1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[Gotbeefboy564]

I'll have to count my hotwheels and matchbox I don't even know how many I have. Probably over 300.

Bought these 2 Kyoshos the other day. They belong in the BMW & MINI Minicar Collection:

BMW M1 Group 5:

Mini Cooper Clubman:

I like the Countachs, beefboy. 👍 The Kyosho Mini....... I love the Minis, but there are so many of those things in my area, I almost get a gagging reflex looking at the model. Sweet M1 though.

Hater.

This is as dramatic as it gets in this thread. Some other threads here on gtplanet, I couldn't say that about. All in all, you guys are quality characters. We also have to keep in mind, Cano, even when he means to compliment someone, somehow, "screw you" beats out any congratulatory words he meant to speak.

Love you Cano.

Digging the M1 in black, looks very menacing. 👍

Here are some pics of my collection of 1/18,1/24, and 1/64 scale cars

Cool because amongst all the new car stuff there are some pretty old Lesney Matchbox cars and trucks, specially trucks! Get all of your Lesney Matchbox cars together and take some pics of them to see in how good of a shape you've got them! From these lousy pics they seem to be pretty well preserved :0

Hater.

What makes you think I hate that pile of 🤬?

This is like console war fanboyism man. Do you want me to apologize for liking it? Take a chill pill Cano.

I don't want to you to do anything. I'll still lol at it, thou (:

BMW M1 Group 5:

oooo I have my eyes set on that one in the future, once the next Kyosho package arrives I'll for sure be looking for that one, but I'd like the one with livery. Considerably more expensive ):

Yeah screw you too

I think the Cube and Bb are pretty cool and funky, they have the aero of a brick, but still..

Are both of those Kyosho 1/64 scale, Kakashi? if so, it's shocking how big Mini's have grown.

Yep, both are Kyosho 1/64s. Minis did have a growth spurt. While driving the other day, I saw a Cooper S JCW cruising alongside the classic Mini Cooper, and I can tell that the new one can crush the old one into pieces.

 

[Nessy]

Yep, definitely a sense of irony to the name "MINI", where the modern one is concerned.

Gorgeous looking M1, BTW. 👍

I came close to buying the racing livery M1 when I was shopping on DaBox that one time. The fact I bought so many other Kyoshos before stopped me

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

The old matchboxs were actually from my grandmas house. I took them last year, they were my uncles when he was a kid I'll post the pics later tonight of the old ones.

 

[Cano]

Ah, even better, cars with history!!! PICS!!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Going to walmart after work. Any guesses as to what I'll find?

(probably nothing...)

 

[Cano]

You'll most likely find the same cars you've been seeing for the last couple weeks. I hit a Wal Mart last night and scored 4 Fire Eater THs.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I just want an FRS. Or two. Or three...

 

[MedigoFlame]

I'd love to have the FR-S as well... Considering that it popped up on HWC sneak peeks, how soon would it be in the stores?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Next couple weeks I assume. Usually those sneaks are a week or two late.

 

[a6m5]

I still gotta ask: Yellow Celicas. What is up with them, and how come I still can't find any?

Douzo, a6-san.

You. Are. Sick!

I share the sentiment, completely. But way I look at it, you won't lose your legs in a fender-bender in these Mini.

Give it a couple weeks or so.

 

[a6m5]

Give it a couple weeks or so.

Good answer. I was just hoping it wasn't some weird store exclusives, or anything like that. Thanks. 👍

P.S. I received some cars today & Matchbox Celica/Supra is missing the rear glass window. It seems they decided to make it a working rear hatch, and omitted rear glass for cost purposes. For couple of seconds there, I thought I got a defective one.

 

[RCKakashi14]

You. Are. Sick!

Shikashi, atarashii Mini mo kawaii da na...


I might get the Kyosho Mini Countryman too, in red. Looks really great.

Here's hoping that they make a JCW Cooper S. I do have three of them, but they are RMZ.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Here are the pics of my old matchbox cars.























The pics are from my ipod so they're not the best quality.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Walmart produced.....nothing. Might be that way for a while, packed with old stuff.

I got FRSs here. Already have an extra saved for a custom.

 

[a6m5]

FR-S looks much better than I expected. 👍

Pics of what I received today:



Tomica S800 looks better than I expected. Supra/Celica XX, about what I expected. Silvia/180SX....... It's not really modeled very well. Highlight's the actual plastic taillight lenses, but it doesn't really do original car justice.



Matchbox Supra/Celica XX & 935, they surprised me. Very cool.

Here are the pics of my old matchbox cars.

God, they are old(that's good). I like the old open wheel race cars, and I spy the same Rover that's been posted in here before. That is a cool car. 👍

Shikashi, atarashii Mini mo kawaii da na...

I do like the remakes, but when you talking about the cuteness, it's all about the originals!

God, I hope I have different luck this weekend. Wish me luck!

Ah screw you.

I'm sure someone will have them at the meet tomorrow.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

The yellow open wheeled race car is the Lola Climax F1 says N.0/2 on the bottom too. Says it was made in Italy also.

Here are the pics of my old matchbox cars.

Dude! there are some very very good cars right there! The first cabover truck is insane. If you ever want to get rid of them let me know, I'll give them a good home and will give you a good coin for them (:

Pics of what I received today:

Cool stuff, but I really like the 180 SX and demand close-up pics of the thing!

 

[Spacegoat]

Pics of what I received today:

Again, I hate you so much. Seriously though, the Supra looks killer. And those Matchbox's are sweet, never seen that Supra before. I've actually got that 935, though mine isn't in as nice of condition as yours is.

 

[AOS-]

Cool stuff, Shinji. Really cool stuff. I'd love to find more cardboard boxed matchboxes like those.

I only bought this one because it was all gold. If you're gonna do bling, do it biiiiig. This also concludes the blings/tooned collection. I reserved a section for these on the wall display and this one fills up the last spot.

Weird-looking thing. Was compelled to buy it for the Castrol livery, don't know a thing about John Force or any funny cars and the thing was only $1 on TTP.
