1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I'm sure there's a way to resize them without going through a huge deal of trouble, but we'd appreciate it if something was done.





Box arrived from 1hotwheeler. More disappointments.

- 1985 White Hub RR Shelby Cobra, windshield almost snapped off because he wrapped it so tight.

- HW Collectible Classic Cobra windshield missing.... entirely! Broke right off the body, wasn't like that in the picture. The hell am I going to do with it now? The eff, man!

I usually post each of my pictures from my phone as a thumbnail.

Aw man.
That's ridiculous on the seller's part.

I mentioned before, but first time similar thing happened with one seller(Chevelle w/missing grille), he refunded for the car. Second time, same seller, Dodge Daytona's rear wing snapped off in transit, I superglued it back together. Cars I received today from another seller I had minor issues with, but luckily I did little bit better than you.

So, uh, your Ferrari showed up today. Weird.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Your yellow police car looks like the AMC bellow it.

 

[a6m5]

I got beef with you, Gotbeefboy! That was a joke directed to our Aussie members. They all recognize that paint scheme!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Oh man. MUST. HAVE.

 

[a6m5]

I don't particularly care for it, but I'd certainly welcome more TV/movie cars. 👍

 

[Sonygamer455]

Now this is awesome! I can't help but stare. Never seen it before.

 

[a6m5]

OK, after witnessing Corgi set, I am now onboard with the AW Christine. Sorry Sonygamer.

 

[Sonygamer455]

You do that.

That set fuels my imagination to a whole new level.

 

[AOS-]

Maybe I'm just overreacting, but I figured that guy would've took extra care on a car that's nearly 30 years old. I glued the windshield back on its piece, but it's not in as good condition as before. These things aren't tools.

I don't particularly care for it, but I'd certainly welcome more TV/movie cars. 👍

But it's a Fury!!! I'm furious!

 

[EvanJamesLee]

I have a couple of the nice 70s Matchbox models that were made in England. They are in rough shape but for the price I got them for I guess there ok, they were in a free pile.

I don't understand why somebody would put them in a free pile but I will gladly take them.

Hot Wheels Lamborghini Sesto Elemento:

Something different this time...

Kyosho vs. HW comparison to be posted shortly.

 

[a6m5]

boogytoo's cars are draining money from my bank account again. Unfortunately, I missed out on this BEAUTIFUL BABY.

 

[Cano]

@AOS-

Are these it? Or were there more in you box? I can't tell for sure because they all arrived together with the other hundreds of cars, but if I do remember correctly (it's been days since I unwrapped all the cars) yours came wrapped in paper?

And to everyone else, win one of Andy's future contests and you might end up with such a bunch of awesome:

EDIT: Also, super awesome haul a6m5, not a single bad car in the entire package.

And also, sad to hear about the white hub RR Cobra, Andy. That thing is hard. Or expensive, depending on how you want to see it. Pics?

 

[AOS-]

Huh. So that's where my '81 Camaro, '64 Chevelle and the Cobra II went. Better take it off my collection and index. Sorry, Shinji Fries!!!

 

[Cano]

BWAHAHAHAHAA, suck it japanamerican!

 

[a6m5]

You guys rule.

I didn't realize that was the Cobra II thing. Not to worry, I ordered 15 car lot for $20(free ship), and it has the Mustang II that I thought Andy's car was going to be + also that same Cobra II Cano now has. Congrats on the cars Cano, but you suck it, too. 👍

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

What year/car is this? I looked @ south Texas diecast but I couldn't find anything.

 

[Cano]

Congrats on the cars Cano, but you suck it, too. 👍

No, Andy sucks it, we now have an awesome car on our hands:

And he doesn't

 

[Spacegoat]

I don't know what this thing is.....

You have got to be kidding me. An AMC in full Mad Max police car livery?

Screw. You.

 

[AOS-]

No, Andy sucks it

Next time I send you a box, remind me to take a dump on it before sending it out. Does it hurt to be the least bit grateful I gave away cars in the first place?

 

[yabiggoose]

Went to the supermarket for groceries.

Lol.

 

[Cano]

Lol, if I wasn't I wouldn't even have mentioned the stuff, let alone taken a pic and such stuff.

HW vs. Kyosho - Lamborghini Sesto Elemento:

 

[Cano]

Well look at that. HW actually got the thing right for HW estandards, and the Kyosho actually looks quite sloppy for Kyosho standards. Both are ugly as spitting in church.

 

[RCKakashi14]

The Kyosho model's rear wing was too tall, and it should have lower profile tires.

 

[Cano]

The Kyosho model's rear wing was too tall, and it should have lower profile tires.

And the wing supports should be x5876456897 thinner, and the stance is truck-like, and the rear detailing seems to suck, and such stuff. I mean this thing was expensive.
