Regarding the Silvia, I remember when the casting was announced as a new edition some years ago, I was plenty excited, but when I saw it it was such a big let down. It's SOOO badly done. I would have loved a good casting of that car.
 
Here are the pictures I promised hopefully this works as its my first time uploading photos

A group shot of the Lensey's

And let me just say, those two cars are hawt!
 
Pop-up headlamps! Neat! Is it still France-made? It may not be mint, but I had never seen that car. Good find.

And very cool, that Husky E-Type in the previous post. Those are HARD to find.

Yup. I`ve had that like forever.

The only Majorettes I'll purchase are french made....so Yes! :)

I always thought Husky looked too much like cigar cars, but this Jag is nice

It is. Pure tactile pleasure, too.

I have that exact same Jaguar! My sister painted it with glow-in-the-dark paint too when we were little :lol:

LOL! Was that an intentional mod?

I dig the scratches, now it's perfect for a new livery paintjob:

you Dig?

Yeeeeahh! The Reventon gets heavy use. Its actually an R/C car. and shouldn`t even be in here. My bad. Anyway - its going to be heavily modded soon. I may just take your advice, though . . .;)


I`ve managed to browse 25 pages already - wow! What great collections in here! Still a long way to go before I catch up with you guys.

I`m expecting a huge haul for Father`s day. Most everybody I know in real life knows Im nuts about wheels.

Thought I`d make a few more pics for you:

A CORGI!

The Maisto`s have screws. Easy to mod! Can even change the tires (tyres):

Bye for now. Will be back soon with more pix!
Thanks for sharing!

sorry not the best picture. This is everything I've gotten in the last month or so. Glad to have finally found the s2000 and megane. Though the megane wings seem to not be fitted properly. They fall off easy.

Special thanks to Cano as well :)
 
Yeah I have one out of the packet as well. The spoiler just clips on and off.
speaking of spoilers, I just got a megane trophy and the spoiler was coming off when it was still in the package. I finally have a mistake hot wheel

Glad to see they arrived dude! I know, long overdue, but at least they got there fast enough. Open one!

EDIT: lol, you can see bits of polyestirene still in the cars. cool!

Nice!

Must haves for myself and others in this thread. I actually bought four Brasilia's!

That's cool, didn't know that. I might have to open mine to check it out. :D

Nice cars btw.

I too have one new addition to my collection. I found it at Walmart today. My first ever Super Treasure Hunt! I know Cano loves it. :P

Hhaha, you find a $TH and it is the ugliest of the year. Don't worry, been there, done that. You can always trade it for something cooler like, you know, the 240Z in BRE colors that will come later in the year.

Curse you! I only have the regular TH.
Cano loves it just as much nonetheless.

I think I will do exactly that.

:P I almost left it there. I was about to leave after I checked the long cards and found nothing new or good, but I decided I might as well check the short cards, then I saw a green stripe towards the back of the pegs. Thought it was another regular, but then I looked at the wheels and did my happy dance. :lol:
 
Got on the early bus for work, had extra time so I stopped by the Walmart next to work and brought home these 4 guys.

mmhh.. I may have to grab that NSX entirely for customizing pourposes, as each and every version they have released of it is really ugly.
 
I'd like a regular NSX tbh, but I've never seen an NSX before so I grabbed it...

The base coat mattel does on these guys are so awful these days... there's always paint chipped and lots of missed spots.
 
went to target and picked up these...

also the megane trophy's spoiler is out of place. My first ever messed up hot wheel

This time I agree with you Cano. The first one I saw looked terrible. It was red and yellow with a fire graphic on it. It also had a chrome interior. No reason to, since there were no chrome parts on the outside of the body like bumpers or anything. It was chrome for the heck of it.
Fire does not look good on every car. Someone tell that to Mattel.
 
The lime green/black Speed Machines NSX I have looks actually pretty good IMO, as opposed to all the others (although I did like the gray/red one enough to grab it as well).
 
It'll sell if kids keep buying it. Keep it simple, Mattel!

I'd buy 'em all if you left it bone-stock, paint color AND wheels.. especially if you guys didn't leave out spots when painting.
