1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[MedigoFlame]

Quite like that Fiat 500. Kinda wish it was the Abarth though.

There was also these in the same T-hunted post. Can't say I like the color combos that much.

On the other hand...some good news. Was able to get parents on their good side... So things are slightly looking up.

That's great to hear. So the trade is still on?

So much selfish!

Spider-man Viper.... VENOM Spider.

 

[Spacegoat]

Like that colour combo on the Viper, not sure about the red wheels though.

Good to hear. 👍

It is, I'll message you when I'll be sending out the package or if anything else is needed.

Also found a 1/64-ish scale F&F Mitsubishi Eclipse from the first film for $4... Couldn't tell what company it was. Any ideas?

Edit: Nvm, found it.

Are you selling that? I want.

Didn't buy it but just saw it at the local flea market. Is $4 reasonable?

See for yourself: eBay

I think this one's a no-brainer purchase.

Edit: I recently bought the black Civic from the same movie, same Revell line. After shipping, I think I paid about $9.

 

[AOS-]

I don't think we're familiar with Revell, but see for yourself.


edit: DAMN IT SHINJI!

 

[a6m5]

You got the Canadian lag, eh?

Edit:

M2 Machines 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS


Great job installing the actual taillight lens on these things. 👍

 

[AOS-]

Argh! I forgot to bid on the 156! Some bum won it for only $5. I could've easily swiped that.

Tomica Lexus IS350 F Sport

 

[Cano]

Horrible.

 

[Apok]

I was about to comment on how bad the front looks, but then I remembered that that's how bad the real car looks like.

 

[RCKakashi14]

My neighbor owns one of those, and he drives it around almost all week. It's painted in white. But I think it would look menacing in dark colors. I don't think bright colors would work....

 

[a6m5]

That design did shock me at first, but it grew on me really fast. They are my favorite small luxury sedan by far now. Having said that, I don't know if it'll translate well to diecast as small as 1/64. Looks very tricky.

Currently on sale in Daboxtoys:

Kyosho 1:64 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Special Edition 3-car set. Price? 49.99 USD

 

[a6m5]

Just one again, but another one I really like:

HWC/RLC '55 Chevy Panel


Sweet chrome finish topped off with a spectraflame paint job. 👍

Three bikes, between five Chevy Panels I have now(one's not pictured).


Black w/blue Panel's looking at the "Tempest" begrudgingly. Funny, because I happened to rob the bike from it, giving it to the Tempest one. No, it doesn't take much to amuse me. lol

 

[DwightSchrute12]

Nice, that looks really slick.👍

 

[a6m5]

Thank you man. 👍 I missed out on a loose one for $19, so I had to pay $26, but I'm happy with it.

 

[DwightSchrute12]

$26 doesn't seem too bad for that. Not sure what the going rate is though. Funny story, I'm pretty sure I have that Tempest one somewhere. Shame it doesn't come with the bike though. I love the blue detail on that series 6 bike.

 

[a6m5]

It was the lowest price I could find at the time + I think I got like $3 off the listed price. Tempest & my Garage one didn't come with one either. I agree, it takes so much away from those releases!

 

[Spacegoat]

Excellent group shot there Shinji. 👍 Also figures that the only Chev Van I have (Atari tempest) is one that doesn't come with the bike. Damnit.

Although the page isn't complete (Only completed 4x4 Dunes Racer to KITT and some Ferraris), you guys are free to check out the page layout!

http://athobbies.blogspot.ca/2014/01/diecasts.html

Questions? Suggestions? Incorrect/dead links or typos or wrong info? Let me know and thanks for looking!

 

[a6m5]

Thank you guys! @Spacegoat - Tempest Panel is one of my favorite in that group, and yes, total bummer they decided not to deliver those with the bikes. I hope you find a good buy on another Panel someday, if only to add the bike to the collection.

@AOS- Page is easy to navigate, I love the photos. I do wish that those photos revealed little more of the cars, but maybe those listings are just incomplete?

 

[CodeRedR51]

I would make the links at the top there a hyperlink instead of a plain text full link that's not clickable.

I wanted to work on mine tonight but my netbook won't let me work on it and watch the Dubai race at the same time, so the race won.

I don't quite understand what you're saying. The photos are intentionally cropped to just the face of the car. It serves as a tease for what the whole thing looks like. If you clicked on an image and it simple gave you a larger image of it rather than taking you to another page, that page has not been made yet.

You're talking about all those random URL addresses at the top? Those will eventually become links, that's WIP as of now. I've been making the individual pages for the castings for the time being. Those links you speak of will come around eventually.





Thanks for the feedback, guys.

 

[CodeRedR51]

You guys should keep an eye on this. It's going crazy already.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Photo doesn't show a whole lot(looks like cropped teaser), and when clicked, it doesn't expand by much, doesn't go to another page, and I did suspect that they were still under construction.

Well....... Vintage Racing alone's worth nearly a hundred bucks. Those older mainline routinely go for few dollars, ea. Boulevard can fetch up to $20 on a good day. All added up, in the eyes of a newbie collector, it may be up there, but I don't think it's out of line for them. Yet.

P.S. I looked at some RLC Bluebirds & they've been fetching around $70 + shipping. I was hoping to purchase one for around $50 less, but now I'm thinking that's going to take a lot of luck.
