Cool stuff, but I really like the 180 SX and demand close-up pics of the thing!
I was sparing you guys, don't say I didn't warn you.....



It's not bad for Tomica Limited. It is 🤬 pitiful compared to the Tomica Limited Vintage quality though.

Again, I hate you so much. :grumpy: 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. :lol:
I balked on the 935 before, but when same seller also had Supra, I felt it was the time to pull the trigger. I think they are both brand new, or at least they look it!
Cool stuff, Shinji. Really cool stuff. I'd love to find more cardboard boxed matchboxes like those.
I'm very picky on those, but I like them, too. I also have their RX-7 race car, Ferrari F1, and I adore them. Nice change of pace.

I only bought this one because it was all gold.
I LOVE it. đź‘Ť It's shiny! :dopey:
 
I've managed to misplace all the carded stuff I bought in May. I know the Super Street premiums were in the box as well as 20+ other cars, but I can't recall what I did with them. :(

I guess it's on to June stuff.

Boring extras I picked up. (I can not remember exactly the stuff I have/need loose, so when I can find deals on lots, I scoop them up just in case. Out of this first post, I just needed the Quad.












 
Those Tomicas are awesome a6, I so want an S800 now:drool: and some fantastic cars guys, nice:tup:

Looking at wyvern's I saw the Skip-Bo car and remembered playing that game when I was a young bloke (sort of like UNO I think) can't really remember that far back, getting too old:lol:

Grabbed a few cars yesterday, not much new stuff around though:( did find green Routemaster so it wasn't all bad:)


Also an eBay delivery, picked this lot up for a $9.99 opening bid:
 
So have I told you guys I (sorta) collect '56 Mercs? I'm probably going to stop:

Have I also told you I also (sorta) collect Diablos?

What about '86 Land Cruisers?

Here's a Designer Challenge you guys likely haven't seen before.

Honda+Racer+(black:designer+challenge).jpg


for 50 cents too?!
 
I'll post single shots of my rare cars and my Ferraris, Lambos, and Porsches today.

I'd rather you post single shots of the matchbox lesney cars to see their shape.

EDIT: Also, that 180SX is pretty nice. I can't see why you don't like it, A6. Drop it in mah box if you don't want it (:

What a steal. I'm not usually a fan of that series, but everything in that lot look so good. đź‘Ť

I have the bottom one from the Garage series. I like that one a lot.

Tomica Dream Series: Initial D AE86 Trueno
Thanks for the tip. You are like our 1/64 JDM Insider. đź‘Ť

No, it is the only Silvia I have afterall, of any line. She's a keeper, it's just below par for Tomica Limited, at least to me.
 
I bought another RMZ Mini Cooper S Countryman ALL4:

In my opinion, the Countryman looks good. I have seen plenty of those on the road, and they stand out. While its concept is contradicting (a giant MINI? :lol: ), it is still as compact. It's not that big compared to a RAV4 or a CR-V.

Wow, really? :crazy: As a6 said that's an absolute steal for the price. Congrats. đź‘Ť

Thanks guys:tup:

Nice cars to RCK, R1600 & AOS, I really like the black? Landcruiser haven't seen that one before:tup: and those new Tomicas, Initial D AE86 & that Audi R8:drool:

Grabbed a new HW City World Race 5 pack and a 20 pack today but was dark when I got home so pics will be tomorrow:D

World Race 5 pack:

and here's what I grabbed out of the 20 pack, gave 4 cars to the kids because I'm not into the animal cars:lol:

Omg! I can't seem to find the 70's Charger from F&F anywhere! All I need to complete the set is the 70's Charger and the Mustang (God knows if I ever get close to that one). I have looked in every Walmart whenever I get the chance to and I have never found one.

Whoa, a Silver Falcon race car? I had no idea about that. :eek: Another one added to the Do want list. :lol:

Yeah, Tomica did alright there, and door gap isn't so bad to naked eye. My Canon lets me pretty much shove the lens right up to the car, so it sometimes picks up details I didn't see when I was looking at the car. Like dust. :crazy:

I like Tomica Limited, but they are absolutely outclassed by the TL Vintage line though.

Tomica Limited:





Tomica Limited Vintage:



I need more Tomica Limited Vintage cars in my collection.
 
The Charger I got from a Target along with the Batmobile.
Did you see this pic I posted few weeks ago?



Walmart exclusive F&F cars has more detail compared to the mainline F&F cars available in all stores. Looks like on this car, Walmart one has hood pins, painted grille & different set of wheels. Unfortunately, they were very hard to find cars. I saw Walmart F&F cars just once, they were crap cars nobody wanted(I passed, too).

Difference is even more obvious on the Supra. I think they actually added head & taillights on the Walmart one.
Great cars and trucks, a6m5. But the 1/18 scale thread, is elsewhere. đź‘Ť :D
They are priced like 1:24 or 1:43 scale though. :P For me lately, what draws me in has been how much detail they can pack into the little 1:64 scale. It's pretty neat.
