From time to time, this thread irritates me to no end. This is one of those times. 🤬 you all with your Toyotas that do arrive in the mail and your 20/$30 deals, I don't even wanna look... but I'm pretty masochistic when it comes to this stuff -_-

Some of us pay, some of us don't...;-)

However, I did pay for this, and it arrived this week:

Trying to rebuild the AE86 variation collection piece by piece...
 
I don't even want to know how much you paid for that. :crazy:

What all variations of it do you have so far?

No you don't. It popped up BIN for $20.

Here are the other two HTF varis I have:

A grey with red 5sp expired yesterday, but I was stuck at the Apple store buying a computer and totally forgot to bid. Bummed to see it ended at $32...

Stopped at TRU on way home from Flea Market. Left a 60th Anniversary Austin Mini Cooper, but grabbed these two.

And now for a Diabolic Sneak Peek

This was one of my 20/$30 cars

$45-50 on eBay for the last three sales this year. :lol:

I guess that must be a Greenlight R34, eh? The car itself doesn't do much for me, but that is a steal! 👍

Thank you, At1, and Kakashi, I love the Amamiya RX-7. 👍 And Phil:
I know I will be broke as a old tree when I come back!
:lol:👍
 
It's a Johnny Lightning from the Hollywood on Wheels line.

I believe it's the car Paul Walker drove in the mini movie creating the link from The Fast and the Furious to 2Fast 2Furious.

It's been so long. :lol: I've seen the GL Fast & Furious cars, so I thought they all were. Thanks for the info. 👍
 
You got a deathwish? One doesn't simply ask DW questions like that.

Deathwish? How about a meteorite for you? I live far enough I'll probably survive. :P


In any case, the next batch of Hot Wheels came into Walmart and I raided it for all the popular mainlines. Photos wont matter to you guys but I picked up 2 M3s, a Carrera GT, Berlinetta (That Ferrari), Gallardo SL, Golf, and Gran Torino. Nope, no errors, 2002 Variations or Super Hunt Golfs either. :P

Treasure Hunts
IMG_1091_zps361666cf.jpg


The Treasure hunts were not actually part of the 20/$30, but I bargained with the guy.
In exchange for 5 cars he valued at $2/piece, I took these two which he valued at $4/piece.

$3 singles

TH Skyline

Stopped at a store I buy games at and even they had a rack of hotwheels.
Picked up this Skyline which I only had in Blue previously.

M2's all round:lol:
Yeah saw the Treasure Hunt in there and picked it up straight away, the Falken Cuda & another Evasive S2000 tipped me over the edge:D

How the hell are you finding these cars in 10 packs? My big w takes forever to restock and when it does its mostly the same boring stuff they always put out. I got a Siku SLR for you today Medigo, no luck on the Gumpert yet but I did get a Audi R8 incase I cant find a Gumpert and you still want the R8.
 
Dude, first a 10 pack with a Black XB and now a 10 pack with a TH? Lucky. The Big W near me never has anything good. :grumpy:

I honestly can't explain it, everytime I do a store run at least one if not two have something new out:confused: I'm not in a very big town either only around 25,000 people, same with the two towns around me, I'm thinking Spacegoats right, lucky and not many collectors round me:)

Great cars mate, huge score, I'm especially jelly of the Ford Falcon Taxi & is that a Holden Commodore Police Car:drool:

Back on track, went to Toyworld today (hadn't been for a month or so) they'd put some new/old stock out so I grabbed these:

Also didn't realise they sold SIKU's there, had to grab a Wiesmann GT & Gumpert Apollo, really like the way it says power output & top speed on the underneath of the car:D

This thread continues to annoy me. It's worse because I haven't got anything really relevant lately, just supermarket trash, and most of you guys are on fire.
