Matchbox is doing an A100 pickup this year. From what I know it will be a stock version.

Please mr ambassador, whenever photos leak, post them here!
 
Well you know what that means... we need Zakyta to open and take a picture of that van. :P
Normally I would but i've got no room on my shelves, to many cars up there:lol:
Aside from the fact that that thing is way bigger than a normal HW and belongs clearly to other series? :crazy:
Yeah a bit bigger mate, looks like G Machine size:tup:
My thoughts are:

- If the flame logo is integrated into the design of the tampo = not a TH
My mates always doing that, when we do a store run, he picks up a car with a similar logo blended in and thinks he's found a TH, I just look and shake my head:lol:

Here's a pic with the card:)

I LOVE the color, but the obvious scale of those wheels scared me away from buying it.

I got these Johnny Lightnings the other night at Walmart. Didn't like the $10+ total though. :ouch:


1995 Chevy Caprice


1965 International Scout 1200


1981 Jeep Wagoneer
 
Stopped by Walmart on the way home. No dump bin yet, but they did reorganize their diecast section and I saw a few Batman Retro's hanging, so that's a good sign. Bought one of the Matchbox 60th Anniversary Mitsubishi EVO X police cars. Supposed to rain tomorrow, so I'll check back on Friday morning.

Those JL's look awesome! They really need to do imports again...

And, DW, that Mercedes C-Class is not new. It's the 1998 Race Team Series C-Class. Got the same one at my local flea market.

And an update for Cano and Ben, I plan on going out shopping Saturday morning. So I'll keep you guys posted if I find the Edsels.
 
No worries mate, I'll grab both those for you when I go on Thursday:tup:
I've got paypal buddy, but if its ok next time you go to the market just grab me something there, all the stuff you grab looks awesome and we've got nothing like that round my area:(

Will do. Wont be going back there for a couple of weeks though. Was there anything inparticular that you were after? I did see some of the 32 Fords from American Graffiti there but they were $10 each. The guy I normally buy from sells regular treasure hunts for about $5 each and Medigo if you see the JL Caprice can you get me one aswell?

Thanks, that'd be awesome:tup: nothing inparticular mate, surprise me:D

I'll be going for a store run in the morning to grab the SIKU's for you, if there's any Matchbox or Hot Wheels mainline stuff your looking for let me know and I'll see what I can find:tup:
 
Dude, remember: JLs.

Alright, alright, I'll look for some for you. I did see some nice ones at TRU as well. Things like a Shelby Daytona coupe and some other muscle car. Completely different packaging than the ones I find in Walmart. But I'll look for them in Walmart as well. Any specifics?

How many different C-Classes have you seen at said Flea market?

Only found two at my local flea market. Just the Race Teams and First Editions C-Class. Had the first edition as a kid, glad I was able to find one there. :D

Medigo if you see the JL Caprice can you get me one aswell?

I'll be sure to look for one for you. ;)

Liking the flea market grabs...well...more like JELLY!! Veyron, R34s, and that R32.

Has anyone seen the post on Lamley of this Evora? :drool:

Woah, I like it. Especially they made the racing version of the Evora in the ALMS series. 👍

But those big wheels on the rear. A no go, but I'll get a couple and fit proper wheels on it.

Real nice JL's, Zach. 👍

My latest e-Bay purchase just arrived.

Well im sure ya'll are still wondering what that one thing was i scored on ebay a while back....

Vspec, have your ambulance ready.:lol:

Oh boy. I know I will need one, especially after Jarrod and his Falcons.....:crazy::lol:


Went for a stroll for a couple of hours and I decided to visit the store to see what they had. Same stuff, so I'll go back later and get them. I got another R34, Camaro and a STi GRB.

That's all and a 1:24 SRT-8 Challenger from Maisto. And since I rode and driven a actual Challenger RT, true story. :D

EDIT 2000th post!!!!! :D

Yes, muscle cars basically, but you saw the trucks McZc posted in the previous page? THOSE.

Hey Cano, do you have a Datsun 200SX HW?

Yes, I only have the gold version. I'm missing the rare white one and the Mexico release in burgundy, I've never been able to find it in decent shape, or at a price I can pay :lol:

If I recall correctly, Wyvern had the white one.
 
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.

Absolutely. Use your influence to get this thread shut down, Cano. Enough is enough. :grumpy:
 
Word is starting to leak of a Hot Wheels Fast & Furious set with a heavy Japanese vibe. It will feature cars from previous movies, and little birdies talk of GT-R's, Supras, and R34's.

I don't post pics that came from questionable origins, but there is a place that does. If I am hearing about it, I am almost positive they are too...
 
Sounds pretty cool, did Mattel ever have the F&F license before? Hoping they have the more tasteful stuff from Fast Five or something. And I really hope the Supra will be correctly scaled...

Yes, muscle cars basically, but you saw the trucks McZc posted in the previous page? THOSE.

I saw them, I'll look for them as well for you and Ben. ;)
