View attachment 126527
Got it because I didn't have a new Beetle.

Have a little patience, would ya? I get new cases 2-4 weeks later than Americans.

 

[a6m5]

@a6m5 You know you want to help me get one of these...

I will get you one..... whether you want this 2000GT to be that one is up to you.

My internet access at work is shoddy at very best though(remember the RLC Bluebird?), so while I can definitely try, I can't guarantee that I will deliver.

Found this for you A6 if you get desperate

Thanks Ben. That's about how much they've been going for online, but I'll keep this store in mind. :tup:

I've been busy, but I will have the pricing & availability on those Johnny Lightning I told you about tomorrow.

Great grabs a6m5, most of what I see is awesome and I don't have it with the exception of the Road Racers series.

That is one cool set. Flabbergasted how it was never sold in the States. I question the sanity of these retailers.

I wish HW would make the following:

1. Ariel Atom
2. Hennessey Venom GT
3. A mainline series of some cars in Gran Turismo.

Thoughts?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Would be cool if they'd make a Red Bull X1.

 

[a6m5]

Last time I had fun playing Gran Turismo was GT3, but I definitely agree with the #3(real riders would be mo' better though).

 

[Sonygamer455]

Nissan R92CP would be awesome!

 

[Johnny1996]

*meme

Hot Wheels

ALL THE GT CARS!

 

[a6m5]

Nissan R92CP would be awesome!

Damn it Missed by one.

 

[MedigoFlame]

There still needs to be an Nissan Skyline GT-R R33 model... Would love to see it as a Hot Wheels diecast as I missed out on the Jada ones.

Honestly...(I'll probably get 🤬 for this) I prefer the R33 to the R32...and maybe even the R34.

 

[Johnny1996]

I like all Skylines.

Yay! Free from impending flames of doom!

 

[a6m5]

It's OK to be different....... but you are weird.

 

[Johnny1996]

On a serious note, I do actually like all Skylines. Now if I can just get my friends to accept that I have a JDM side, but not one who create cars worthy of being in the Questionable Modifications thread.

 

[Spacegoat]

Damn it Missed by one.

Pffft. Show off.

And when it comes to cars in GT games, there can only be one.

I like all Skylines.

Much prefer the older Skylines myself. Everything after the R32, is meh. Just my opinion though.

 

[a6m5]

God, I LOVED those Vipers....... SO MUCH. 👍

 

[newuser2k9]

Speaking of Gran Turismo cars...

 

[Spacegoat]

God, I LOVED those Vipers....... SO MUCH. 👍

That Viper and the Complex String back on GT3= Awesome.

Also looking at your R88C's again. I really like the #23 with the Calsonic livery. Damn that looks nice.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Picked up the Cool Classics Toyota pickup today. Left a couple behind that I might be able to grab for anyone that wants/needs one. Not until Thursday though. Haven't really been on here much, work and getting my car running has kept me away from all things internet.

[Cano]

@commodoreben Oooooooooooooooo dude, but that isn't just "a Hotwheels Hotbird", that's a BROWN hot Bird, the lowest production version of that car, and in great shape. that's the greatest score here since my CIPSA, easy. All the other cars are good, but that thing is just ace. Very good, Ben!

 

[commodoreben]

I knew that Hot Bird was special but I had no idea it was as special as your CIPSA. I nearly brought a lot of 200+ cars a couple of years ago to get a brown Hot Bird but I was sniped. The lot of cars that this Hot Bird came in only cost me $9 AUS plus postage.

 

[Johnny1996]

Its been a while since I brought up the Kmart mail-in Chevelle. Until just a bit ago, I had completely forgot about it. Many of you may remember me saying that I wanted to get the car. Long story short, because I forgot about the car, and thus don't have it nor the 20 basics needed to get the car. I'm actually glad that I don't have the car.

I got a bad notion about the car when I got a lazy reply from HWC. The :censored:holes screwed up then, and according to Lamley, the same :censored:holes screwed up yet again on the car. This time, its the plastic base on the Chevelle. It was said in the article on HWC that the car would get a metal base, but Lamley says that it got a plastic base.

I'm even more peed off now, because I still have time to get the car, but I don't want to get a car that's surrounded in hypocrisy, and maybe even controversy. If Hot Wheels doesn't get their 🤬 together, I'll abandon all premium cars, no matter what they are or if they would be purchased for collecting purposes or customizing purposes.

I already go light on the premium cars since I can get more cars for less money if the cars are basics, but I'm nearly done.

_____________________________________________


I'm sorry for that mini rant, and now on to a different subject: First of all, great new cars everyone. Second, a question:

I'm thinking that any of my cars I have for sale can be swapped with someone free of charge for loose cars, ranging from four to ten loose cars for one carded car, depending on the loose cars' conditions. Does that sound like a good deal for both sides to you guys?

I get rid of any carded cars I don't want, and someone gets rid of any loose cars they don't want for cars that they do want. Both sides are happy. ​

 

[MedigoFlame]

Has anyone seen any signs of the G case stuff with the Fiat 500 and the (properly) recolored Sesto Elemento? No dump bins here and only a sale of them being 84 cents. (With a giant mess at my local Walmart...)

 

[a6m5]

I haven't, but I haven't looked.

On the way home....



One Supra & 2000GT for me. Tumbler, second Supra & Porsche I picked up for @commodoreben. I know you were looking for the Supra for sure, let me know if you want the other two Ben.

That Viper and the Complex String back on GT3= Awesome.

GT3 was so much fun. I do miss playing Gran Turismo, but newer GT games I don't at all miss.

Also looking at your R88C's again. I really like the #23 with the Calsonic livery. Damn that looks nice.

I like that one, too. Smooth looking car.

I wish I could quit, period. Damn addiction.....

I prefer to trade number of cars for fewer cars in return!

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Might get that Tunbler if I see it. That'll be my 4th bat mobile.

 

[Johnny1996]

I keep forgetting to mention this, but I've been posting on mobile, which is why my new cars haven't been showed yet. Anyway, its been a while since I found a Treasure Hunt (November, I think), so I made this:

​

...as a form of encouragement.

I'll be keeping it until about Monday, then will switch to a custom made avatar that @AOS- made.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Going shopping Friday since I have no school hopefully I can finds some good stuff.

Only two bins and they were both picked through. Not a Fiat to be found. I hear the Walmart Neighborhood Market's are getting bins too, so look there as well.

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

Hello guys, it's been a while.

Just found this from YouTube:



Would you spend 2200 yen on that? Oh, it looks the same as the ones made by the OEM.

i like that, but i sadly i stopped collecting high end Japanese diecast in 1:64...(over 20$) instead just moved on to 1:43 for that, but i have to say, that sure is packed full of detail, but 21$ is still abit too high.. specially when Dabox had them awhile back for 10$ free ship. sold out in minutes.

You're basically paying extra for a box with a brand name.


I could get a similar one for half the price.


Off-topic.... I could get the TLV Nismo iDX when I go to Japan this August. By that time, it has been released and available in pegs.

Is that a "special" dealer edition? ...i think things like that are rip offs
