Much prefer the Hot Wheels to be honest..

As a Kyosho fan, it pains me to say that HW wins this time. The proportions of the casting is better than the highly-detailed Kyosho. At the rear wing of the HW casting, you can still see the exhaust pipes, which is not the case in the Kyosho model.

Also, the width of the HW casting is actually close to the real one. The Sesto Elemento is a wide car...

Box full of Shelby Cobras have been documented, but I'll share this instead:

What I believe to be is a 2001 release JL Collection Release 3.

Axles are so darn short and sits kind of funny. I remember this was going to be a next Dream Cruisers, but then I must've forgotten about this because I had picked up an X-Men 2000 GT for the very same purpose weeks later. This stays in the collection. For now anyway.

Sweet additions, especially @a6m5!

I just got back from Rite Aid. Found two MB Dodge A100 Pickups and an '09 HW Mystery Car. If I matched everything up correctly on STD, I got a '60s Corvette Grand Sport.

My camera is charging, and I might wait until after Saturday to use it for something other than trains, so no pictures yet.

I'll be train spotting on Saturday, not that it matters in this thread, but just a heads-up.

EDIT: Guys, I'm a dumbo. I'm using my smartphone right now, with the availability to "Upload a File."

Here are the cars:

That 2000GT is smashing, Andy. Had never seen the red/wire wheels version. Very cool.

 

[a6m5]

Screw. You.

Cano Jarrod, thanks.

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?

I hope you meant "dump in it". Make it count, hoser.

One of the few cars I've actually owned from before I started collecting. Mine's the white James Bond one.

Thanks mang. 👍

Does this mean it's staying sealed?

Me neither!

 

[Johnny1996]

Does this mean it's staying sealed?

Yep. Last time I got a Mystery Car, I was in my take-everything-out-of-the-package phase. Those days are long gone.

 

[a6m5]

long gone.

I can't believe I didn't see that coming.

 

[Johnny1996]

I can't believe I didn't see that coming.

Hit you like a steamroller.
Oh forget it! I screwed up.

I hate the wheels on that Long Gone. In my opinion, they overuse them.

I was thinking the same until very, very recently. I guess it grew on me, but I don't have it, because I've hated it this entire time.

So no one knows what year this is?

 

[Johnny1996]

Almost bought one on the secondary market. Guy that was selling it also had a huge amount of customs and high-value cars, including Treasure Hunts. Had to be at least $200 worth of cars he had.

Buying premo line cars and THs on the secondary market goes against my belief that not doing so will lead me to much TH-finding success.

[Gotbeefboy564]

Thanks I was looking at the 32 Ford.

 

[Johnny1996]

Thanks I was looking at the 32 Ford.

Sure thing. Whatever I can to help another collector out.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Found out it was from the 1995 Speed gleamer series #1.

 

[Sonygamer455]

It's a nice casting. 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anyone want this?

 

[AOS-]

Anything special?

I hope you meant "dump in it". Make it count, hoser.

BOTH! I'll really make it count.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Have it.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anything special?

Small wheel error.

Have it.

No you don't.

 

[AOS-]

How much for it?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Small wheel error.

No you don't.

Yes I do.

Never mind.

 

[CodeRedR51]

^^^ No, you don't. (large picture alert)

@AOS- If you want it, we can figure it out when I get your package ready.

Also, stopped at 4 Walmarts today for G case stuff and came up empty handed. (except for the Ferrari) One store got a bin, but it was E case stuff. Going to hit another in the morning, then my G case hunting is postponed until Monday, too much to do this weekend.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Was straight from my iPhone I'll put them in thumbnails next time.

 

[a6m5]

Edit: Are they all small wheels? When you guys show me a car with a one wheel error, I'd be impressed. Just kidding, I still wouldn't care.

BOTH! I'll really make it count.

I hope Mexico never go to war with Canada, because they don't know who they are 🤬 with! plus all the crap shot down before making it to Mexico will land on us....

@AOS- If you want it, we can figure it out when I get your package ready.

We can figure out whether I want it or not right now actually: I'll take it so long as you don't want more than $2 for it. And yes, keep it carded

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Anyone have this AMC Javelin AMX?

Forgot to post this when I got it.

 

[mustang fanatic]

Here's a small portion of my collection:

Some older cars (redlines, blackwalls, etc.)

And finally, my prized possession. This is my favorite car ever!

 

[Sonygamer455]

That Dune Daddy is epic and do my eyes deceive me or is that a Custom Mustang?!

Lastly does that Shell truck have a hose that extends in and out?
