1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[CodeRedR51]

Going to big lots shortly as they are getting cases of flying customs that contain hair splitters and the baja bugs. Anyone need any?

 

[AOS-]

Bought mine 2 months ago

 

[CodeRedR51]

They were hard to find in the states.

Edit: there's tons of them. Didn't buy any as I dont want to be stuck with them. Anyone want any, speak up. $2.50 each.

I'll pass too. They were impossible to find at one point, then came the dump in select stores nearby. Weird how these things work. Same thing with the Retro Entertainment Mystery Mobile(or whatever it's called) & Knight Rider. All gone, then tons of them. They may be gone now, but I got mine.

Great stuff mate, especially the Baja Cruiser
Good luck with the auctions too:tup:

Thanks man. 👍

I've been spending way too much on 1/18 stuff this week, so only thing for me was another blue Bump Around

1/18 Too big & pricey for me. So glad these "mini" cars keeps me busy.

They actually are making such models of classic cars and those applied for specific classification for actual motorsport since quite a long while ago - which are mostly quite expensive and accessible via online shopping unfortunately.

Yeah, I've seen them. I'll try to get some pics of mine.

Which year release is that RR Baja?

Says "2007" on the package. Serial #'d out of 10,000, which may be why it was only $15($5 of it being shipping).

New kids on the block.

Huh?

"Who doesn't love old Chevys?"

The answer is kids. Kids and ricers.

Rhetorical question!

Edit: Swung by Fred Meyer today, they had the Monster series cars. I was like, "cool, I can get another Wolfman Bus, so I can break one open!". No way, Jose. No Wolfman.

On my way out, I saw these on the clearance rack, so I got them. I think they were something like $1.86 a piece.



Just wanted those wheels for my upcoming wheel-swapping projects(ETA 2015 or later).

 

[Spacegoat]

I love it.

I can see why. Those buses are great, but the baja bruiser is just too cool. 👍

 

[a6m5]

I'm thinking I'm gonna have to open it. It is just ..........yeah. You should get one next time Jarrod. Going rate can be as low as $10 + shipping.

Andy or Harry: This seller is from Canada. I've bought from him before. $9.95 for Baja Bruiser, and maybe shipping would be cheaper for you guys?

Shintaro what year are those? You might want to keep the top one, that might be a Dan Wheldon car. The other is Tony Kanaan.

They are marked 2011, but I don't believe they are worth anything. Those wheels though.......

I know nothing about racing, but I do know from Hot Wheel car dedicated to him that he was killed in a race, and Kanaan's car is my second favorite open-wheel car I have(one with '7-Eleven' on it).

Edit: Found the pic of my "7-Eleven" car(bottom-right corner).



P.S. I forgot to add that I got to check out Auto World line for the first time today. Price was spectacularly high, but they didn't look any better than Greenlight, and not at all excited by the cars they had. I also saw the new "Cool" or whatever series by Hot Wheels? All they had left was trikes, so only confirmation I got on them was that they really do exist.

 

[Cano]

I really like how you don't collect anymore, A6. What with the Liberty Promotions buses and all that. Your not collecting is the best not collecting I've ever seen.

 

[a6m5]

*ahem* So, how quickly did those HWC Blown Deliveries go? I completely forgot to ask, but I'm guessing that they sold out in six hours...... nine hours, tops.

 

[Spacegoat]

You should get one next time Jarrod.

If I see one going cheap enough, you bet. 👍

When did he start?

 

[DwightSchrute12]

Went to Target today. This was at the front of the pegs:

Then to Wal-Mart, with a fresh P case dump bin. And I walked up to the shelf to see these at the front (I swear I didn't touch them).

I grabbed two of those, a young collector came up after me and got the third. He seemed pretty stoked.

The rest of my P case haul:

Two minutes. No joke. The salty meltdowns on the forums were hilarious. (And I got my order in )

 

[a6m5]

Honestly, I don't know which fact is more amazing: Fact that Blown Delivery sold out in 2 minutes, or that you got that + Treasure Hunts are just sitting up front on the pegs, just for you. Jesus.

See, that Blown Deliveries thing proves my point about me not wanting to join. They hold the opening, when most people are working. I should just shell out the bucks & get one on eBay. Hunt for this car has taken long enough!

