1/64 Model Collectors Thread

$8.00 is not too bad a price. Nice car - I would open it.

I have a couple of those Highway 35s. Really great wheels on them. Very fast cars.

Messed up links?

EDIT: Maybe it's just my computer :S

Here's another oddball line I collect.

I have the Road Runner from the series. Ben does, too. I gave him one.

Hey hey, someone knows Ben

He's a really good guy. Thanks for doing that for him (:

How much of this thread have you read?

Here's another of my 35s:

 

[mustang fanatic]

You plastic wrap your cars too? I had to do that when I didn't have anywhere else to put them. I have WAY to many cars btw.

Here's another of my 35s:

My Deora II's surfboards kept flopping around and getting lost. I rolled up two little pieces of tape and nailed those suckers to the car XD

You have no idea how fragile the AcceleRacers decals are XD

I can practically rub off Power Rage's decals with just my thumb.

I've experienced that before. I know what you mean.

My Deora is a legendary racer in my stable. It's thrashed! The 35s have a super finish, though, very durable. I race a lot of my cars; I have all kinds of test tracks.

BTW - in case you want to add something to a previous post, you can use the 'EDIT' button to add something new, or even fix it; you can also quote several members in one post if you wish.

Thanks for the advice! I'll keep that in mind.

*sigh*

I'm quite the oddball. But these skateboard Hot Wheels Transformers were pretty awesome

I do understand why they didn't catch on though.

Variety is the spice of life!

I'm enjoying seeing these various, peculiar lines that you collect. Most of which I didn't know of before!

One of the things that make a collectible's value go up is if no one collects it and all the items get misplaced, lost, thrashed, etc - and then there are only a few of such items left in the hands of oddball collectors like you. So it can be worth something to the right person in the years to come - or maybe even now. I doubt many such collections exist - or are even put up for sale.

Ask @a6m5 - he was here before the world was invented,

👍!

Same here. Always enjoy seeing what kind of things other people enjoy collecting. Big welcome to @Elton Lin.

Welcome to the thread and how do I know you?

 

[VXR]

I had to resort to eBay, but I'm glad to have it at last.

 

[CodeRedR51]

@Cano when you want me to send your package out?

Speaking of eBay, got tired of waiting for the J case bins with the zamacs (probably wouldn't find the zamacs anyway...) so I bought the zamac FR-S off eBay last night.

ASDFGHJKL:

I'd just wish people would dice up Speed Machines for a change.

Please let me know what you've done with the remaining parts of the 2 or 3 and I'll be sure to give them either a revival or a proper funeral XD

I would've done the exact opposite: preserve Speed Machines, dissect Acceleracers.*

The remaining bodies are still with me. I can give you those as well as some of my other disassembled cars if you like. PM me.





* I've dissected about 4 Speed Machines.***

***Don't worry, they weren't popular ones.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I was digging through old bits of cars I drilled apart many years ago and I have some speed machines in there. (Audi TTS, Nissan GT-R, Porsche GT1-thing) Which is funny because I need the GT-R's for my collection now.

 

[AOS-]

Speed Machines GT-Rs aren't cheap now. That black one looks almost identical to 2010 Nightburnerz funnily enough. It should've been a yellow or blue or something!

 

[Cano]

@Cano when you want me to send your package out?

Whennnn you find the Auto Worlds?

Can you remind me what's in my box btw?

I can snap a photo tonight. If we wait on the Auto Worlds, it'll never get sent out.

I'm not going to Phoenix this weekend, and the chances of my single small town Walmart getting them is, well, I have a better chance of winning the lottery.

Dung. Well yeah, get me a picture and a $ quote for all the stuff, and we'll see. I'll be sincere, I don't have a single penny now for cars, so it might take at least another week for me to have some dough available ):

There's also that Majorette Megane Trophy you wanted from me.

Speaking of which, did you also want this one too?

2012 Majorette Racing Series.

 

[photonrider]

👍!

I'm going to suffer for that. He will surely defend his honour by posting plethoras of irresistible die-casts till the baby comes out and gives that 'look.' Then he knows he's won.

On Speed Machines wheels - yes, great wheel donors.

Elton's Robo wheels made me go look at some of my 'oddities', and . . . I . . . must confess that I have a few.
Secret pics are in order.

Got these today


My second treasure hunt.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Dump bin was gone, but found...just one Veneno.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Dump bin was gone, but found...just one Veneno.

You said you missed the last bin, are you checking the whole store? The last super TH I found was in a bin by the registers on the food side of the store. Sometimes they put them back by electronics, or in the middle isles of the store. If you only found that one J case car (by the pegs?) chances are you missed a bin somewhere...

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

My walmart still hasn't restocked their pegs, there was a few "new" cars in the dump bin.

Funny enough I did check the majority of the store...albeit not the clothes or drugs section. Was doing some other purchases there as well, so I had a decent look around. My Walmart tends to leave them out for maybe a couple of weeks and as soon as they start becoming empty, they just get rid of them...

 

[Johnny1996]

I have a ton of cars to share. Here goes:

Mystery Models Cadillac LMP, for customizing.

Matchbox delivery truck, for customizing.

Steel Flame, for customizing.

Ford Maverick, Corvette Grand Sport, and AMC Javelin. All for customizing, these will get transformed into Trans Am racers.

Matchbox Ford Escape, for customizing.

Porsche 911, for customizing.

VW Thing, not for customizing.

A bunch of carded Hot Wheels. Cars include the Screamliner and Mastretta. No THs are in this picture.

And finally two MBs. I'd like to know if the H2 Concept is hard to find or not, and if the Dune Dog not having a window piece is an error. Thanks in advance.

Checking outside the toy aisle to find cars. U guys r hardcore!
