1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I'm loving the SA22 FX-7 Jason. Great car and for $1, that's a steal!

And I like the rally cars Andy, shame that you couldn't get the RS200 though, it would been one car off the wanted list.


Edit: Yo Jason! Do they have any 993 GT2 Blvds at the meets yet? If they do, how much? I heard you payed $5 bucks for one. I couldn't even find one when we rented a car last weekend!

Bid's currently at $1.66:

Extra wheel in blister AND packaged the wrong way?

Don't know the validity of that. Plus the top left edge isn't convincing.

No, I said they would probably be $5 if they had them which they didn't.

Rest of yesterday's Walmart run;

Pagani Huayara and Porsche 918 Spyder;

Lotus Evora GT4 and a Skyline GT-R R34 (black recolor);

AE-86 White Recolor and the silver Falken AAR Cuda;

Two Evasive S2000's;

And my first two Zamacs, the '64 Corvette Sting Ray and the Custom '69 Chevy Pickup.

~Notes;

Finding the Zamacs was nice; only noticed one Pickup while I found 3 Sting Rays (left those for someone else.) Saw three Evasive S2000's, was going to grab the third but the packaging was severely damaged (and was almost open all the way.) Coupled with the Boulevard Wiegert Vector W8 Twin Turbo... I think I did a pretty good job. No F&F cars, but I think I made up for it.

Before I read the last 19 pages in this thread since I last signed on, here's something I saw at the flea market today. This older guy had all these tomica from he believes the late 90s. His son brought them back from Japan and they've been in a closet since. He wants 3.50 a piece. He had more that are just of the screen including several taxi and police car. Any good? One of the bus has Pokemon decals so they can't be"vintage"

 

[Cano]

For 3.50 they're not bad, considering they are made in China cars already. If you do go back and grab them, could I ask for the red Citroen van? First row, under the bulldozer.

Also dude, what happened with maah moostangs? (:

 

[AOS-]

Can I gt that white tour bus with the green text on the roof? That will be a nice addition to the Planters.


Do you also have any '66 Novas or Fast Fish castings, Pandja?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah that error above looks sketchy, and not just the top left corner.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

No, I said they would probably be $5 if they had them which they didn't.

Oh.

Well, I'll keep my eyes open for that 993 casting also. I just hope that Walmart or anyone else has that car or at your HW meets.

I mean, the 993 is one of the most extreme 911s of the 90's and early 2000 until the 996 GT3 and GT2 came. Think of it as the Yellowbird of the 993s. And one of my favorites.

I gotta find him, plus two more soon.

@Panda: Woah, dude! You just hit the lottery with the Tomicas, and for 3.50 per car. Can't beat that, seriously! 👍

But do they have any GT86s, GR WRX STis, and R33 Skylines GTRs? Or is that just the cars available listed there in the picture?

Kyosho 1/64 Porsche 911 (993) Carrera RS:

And I agree with what Porsche enthusiasts say, that the 993 is the most epic of all the 911s. The 993 has the charm that the water-cooled 911s don't have...


Which would you drive? Turbo or RS?

 

[Cano]

RS.

Also, got a little overbaord today:



$3~ each




Not a single supermarket was visited.

 

[Nessy]

Turbo (because colour).

Those Merc and MAN, race trucks are real gems. What scale Cano?

 

[RCKakashi14]

Here's more:

Good night! And Happy Father's day to all Dads out there!

 

[photonrider]

Nice pick-ups, Cano. Of course such stuff wouldn't be hanging on supermarket pegs.
Enjoy your money.

All these need to be opened:



I couldn't wait, so hurriedly opened these two; got tired of looking at them and waiting for a 'proper' moment.







These will be going on my wall - though for only a short time. The longer the stay up on display, the yellower they get. Usually they are stored away from dust, humidity and light.



The rest will go back into the storage boxes:



Alright . . . back to Father's Day. Have a good one, guys!

Trade you one of my Kyosho Xanavi Zs for the Stratos?


Oh. Harry, want to do a trade some time in the future?

 

[Driving Park]

A few Wal-Mart grabs today.

[commodoreben]

Great cars cano. I really like the green lights. I also went a little overboard yesterday while visiting the grandparents. I got a few monster jam trucks, ae-86 recolour, black falcon, star ship enterprise and a few more. Pics to come today after work hopefully.

 

[Cano]

Some of the basic-line Hot Wheels are starting to show up on supermarkets, but it'sll be a reeeal while until I see, for example, the blue Mustangs or the Toyota truck. Plus at the place I got them they're all one buck a piece, sometimes less. I'm never buying supermarket again.

Also, the Jag and the Peugeot :0

Trade you one of my Kyosho Xanavi Zs for the Stratos?

You don't want it, it's 1:43 scale.

 

[Nessy]

You don't want it, it's 1:43 scale.

So i'm guessing they're 1:76 then (racing rigs). What make?

 

[Spacegoat]

RS.

Also, got a little overbaord today:

A little?

Damn, the Peugeot and Jag. Nice. 👍

Stunning!!!!

 

[Cano]

Yeah more or less. You could almost say 1:64 but they are indeed smaller. They're made by New Ray. Got them for like $2 because the box containing the acrilyc display in which they come was damaged. The acrilyc display is now being used to protect the custom Nova gasser and Alpine, as they are quite delicate and dusting them off always brings some catastrophic consecuence.

Thats some awesome cars guys

Nice, I love the Group C era cars. So freakin awesome. 👍

[AOS-]

Are you going to be opening that 20-pack? I want that Fish'd & Chip'd.

 

[AHMEDFINK]

I really like that Samson Monster Jam...Hope I can find it soon

Nice grabs Cano, you're years ahead of the supermarket assortment

 

[CodeRedR51]

That U.S.S Enterprise is coming out again with a re-color which is actually some additional decals with "battle damage".

 

[AOS-]

Okay guys. Got some more available for anyone who wants any. Am willing to cut your shipping costs by 15% if you want a handful (i.e. 5 and more):

I was moving in the recent Kyoshos and am taking out some Hot Wheels :

Would love it if you took stuff from columns 1, 2, 5 and 6.
PM me.

 

[commodoreben]

Sorry AOS, this ones staying it the pack. If I get another it will be opened and the Fish'd & Chip'd is yours for the cost of postage.

 

[AOS-]

While I appreciate your offer, I just worked out it's probably worth my money to buy a 10-pack locally for $18. I saw one today with the very same Fish'd & Chip'd and 4 others cars I'd like to have. Normally I'd reject any 10-packs if it has less than 6 I want, but I may just make the exception because of this one car being an exclusive. I didn't buy it just yet because I wanted to check if one of my favourite eBay sellers has it.
