1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I almost bought the M2 red Moon Pies truck today.

Almost.

 

[AOS-]

Almost doesn't bring food to the table. Almost also means there are no delightful pics to make people jelly and want to say "screw you".

I almost had a photo of a badass Countach to show off.

Almost. I missed and got Tooned Countach.

2014 Multi-pack yadayada Exclusive. Really wished Mattel made 5DOT wheels in size 3. This would've been a mod instantly.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Ah, but almost does bring food to the table with the $6 I saved not buying it.

I got that from a Target 20 car pack.

However, almost means you're not gonna cop 🤬 from Cano for not buying something to his tastes.

The "I am awesome" blog is getting an upgrade! Those big 120px squares that took forever to load will be replaced with teeny 2kb gif images. 2kb! Scrolling through these is going to be a breeeeeeeeeeeeeeze!*

Yep. It's the onry way actually.





*while all that's happening, one still cannot browse the blog by phone lol flock phones.

One that says "Summit"? I recommend getting that one. One of my favorite mainlines.

Yeah that's the one! Looked really cool. I'll have to pick it up next time.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Summit and gulf chevelles

 

[a6m5]

I hated it at first. Grew on me, I bought it. Liked it so much I had to open it.

By pure coincidence, as soon as I left this thread, one of my favorite seller listed the Super Treasure version for under $12(shipped), loose, so I got that one coming.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

So is this

The green one?
Would it still be $125 usd loose or a little bit less because it's missing a back wheel?

 

[a6m5]

$1.25, tops...... Except I bought Diet Coke with the change & I don't want to break a twenty.



Cano would know! Classic Hot Wheel master, that man......

 

[RCKakashi14]

Looking at the photos of Kyosho 1/64s I posted yesterday...


...I might get that red 911 GT1. Or if I'm in a mood for a hot hatch, then the Golf I GTI could be the one I'm taking home.

The Golf looks pretty cool, but the Acrostar (James Bond Jet) looks awesome, as does the Lamborghini Jarama.

@Cano only found one of those Cuda's. Been out for a while, not many in stores anymore.

Ah, that's still awesome. Thanks a lot dude.

Maisto All Star '55 Buick Century

Oi damn I had never seen that one. Jason, think you can find one of those for me?

 

[Sonygamer455]

I noticed how narrow the 500 is.

You want to talk narrow, try comparing the black Hot Wheels Ferrari Testrossa on the left to the ex Corgi Ferrari Testarossa on the right.

Edit: Reuploaded since I no longer need Photobucket.

Not at my Wal-Mart, and nowhere else in town.

And this beauty arrived today:

Nice car mate, I found one last weekend in store:tup: My first Super of 2014

Also heaps of great cars being posted by everyone

 

[a6m5]

How do you do it sensei!?

Congrats. I guess. 👍

Yeah not to sure, just ran in for a loaf of bread and thought I'd have quick look on pegs and there it was at the front:tup:

When I go get bread, sometimes I don't even find the bread I'm looking for, let alone basic hot wheels. Your grocery store pwns mine.

Who the hell finds a Super when they're going to buy a loaf of bread. Lucky.

 

[Andrew R]

I just picked up the chevelle at my supermarket. Damn cool car!

 

[a6m5]

Nice. It is damn cool. 👍

Another coincidence, same car(well, that $TH version). I just got the email from the seller who I ordered the Super Treasure Hunt Summit Chevelle from? Looong time ago, I bought this M2 Chevelle from him:

Orange one, bottom row.


He found the missing grille, and it is being shipped out with the Super Treasure Hunt Chevelle. Better late than never & I am happy. 👍

Couldn't upload the file here so I put it on my google drive. It's not 100% complete but if you see something you might be interested in and don't know what year it's from, etc just ask. @Cano might be interested too.

Edit: Ignore the price column, that's for future reference.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Went to canton mi today
https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl
They had a Kroger there


All of these were there.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Damn you and your Civic. Still pissed the case Andy and I ordered didn't have a single one.

Now I'm gonna have to buy one off the internet.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

There were a few there but I was in a hurry.
Errors?

Smudge on the hood and roof

 

[CodeRedR51]

If you are an error collector, maybe. I would have either left it or used it for a custom. When I need a car for my collection I will grab all of the ones there are on the pegs or in the dump bin and look them all over. One with the best finish (correctly aligned tampos, no goofy suspension stance) is the one I take home.
