White? How about the red!?

Don't worry about it.

The 8C was pulled out at the last minute due to licensing issues. It was intended to debut in the first batch of Speed Machines line.

Oh. Thanks for the info RCK. It's a shame that they pulled it out just before the Speed Machines came out. At least I can get it now and have a Alfa in my miniature garage plus more to my Cars of Italy collection.

Now HW or MB need to make a Lancia Delta Intergale HF Evo.

Matchbox is doing the Alfa 4C as well. By the way, my pics of the Matchbox 1M:

And my final Ambassador Report, with pics of a 3D print of the new Matchbox Tacoma:

Something about that 1M makes it look cartoony.

Woo! New Mad Propz! (why did they drop the 2nd d?)

I'm gonna post on HWC and ask.

Also, Mattel is cracking down on illegal sales of stolen cars:

As many of you are aware, there have been online auctions featuring unauthorized or unreleased product believed to have been improperly removed from our overseas factories. This has not gone unnoticed by Mattel’s Global Security team and Law Department. Efforts have been ongoing to address possible thefts and related activity and to prevent these from continuing in Asia and elsewhere. Going forward, online sales and purchases or other dealing of unreleased product are subject to investigation for illegal activity -- no matter the location.

Please help us continue our efforts to address this issue. If you see any online auctions of products which are not yet released by Mattel, please bring it to our attention by sending us an e-mail at: global.investigations@mattel.com.

Thank you.

My $uper 2000GT is legit yo.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I wouldn't know, I don't own one.

 

[zakyta_4]

Nice. One of my favourite race cars of all time 👍, still upset I didn't get a 1.18 when they were first released. And that Veyron, wow.

Holy crud. Serial #'d even. Pure. Class. 👍

That is very cool. Nice grab!

Thanks guys:tup: Yeah I was pretty happy to get it, nice price too $20

@Space: Same mate, easily in my top 5:tup: need to grab myself a stock 1/64 Walkinshaw now to match it

My $uper 2000GT is legit yo.

I've had mine a bit too long to be legit, same with my loose '62 Corvette & Bone Shaker, had them a while too

 

[a6m5]

I'm certain mine's authentic stolen model. $20 sounds like a great deal on that Bugatti, zak. 👍

Something about that 1M makes it look cartoony.

That one's a pass for me, but they had some real cool cars in there like the Tacoma, what looked like a Land Rover Defender, some special edition Route Master, etc., etc., etc. Too bad that Route Master & Fire Chief Buick car will probably go for big money. Still, a lot of awesome in that line up I thought.

What I got today:




It may not be as nice as the RLC version, but it's pretty sweet for the price! $6.95 shipped

 

[AOS-]

Ahhhhhhhh I need to get that one!

I recently purchased an Auto Milestone, that RLC, the 30th anniversary and will be bidding on the Special Commemorative soon.

 

[a6m5]

Here's a cheaper one(a day left). I got a minimum bid on it, but if you want it, I won't stand in your way.

 

[AOS-]

I'm awaiting a response from the seller because they didn't specify anything for international, like so many US sellers do.

If he can't do international, I'll buy one off you for $4.

 

[a6m5]

Kid, you are on your own.

 

[AOS-]

Man why you gotta disappoint me like that?


Anywho, check out this whack listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251309391159&ssPageName=ADME:B:BOC:US:1123

$139 for 12 cars. I made the seller do it.

I had him hold on to my stuff for too long and eBay started acting up. I set up the whole plan to list everything I won in a lot, did all the math since he doesn't calculate shipping by weight, and told him to list it for a stupidly high price no one would buy, allow best offers and take up the total amount I'd actually owe him.

 

[a6m5]

Disappointments, I'm full of 'em!

Nice purchases, by the way. Sweet lot. 👍

 

[AOS-]

How much is shipping for you? This seller's dished out a Mai-level response:

"$1 MORE" said the buttface.

Guess what the question was.

 

[RACECAR]

Hello everyone. Been a while, didn't post as I felt I had nothing to contribute. Now I do so here's some pics of cars I got from March to the last two weeks:

How much is shipping for you?

[Spacegoat]

My vacation has been full of vintage Siku, Majorette, MB and Darda, so not much better really.

 

[a6m5]

Tomica Land Cruiser

I've seen Tomica Land Cruiser, but it looked different. Also, those wheels, I've never seen before.

Are they Greenlight? I got cars by "Shelby Collection" or something like that, I could swear they are Greenlight.

a6-san, there are lots and lots of Land Cruiser variants that Tomica made. Most are Japan-exclusives. I know a friend who owns a store that sells hard-to-find Tomicas and he has some Land Cruisers for sale. Though prices are sky-high...

Dude, awesome stuff. That Tomica Tomica Land Cruiser. 👍
