Hey, I have that invisible car(bottom-right). Nice Sikus, Kakashi. 👍
Damn you and your retro cars.
Easy, Cano. Eaaasy.
They've also got the Muppets bus and the A-Team van. Other than that there's just KARRs and the S&B Firebirds. :P I'll be back for the A-Team van.
How much were the Retros, Medigo? I think I ended up shelling out something like $8 or something on eBay for the Ghostbuster's car. I don't care about KITT, but I'm probably gonna be on a lookout for the A-Team.

P.S. Nice haul buddy. 👍 Going from empty handed to coming home with some hard-to-find cars. Very cool!


Also found the Matchbox 60th anniversary cars at TRU...
And how much were they? Damn it, I've been looking for them. They go for crazy money on eBay. :crazy:
 
Those Siku Wiesmanns... :drool: Want one of those! Love the look of Wiesmanns.

I could get you the A-Team van if you want it, although there's only two left in the store. I'll try and drop by tomorrow to get them and Cano's KARR. If anyone else wants a Retro Entertainment car, hit me up. ;)

Indeed I did go from nothing for several months to some interesting pick-ups! :D

Not sure about the prices for the 60th anniversary cars, they were all on a 5-Pack Matchbox peg and I couldn't find their proper peg anywhere. They have the gold Mini, orange tractor, Mustang coupe, VW Bus, and Evo X police car.

I have the Honda Civic Type-Rs you've been after but you never contact me about them. :(

I'm good, thanks. Sorry about that, I completely forgot to respond. :scared: I don't really need them after buying the green Civic Type R.

@Medigo, let me see what tomicas I can dig out, but I don't really have much.

It's alright if you don't have much on offer for Tomicas, I'll ask for something else that you might be able to trade. Any other Retro Entertainment cars you want other than KARR? I'll stop by TRU tomorrow to grab some more for you guys and I'll just need a list of what you and other members want to grab them all in one go.

God, that is a generous offer, and I really want the 60th Anniversary stuff, but I don't wanna trouble you. Also, I think I might eventually see some of those cars in my area. Maybe. :P

Thanks for offering though, I appreciate it. 👍

They are everywhere, and you start checking those pegs more & more frequently. :lol:

I should pick up that Camaro SS already. Those black rims are nice, and would love to have one on hand when I eventually get into wheel swaps.
 
Id like one of each retro entertainment car that they have Medigo, but I dont have anything to trade and you dont have paypal. There is a shop near me that sells siku's and they nearly always have Wiesmanns. If you wanted them I could get you some. Ill check what else they have for you tomorrow. I also found my second TH for the year. Its the Camaro Police Car on a short card. Pics to come over the weekend.

Siku's would be cool to add to the collection! What other diecast cars does Siku make? And what Retro Entertainment car do you want? My store only has Knight Rider KARR, A-Team Van, Muppets bus, Smokey & The Bandit Firebird.

Edit: Going to need some specific info on what cars people want for the Retro Entertainment requests.

Altough I was talking about the Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am, I'll also take a Carr and a A Team van, please (:

Oh! Well, the Smokey & The Bandit's car is actually a Firebird, not a Trans Am. That's what confused me. :P

Edit: Is there even an official site for Siku? Only found a "shop" that's a complete mess. I just want to see a list of the current cars they have. Not their farming diecast models. :boggled:

Edit2: Just to let people know, there's probably about 2 S&B Firebirds, 2 Muppets Buses, 2 or 3... Knight Rider KARRs, Two A-Team Vans, and I completely FORGOT to add that there's also 2 or 3 American Graffiti cars. Can't remember which ones, I think they were Edsels or something?

Seems like I'll be putting my Vietnamese New Year money to use. :lol:

I find it funny they name it their own new year when it is essentially the same as Chinese New Year. How much do you think you'll be getting this year?


It's also not a Firevird, dude. Come on.

Also I just made a purchase on ebay that should make everyone jelly. Im just waiting for the seller to get back to me with the combined postage amount.

Woah! I like them, nice find as usual RCK. 👍

Now I'm off to do some car research.

And....... You're hooked. ;) Now you must do the Hot Wheels chant. :lol:

Just you wait until my latest e-bay purchase arrives. I found something that complements those two nicely. :P

Oh, this I have gotta see. I'm guessing Holdens maybe a R32 Skyline Group A?

@Kevin: The Somkey and The Bandit car is a true Trans-Am dude. Come on. :P
 
It's a Firevird Trans Am, dude. Come on :crazy:

D'oh! :dunce:

It's 1AM here and it's been a long day. Give me a break! :P

You'll probably have to argue with Cano for the A-Team van and KARR. Unless I'm wrong, there might be enough of KARR for both of you. If only I knew what Siku had for diecast cars... Got a list?

I find it funny they name it their own new year when it is essentially the same as Chinese New Year. How much do you think you'll be getting this year?

Well, we do have a name for it: Tet. Just call it the Lunar New Year. :P So far I've gotten $45, definitely not as much as back then, but I'm fine with it. Got some lucky money yourself?

Kid drives a Toyota Crown in America. What do you people want!

:P

I don't drive it... Still doesn't have an engine! :P

I was first. End of arguing (:


small block Chevy, dude

/cliche

True or I'll just be a nice guy and give up the one I was going to get myself to Ben. :sly: There was only two on the pegs when I was there.

I'll be sticking to a Toyota motor thanks. :P

You sit in the drivers seat and make engine noises, I assume? :dopey:

Maybe...? Although my friend does it more than me. :lol:
