get you murdered. :P Yes I'm Chinese... Medigo's may flip out when he reads this.

Chinese? Curses! I remember when I guessed that you were Vietnamese due to your last name. Although, I do think you told me that a long time ago when we set up our first trade. :P

You guys may want to pay attention to multi-packs. You just might stumble upon something special...

Oh man, with this Vette hiding itself and that orange Genesis 3.8 Track, gotta save up now.

You're going to break my wallet for Xmas Jason. :P:lol:

Interesting.

Anyway nice cars McZachenF1138! That Corvette, the F-100 and the Mystery Machine are awesome! Im still yet to find the mystery machine, my wal mart sucks, as a matter of fact those f1's and that Motorhome, my wal mart doesn't even carry them!:mad: The F1's are really cool and that Motorhome certainly rocks the Atari design, I would know because i actually own a real Atari myself.;)

You have a Atari?! My older brothers use to have a Atari, THE ORIGINAL Atari, I think it was the 2600 one. Real nice! I mostly have a SNES Nintendo system from the late 80's-early 90's ;), but I need to get it fixed soon.

And @McZ, I'm gonna do a Cano like A6 right now....... McZ, you lucky....... A Mystery Machine already?! :mad::crazy:

*drinks some water*

But nice pickups, you gotta love the jackpot times in this hobby :D.

True, but it makes them too easy to miss nowadays, i have probly passed by many of them and didn't know it.

It's seems like a win-loss situation now :indiff:, but look under the car or look at the car to find a HW symbol on the body to tell if it's either a TH or $TH.

You can call me Asian since I love JDM cars, especially Skylines/GT-Rs and Supras. Oh wait, Add German since I love RS machines like 911s, M-powered cars, AMG-powered etc.... :lol:

But I'm a 23, 6"0 Black, Italian, Native American, Irish and a little bit of Latin decent. My middle name is Figueroa, from my mom's side who have some Latin family with American Indian and Italian and Black. My dad's side is mostly Black and Irish.

Thats me a mixed black guy, but I love my JDM, AUDM and EUDM cars like crazy, more than my love for USDM cars, but it's always Mopar or no car though.;)👍:lol:

And I love the Asian culture also. ;)
 
So I had planned on going to the local grocery store this morning on my way to work as I've been keeping an eye on them lately due to collectors finding new 4-sided shippers at Kroger stores. I've been having a problem with my left ear the last few days so I had to deal with that this morning. Because of that I had to leave my apartment later than I wanted. So on the way decided to stop by the Walgreens on the corner.

They've had enough room on the Hotwheels pegs at this store to put out maybe 8-10 cars. So I've been keeping an eye on it. This morning walked in and all the same cars were on the pegs except one....a Minion Pig on a 2013 card. :odd: Immediately I was like, "where's the rest?" then looked down to the end of the isle to see a cardboard shipper hanging. :eek:

Walked over and started going through it. Second row down, all the way to the right and behind 1 car was this:

:D
 
How about I just buy it off you so you can take that money to go buy a Falcon off someone else?

Better yet, how about I give you my blue and red Falcon instead? I'll paint the wheels red and red + blue = purple. 2 cars is better than 1 after all...
 
Damn you! I have the Mitsubushi Double Shotz and Gangster Grin from years ago and I want to find the Honda and Chevrelator.

Yep i do!:) The 2600 Atari that is.:sly: My mom got one of them things back when they were brand new, along with a bunch games!:D If i get any of these Atari series Hot Wheels, im going to post a picture of them posing next to the real Atari itself.:sly:

Thanks for the advice!👍
 
Stopped by the flea market and got these for a dollar each:

The Designer Challenges were $4 only at the speciality store when I found them. They never had the Gangster Grin nor Mitsubishi...other than that, I have one of each though not every colour variation.
 
It was really nice getting introduced to some of you guys. Vspec was a surprise. :lol:

Post a pic when you get your hat! 👍 I like NBA, but not crazy about the hats. NFL, even worse. :P I prefer MLB hats man. I like almost all National League teams. :)
The card is slightly bent though from the shipper. :grumpy:
Cry me a river. I really hope I find a S-TH someday.
Indeed it is!
Nice. 👍

How about, R16 trade's for the $uper Falcon and then sends it to me? I'll purchase and send him one of these in return. :sly:

Honestly, I had completely forgotten about the hats. I still plan to get one but there's so many others thing's on my radar at the moment. It's probably not going to be for a while. :lol: I'm still planning on getting one though.

Can't wait to see the cars along with the system soon. 👍

Ditto here. Great to meet everyone here who's into cars and collecting HWs and other scales as well.
