1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[commodoreben]

Only one I ever bought before this was the Donkey Kong. Zombie would've been the second ever, but like with the Donkey Kong, nostalgia kicked in & I caved.

P.S. I'll have the total for your shipment soon. I just finished the list last night.

Cool Ill keep an eye out for it.

Picked up a 10 pack and some single cars today.

I'm back; week of no free time I'm coming off.

I was a dollar store earlier and had a would-be '62 Corvette TH, but it was not the TH variant, once again.

Awesome cars to all of you.

Well here are my latest purchases I got yesterday. Thankfully the dump bin was still there.

Another Sharkrusier to add to my collection, a 68' Mercury Cougar I just couldn't put down, finally got a Bump Around for customizing and then a Copo Camaro zamac.

Before I left Wal Mart, I picked a 3 pack. I felt it was about time I got me a Celica, so I did. Going to use the wheels on the Corvette for my next Viper project.

Noticed something unusual about the Cougar shortly after buying it.

I looked at the rear and noticed it wasn't properly assembled:

Looked at the bottom and noticed the part of the back rivet that holds the body down was missing. Interesting.

I still have yet to find a Zmac.

 

[Sonygamer455]

There were two of that one when I went to Wal Mart including that one. I try to grab them as soon as I see them because they don't tend to stay on the pegs long for me.

*ZAMAC.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Thought it was Zmac. Oh well.

 

[a6m5]

It made me think of Big Mac. What is the green car in the middle of the 3-pack in Sony's picture?

On somewhat related note, my 100 eBay auctions are closing now, expectedly with just handful of them selling. Remind me never to do this again. Lot of work for very little money. Since eBay relist up to 3 times, this was just round 1. While I got your attention, if you like mainines, check out what I have on eBay. Let me know which car you want to buy, so I can cancel the auction. Like before, you pay only the starting bid & you can count on 20% off of that. You pay the actual postage!

Also got a pair of Power Lifts, Buick Century Police Cars and a 911 GT3 aswell as another Fangster TH.

Love the power lifts & Buick police car. I'm gonna need both of those. 👍

You could always just mail me concealed cash.

 

[Johnny1996]

Those are some nice cars. Go figure that its filled with muscle cars. Now one step closer to letting out a scream of anger.

Do I buy a lot of muscle cars? I ordered couple of AMC Pacers today..... And some muscle cars.

Johnny - not sure if you know, but you can purchase a pre-paid credit card and use that; most electronic payments can be made with one. For instance my 14 year old wanted to purchase 'Starbound' recently and asked me to pay via PayPal. I got him a 25.00 pre-paid Visa card from the cashier's display at the grocery store, and in no time at all he was using it online like he was a Walll Street exec flashing the Visa Black.

If the grocery stores near you don't have them, surely one of the Big boxes near you would.

Oh! I forgot to mention: nabbed the 8C today. (In black.) Is that the only colour? Should I be googling? Speak up!

Something to think about, but I'd have the amount used up in a day at the amount of stuff I find I want on eBay.

About the 8C: I think, if I remember correctly from a post on Lamley, there will be a red recolor. I'm going to check Lamley now and see if I'm right, and if so, I'll post the link.

 

[photonrider]

Yes, I thought I saw a Red - I was surprised to see a Black on the pegs. My hand had already moved before my brain went into gear. It picked up a Red M3, too, without thinking, but I was glad it did.

[Gotbeefboy564]

I want it. I have the black one too. I also want the green Pagani, yellow aventador J, grey Sesto elemento and fiat 500.

 

[Sonygamer455]

What is the green car in the middle of the 3-pack in Sony's picture?

It's a '68 Chevy Nova. I admit I didn't care too much for it at first, but I am kind of hooked on it now.

I thought it was. Very cool. 👍

 

[Sonygamer455]

Indeed. Them 3 packs tend to have some interesting vehicles. I seen a green "Tooned" Countach just recently in one of them. I don't really care as much for the "Tooned" vehicles anymore, but I kind of dig that one.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Matchbox C6 Coupe

Don't remember if I posted this Hot Wheels C6 Corvette.

 

[RCKakashi14]

I like those C6 Convertibles. Too bad I didn't have at least one of their variations.

Though I have the FAO Schwarz version, which has been posted here...

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

More randoms from my collection

Hot wheels ZR1

Matchbox Escalade

Hot wheels Escalade.

 

[DwightSchrute12]

I still have yet to find a Zmac.

I never had any problem finding them last year. My count this year: 0. No, not 0 purchased. 0 seen.

 

[Johnny1996]

I've got about 20 ZAMAC cars all from '13, but none for this year yet. There's a Walmart about 30 miles out from my location that always has a dump bin, full pegs, and ZAMAC cars. My lucky place, except the cars in the dump bin are in terrible condition.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Here's a few more cars

Jada ford Gt

Jada Mercedes SL

Matchbox Navigator

Matchbox Opel Speedster

The power lifts forks actually lift up and it would hold the weight of a matchbox or hotwheels if the forklift was a bit heavier

I have the older one(from couple years ago) & yes, I tried the same thing.

 

[yabiggoose]

I saw a bunch of red 8C's yesterday. Thought nothing of it.