The RX-7s at the front of the pegs are way more amazing to me. I was thinking I might have already missed the boat on them, so to find them so spectacularly was awesome.

The one I found the other day on a whim while at Walmart for an oil drain pan was in a big dump bin that was over flowing with cars, but nothing good. I even left the bin and looked around some more. Came back to the bin a second time and while sifting through the cars in the back, I grabbed a handful of cars and pulled them out. The RX-7 was one of them.

Three of them? Lucky......... And the Fiesta as well, great haul. 👍

Dude, you must have the TH Touch! You and Zach always find one or a few TH or $TH in a snap....

How do you guys do this? Mind-Blown!

Do they nave more TH RX-7s? Can you pick one up if you run into one again? I must have him for my SA22 RX7 series.


@Cano: I know right? A6's no collecting is amazing! Just like Zach's and Dwight's TH Touch!

Triple Mind-Blown...........

No, and that store is too far on my bike.

 

[a6m5]

@ Phil. Good news is, prices on RX-7s are starting to stabilize. I think the circulation is up. I'd recommend getting to the Toy Peddler for car like this. 👍

Edit: Here is Fiesta TH, RX-7 & USS Enterprise for $15 shipped. That Fiesta's cool. Damn it Dwight.

Edit2: Phil, I just bought what will be my third RX-7. This lot had the Fiesta & Challenger TH I wanted, so for the price, I got it. As you may know, I have bunch of listings on eBay? Half of those auctions end tonight, rest on tomorrow night, and most of them are still at the starting bid of .99 cents! Let me know if you may be interested in working out a deal. While I can't sell the TH for $1, I'll work with you on the pricing.

Same goes for anybody wanting Enterprise. If it's the "damaged" one, I'll keep one, but I have no interest in them.

Idk lol. My luck is very one-sided. I've found almost every regular TH this year that I wanted, but the only Super TH I have ever found was 1000+ miles away from where I live

Edit: Here is Fiesta TH, RX-7 & USS Enterprise for $15 shipped. That Fiesta's cool. Damn it Dwight.

The Challenger was my favorite TH this year up to this point, but the Fiesta passed it. I was really glad to find that one.

 

[a6m5]

I got you beat, bro....... *takes off to Google Map* My Falcon XB Super Treasure Hunt was only 26.5 miles out.

Edit: I DODGED a bullet. As a loss-leader, I threw in my M2 Olds 442 on my eBay auctions, like all the other cars, at .99 cents? There were no bids, so I was totally sweating losing it for .99 cents to a last minute bidder? It just expired with no sale.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

No, and that store is too far on my bike.

Oh, well it's alright. I see A6 got me a deal going on or I can wait until I run into one or bug you later when the meets go down.

Hmmm, I'll think about it. But since I got two trades now and I am saving for two games, just pre ordered one. So I'll have to pass it up now.

But thanks for the deal though. 👍

But still, you got the TH Touch bro! Next it could be turning a TH into gold, then it's time for eBay.

I haven't got a TH in my collection nor seen one that I like to buy . But hey, there's other good cars HW brings out that I must find for my collection though.

But just keep it up, there's gonna be more sweet THs down the road, especially 2014.

But for me, I'm going for them DB5s, 2000GTs and Datsun 620 ASAP! Old School JDM and Euro and hopefully more F1s, 911 GT2 993s, Genesis Coupes, LP-670 SVs and newcomers like the Mac P1, BRZ, R33 GTR, R31 GTS-R, Evo 1-6 and 8-9 GSR, WRX STi GC8s, Delta Intergale Evo II and a CCXR or Agera. *crosses fingers*

Friendly reminder of these Kyosho models soon-to-be arriving.

I like Z4s, I like the colours, I like the details, but I don't like that I like it so much.


BTW Jason. Do you remember if that green Tesla you sold me was from the 2010 Earth Day series or Easter Eggclusives?

Earth day.

Also, last package came. Will box everything up tonight.

Ditto on anyone else that has stuff with me. (except for Cano, which BTW, needs to get me money from his friend-o for the Indy cars )

EDIT: Done. You'll have the money by tonight, dude 👍

Yo Jason, have you received the money yet? Should be there now, since I sent it out close to the weekend. Can't wait to get those FR-S and that 993 GT2 soon, even though GTA V will take my time up, unless you sent them out already.
