If you guys ever start reselling, don't forget your gtplanet brotherhood special premium discount! :lol:

Izuzu ISUZU Vehicross
I have soft spot for that one. Damn shame that car didn't catch on. So unique!

Some sneak peeks from HWC you guys might be interested in:
I'd be freaking out over the 935 & Texas Drive 'Em right about now, if it weren't for the RLC Texas Drive 'Em I already have & also Road Racer 935 on the way. :D Brat, I'd love to get it, if merchants ever restock Boulevard/Hot Ones. Astro, again, they absolutely butchered my all-time favorite midi-van. I'm still buying one. :crazy:
Do I just post my list on there?
These are the cars from the Boo-Hoo seller I mentioned a few days ago.
I think you'll find out very quickly why I wanted them to arrive ASAP.
God those tires. :crazy: While they don't really do anything for me, I can just sense how special & rare these cars must be. Sounds like you got a deal on this one(even with a delay lol). Thanks for sharing man. Quite a treat to see detailed pics on the pair. 👍

There are three sets available worldwide...and the cheapest after shipping would run you $50. I STOLE these for $3.25 because the seller had them listed in the collectibles section of eBay as HO scale train accessories. :lol:

Well.. yeah. Other than the customs thread I abandoned, most topics I've made in there are meant to get you guys talking, except most of you never go there.
 
Yeah, but would you want to use this thread to list down cars you're looking for? The place where posts get buried in 4 days or less? As an example, remember how much of a hassle it was to sort out our trade?

I made the topic in such a place because it's not as socially active, and that's what makes our lists easier to find.

Jesus, you are pretty good at hounding these things down. :crazy:

Because we have here.
I was thinking the same, but I do see Andy's point. Maybe we can get SVX to help us with this? Maybe see if he could create us a link in the original post for something like Andy's suggesting? That might come in handy for any future trades & proposals.

I agree. 👍

Beware this discussion doesn't become a mix of this:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=179
and this:
http://pages.ebay.com/services/forum/feedback.html

Or else, before we know it, the Customisation and Diorama discussions will also soon be 'here'.

Nice to see all the recent pick-ups . . . some great collections going on. :) What I love about this thread is all the pics and descriptions of all the great cars being collected. Good stuff. 👍
 
Forget yours, Shinji, I found my first Treasure Hunt for this year!

ChevyCamaroSSTH_zpsc8bc09e3.jpg


Really didn't expect to see it at Dufferin's Walmart whatsoever. It was situated in the bottom left peg at the back. Saw a police car, definitely picked out that it was one I didn't have. Paused for a second and said to myself, "It's probably just a regular". It's because I keep finding regular versions of Supers that an automated thought like that was generated. But just then at that moment I remembered that this Camaro doesn't have a Super version, I got excited and slowly scanned the side of the body for the logo, and alas I've found it! Absolutely made my day.

Aside from that, I got these in the mail today:

I need to stop buying cars from ToyworldUSA. He's asking a lot per car, but I keep buying since he has stuff no other sellers got (or for lower prices for that matter).

 
He's running out of stuff to show and is afraid to admit it. :P

Woah nelly!!! This thread is moving fast. What are you guys using, nitrous? :P

R1600Turbo

Nice, that 935 is on my list.....now.

AOS-
First Editions, anyone? :)

I have that same R32 back when I was a kid. Thanks to GT and becoming a Skyline fan since then, I made a statement that I will find every Skyline GTR out there. And I still got it :D.

The Lotus Esprit, got him when I was a kid also. GT and Test Drive got me into the Lotus brand and I always loved the Esprits. I had to persuade my mom into letting me buy the car by giving the car's specs and info from GT2. Still have him :D.

And I have that Aston V8 Vantage as well. Same color and everything. :sly:

If any of you "gotta have it now" people want the Toyota 2000GT $uper, this is probably the best deal right now.
Thank you bro. I wasn't going to give in, and I prefer carded, but price is right, and I don't have to wait. :P
Woah nelly!!! This thread is moving fast. What are you guys using, nitrous? :P
I need a ten-second thread!

*Edit: Oh yeah, nice secret th there Andy. 👍 I'd be really impressed if I didn't find TWO of them. :lol:

More Matchbox

A couple weeks ago I posted the following picture...

...with the intent of separating the Macau made matches from the herd.


When I sat down to it, though, I thought "why stop there?"
As I get more Jammer...errr Thread Organizers, I'll post up the rest.

First up it's "I love the 90s, strikes back!"

I noticed it when I took the pictures of my jammer/thread case, but I really like how the clear plastic brightens up the photos by bringing the light in.
 
:0 I need one of those 62 Vettes to turn into a gasser, the next theme in the club meet-up!

Also, some of those hangover paint schemes are a real nightmare :lol: I love them
 
My turn, my turn! I'm going to post some of my collection, I picked out the more interesting ones. Feel free to comment and please tell me if any are valuable (I'm looking at you, Cano). Sorry for the low quality photos.
