1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Guess you can say that I blacklisted Redlines. For the sake of saving my money.

Hah. Legit excuse. Watchu know about money?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Oh yeah R1600, you have any spare yellow S2Ks or 370Zs you're not using or don't have anything planned with them yet?

And let me know when you're going back to the Friday meets too. And can you give me the total of how much I owe you also? I won't have the money yet this week, but if you give me the total, I can see how much I need. Thanks in advance. 👍

1) No S2k's or 370's, but I do have an extra Silver R34.

2) I noticed last night I actually have 4 911 GT2's, you want all 4 or which 3?

---------------------------------

I was browsing eBay last night and came across this seller that is completely crazy if he thinks he's going to get what he has his cars listed for. The photos for his cars always have a ruler in them with the word "Lefty" on it. He had a beat up Miata listed as "needs a paint job" for $10. A Honda Civic Si (EP3) with a custom silver paint job (no wheel swap or any detailing) for $38. And that's just the start. Guy is nuts.

I know you did the right thing for it by blacklisting redlines.

 

[Anathema]

Are you sure you still have that? I bought one just like it on eBay.

Yeah. I don't use eBay when selling anything, I have to use Amazon. And I wouldn't ever sell it.

Here she is, in fact:

Wait, I thought that black GT2 was for me?

 

[Nessy]

With that RA28 2000 GT Celica, and those CM's rally cars, you guys sure know how to make a fella jella. 👍 👍

Cool Tomi limited's too Spacegoat. 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Wait, I thought that black GT2 was for me?

That would make 5 total.

Am I missing something? Yours is marked off already, leaving 4 left. He wanted "the 3 GT2's" so that leaves 1 left. I just need him to clarify which 3.

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

Damn, i didn't know MB released a 917 with side graphics, man that thing looks awesome...i just have the Deep green one

 

[McZachenF1138]

I was remembering the picture and I only saw four cars, my bad.

 

[Nessy]

I have that orange 914, also have the lime green one (no side tampo though). I think they do a yellow one too.

I have an extra black GT2 lying around if you want... 2 actually. I think.

I know you did the right thing for it by blacklisting redlines.

For the cheapest I can get Redlines for, I rather spend the money on CMS and Kyoshos.

Isn't this what the trading post is for?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah, but you have to be premium to post threads there.

 

[diabolicwyvern]

I edited the post and asked for offers through PM only.

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

Sooo wanted to share some more of my 1:64 scale collection:

Please ignore the dust, they will get a good cleaning.

It's so impossible to keep my 1:64 scales clean...all the damn carpet..

Currently at 2.98 GBP... It's got a few nice rides up there.

Click on image to hit up its ebay page. I'd buy it but I'm declaring that I'm e-broke.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I bought 2 more Pikes Peak Celica's last night (see below) for $7 shipped. I'm e-broke now until Friday.

Got my eyes on something special but the auction doesn't end for another 4 days.

Edit: Someone should jump on this.

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

Wanted to take some new photos in my new photo booth, have to say, turned out quite nice.

Saw that before. Bug OR Camaro.

Okay, I'll have the yellow, red and white GT2, since I have the blue one already. Whenever you can give me a PM later. And yes add the silver R34 into my box.

And that's one crazy seller right there, $10 bucks for a beat up car?! 👍

Wait, I thought that black GT2 was for me?

There was?! Good eye, but I'll get one of those later .

 

[CodeRedR51]

Saw that before. Bug OR Camaro.

And there's only 4 total, in 60+ cases.

But cars from those years are worth enough now that you could at least make your money back. Might be worth it.

 

[a6m5]

Oh now I really like that. Damnit, now I want it.

I'm out of the loop - are those 1:64 scale? Either way they look great.

They all are. That's why I threw in the quarter with the Jag. By themselves, those cars look like they are 1:43 or something!

those hakosuka's are Hotwheels, i just detailed them, from the interior(guages..etc to new wheels, The LS430/celsior is a motormax, and is one of my best details yet, even has felt. Glad you like them, also the R34 is also a Hotwheels, You see back when i didn't have a job, i would just detail my own hotwheels, I would get "Is that a tomica limited" alot or even kyosho to... I still love to detail today aswell

Motormax, eh? Interesting.... Great job on the detailing. 👍

Yeah. I don't use eBay when selling anything, I have to use Amazon. And I wouldn't ever sell it.

Here she is, in fact:

I was just kidding, of course. I really did buy one just like it though, last year:

It's so impossible to keep my 1:64 scales clean...all the damn carpet..

............................. and you are starting to post in here now? Where have you been?

Click on image to hit up its ebay page. I'd buy it but I'm declaring that I'm e-broke.

Dude, $20 shipping? I'm interested, but not $20 shipping-interested.

 

[Spacegoat]

Care to add another? Screw you Jarrod! Give the cars to MEEEE!!!!

Sooo wanted to share some more of my 1:64 scale collection:

Great collection, any idea on how many cars you actually have? And I wouldn't worry about the dust, all of my models are covered in it too.

Also it appears that you live in a cave.

Today i bough this Hot Wheels Corolla AE86 model (photos are not mine)

Im a big fan of the Initial D series and i always wanted to have a AE86 Diecast, and at least in my country was barely impossible to find. But, as you can see, the paintjob in this car is kinda lame and inacurated (mine is even more inacurated), and even its only inspired on the Takumi´s Trueno, including a diferent japanese writing on the doors. Im thinking about the possibility of remove all the white details (maybe keep only the white hood decals) and keep it solid black... or transform in a missile car.

I don´t know if this car was already posted here, i searched at least in the last 10 pages and i didn´t found.

What you guys think about this car?

Original pictures from this review

 

[diabolicwyvern]

This Fairmont comes from a hot wheels mini set and yet it's going for this much. It's not that rare. Just because the other items the seller has are, this $8 car is going crazy.

Haulers Anyone?

 

[a6m5]

Crunch time(20 minutes left)! I have no idea the car's true worth, but it does seem like a lot.

I don´t know if this car was already posted here, i searched at least in the last 10 pages and i didn´t found.

Yeah, half the people in here already have the car. I probably have three of them.

As for the inaccuracy to the Initial D car, while the design obviously suggests hachiroku from the comic book, it's not meant to be a replica. I'd love it if they ponied up the copyright money & created one though.

What you guys think about this car?

I like it, but it's gotten mixed reaction from the members here.

 

[CodeRedR51]

So I stopped by Target again. Checked on Monday night and there was nothing new, stock room said "No" so I skipped Tuesday and swung by again tonight. They had received a few cars, and the stock room still said "No".

WTF.

 

[AOS-]

If anyone's looking for a silver R34, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-Wheels-...Action_Figures_Diecast_US&hash=item484f88ed9f got it at $1.75 right now. Ends in 3 days. $5.75 shipping, go buy more stuff.

Wanted to take some new photos in my new photo booth, have to say, turned out quite nice.

I don't see why you can't take this booth a step further. What other sheet material do you have on you?

Did you ask the exact same person? Not everyone in department stores know everything and some of them make up dates to end the conversation as soon as possible.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I haven't talked to anyone. You can check the inventory yourself using the price scanners around the store.
