Ahmed has the one with livery. Still needs more stuff, looks too white I passed on it and only picked up the M3 GTR and the M1 with livery.

Yeah, in the last 6 months or so Ahmed has dragged me to hell indeed, my wallet huuuuurrtttsssss a looooot after picking up like 25-30 Kyoshos, with the full Tyrrel set coming our way. I just haven't even taken pictures of all of them. But juuuust for you, the next car I shoot will be the M3 (:

@Cano the Cool Classics CRX is actually $2.50, I was looking at the wrong receipt.

Guess Target sells them cheaper or something.

 

[Cano]

Aaand would it cost me $2.50?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Of course. No discounts.

Edit: +tax.

Edit 2: 4th of July cars are hitting Kroger stores as we speak.

 

[yabiggoose]

Only one there that I wish I could get is the Ford woodie..

Edit: if anyone found 2 and would be able to send them to aus I'd pay for them and shipping and effort haha serious

 

[Cano]

Of course. No discounts.

Edit: +tax.

Ungh. So, $3?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Ish, what's 8.7% on $2.49? 22 cents?

 

[Cano]

Ack, enough with this. Yes I'll take it. Freaking thing. I don't even like it how it sits lol, maybe I'll blow it appart.

Which leads me to ask: has this casting been at least mentioned for a mainline appearance?

I think so? Rumor had it that it was supposed to be modified (no hood vents, etc) but I haven't seen anything about it recently.

Ah, so it's good to at least have this version of how the casting was originally conceibed. Yeah add it up.

This was the one "based" off... what was it? Overrev?

Maybe. I just googled it and got some images that are inappropriate for work so someone else will have to say.

 

[Cano]

Ah, really?

Anyone else lose YouTube subscriptions when they changed their site around? I just had to resubscribe to RaceGrooves because they dropped it. Missing a bunch more too.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got a great score today.

Matchbox k1500, and cayenne. Then went to a hobby store And finally found the damn 500.

Got these at the same hobby store

2 bat mobiles and a non treasure hunt gasser. I saw a rescue duty basic but I didn't get it.

Well here are my purchases from Wednesday I have been meaning to post.
Couldn't resist The Jetsons Capsule Car, loved the '29 Ford Pickup as well. May do a custom of the Ford sometime soon and just paint it black and leave it like that.


Got two 3 packs. Got the one on the left for the Civic I had been searching and for that orange vehicle (whatever it is). One on the right was for the 2nd Civic for customizing and for the Infiniti. Seen another 3 pack exactly like it, almost debated on getting it so I would have 3 vehicles to customize, but I didn't get them. You guys are going to like what I have in mind for the Civic.

Add all that up and it totals up to a little over $17. Talk about overspending, the last time I spent this much was when I went with my neighbor to the Antique Mall to get the Custom Police Cruiser and the Seasider back in June of 2012. I don't regret it though.

Here are my purchases from Kit Kringle I got just today.

Got these two for the wheels. Catapult is for the Civic, Dixie Challenger is for my SRT Viper. Been very displeased with them Corvette wheels since they don't roll right, so I got this one. Now I can take them horrible wheels off that Vette and put it's original ones back on.


Darn you photonrider! You mention Nascar vehicles and then next thing I know, I see them in Kit Kringle. You should talk more often.


Treasure Hunts were still there, but I didn't get any because I am running low in cash.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Check the wheels on those Civics before you drill them please.

 

[AOS-]

That blister looks like it's been opened previously.

 

[Sonygamer455]

Good point. Just checked them and they both have OH5's. I only plan on drilling one of them, the other is for keeps by the way.

I read your post earlier regarding the Infiniti's and I did look at the two I saw at Wal Mart and there was no difference between the two, but I will keep a look out.

 

[CodeRedR51]

It's legit, found in multipacks too. Photo from a well known collector on HWC.

The package for the 3-pack will say "Made in Thailand" in huge letters on the back.

Edit: And looks like this:

@a6m5 that blue Camaro top left will be different from the one you are getting from me. Want it too?

 

[Sonygamer455]

Picture please?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Hit refresh.

 

[Sonygamer455]

Gotcha.

So if I have it right, black stripe, cars printed on package and the words "Made in Thailand" are what I should look for if I want to find the other variant of the Infiniti?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah made in Thailand in bold letters, near the top right on the back of the package.

 

[Spacegoat]

with the full Tyrrel set coming our way.

Whoa, you and Ahmed are getting a full set of P34's? Forget little old Shinji, curse both of you.

 

[Sonygamer455]

I will keep a look out for that Infiniti and any other unusual variants like it. I am kind of obsessed with that other Infiniti now.

All those Thailand cars are different in one way or another from the cars that have been out for a while. I found this out with the black Falcon Racecar and it's chrome wheels (usually white). If you have a HWC registration, look here:

[Sonygamer455]

Wait, black Falcon racecar with chrome wheels....

Hmmmmmmm......

Are they 10SP's?

EDIT: I have a registration but I haven't been on there in years. Need to find my old email regarding it.
