1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I skipped out on that Lincoln.

Good haul today(actually, all ordered online).

That Kingswood rules! 👍👍

 

[Johnny1996]

I went on a Like spree earlier. Awesome cars, guys!

Bad news for me: Both the real cars sitting in the driveway have issues. The car needs a new exhaust support and possibly a muffler, and the van has no power steering. That means that we have no form of transportation, so no diecast cars for a while.

 

[commodoreben]

You can drive without an exhaust support you just need a coat hanger and if the noise doesn't worry you the muffler shouldn't be a problem and cars never used to have power steering.

I got underneath the car to affix a coat hanger already and the muffler isn't an immediate issue, it just has two small holes that aren't going all the way through it. The van is already in the shop waiting for or getting repairs.

Still, nothings stopping me from posting what I already have.

Just two packages.....

Hot Wheels Retro Entertainment Back to the Future Toyota Pickup/Truck


This should look familiar to some of you.....

Johnny Lightning Employee/Holiday 1965 International D-Series Pickup


Added twist:

This time, also with the White Lightning Version.

I won't report you for a ludicrous claim, I'll report you for posting a 1:1 car in the wrong thread.

Don't kill me, thanks.

Promise's a promise.

I had never seen the BMW 8-Series by Matchbox before. One of my favorite designs, ever.

Had to get some groceries, found these... Lol.

My main go-to grocery store's pretty much crap on hot wheels/matchbox these days...... At one point, they even used to carry Boulevard cars!

Oh, go to all hell. Awesome.

However, I'll have to outshine your haul with pics tonight. One will do. They arrived yesterday.

........ AND HOW LONG HAVE WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YA ASS!?

Seriously, hurry up already!

If you really want to make a beach diorama, start with these :

I've bid on those on eBay before. Pretty cool set. 👍

Tomica

Love the Tomicas. 👍 That police box is sweeeeet! Does it light up?

 

[Johnny1996]

Nice trucks. I want the Scout NOW!

 

[a6m5]

I probably have like thousand cars, but paint job on these JL trucks are my favorite by far. My pics doesn't begin to do justice.

Edit: Wow. I just realized my reply to @Johnny1996 was omitted from my previous post.

I'm too lazy.

Same here with the photography. The omitted post though, I've never had happen. But it was a lengthy post.

No, the one with the Tomica Tank Truck, that was long. I hope you get your vehicles fixed soon. 👍

In case you may be interested, JL blog on that Holiday Truck.

Found out that the van issue is a bad power steering motor, but to continue with what we all want to see in this thread, I'm now finding a lot of the Tomb Up castings, and all appear to have that metal piece on the top that the one Lamley post mentioned was sharp enough to cut a finger.

 

[Spacegoat]

@a6m5. Seem to recall you posting that JL pickup a while back? Digging the White lighting version of it. Very cool. 👍

 

[Avalonbug]

Hey everyone! I'm new here, but I've watched this feed for a few days and have decided to make my own custom Hot Wheels Lamborghini Aventador. Here's a picture of the project so far. Sorry about the poor quality, a better picture will come soon. I am painting the bottom of the car a matte black and the rest a cherry red.

 

[Sonygamer455]

Well went to Wal Mart today and got these two Honda Civics. There were more last time I went, but this time only 3 were left including these two. Managed to get them before my Wal Mart screwed me over again.



Seen an interesting 9 pack today that had the Malaysian version of the Mercury Cyclone along with two Mustangs, a red COPO Camaro and a Corvette I hadn't seen before anywhere else. I almost got it, but I didn't feel like spending a bunch, plus the Cyclone's stripes were slightly scratched. It's been ages since I have bought another large multi pack of it's kind.

I've bid on those on eBay before. Very cool set. 👍

Fixed for accuracy.

I really wish I had that Surf Patrol set!

Quite honestly when I mentioned earlier about how I sometimes want an entire series, them action packs were precisely what I was referring to.

 

[swynder]

This thread just got me back to collecting these! Ihave a bunch of them in a shelf in the attic, might aswell go check them!

Looks pretty cool. I'm excited to see the finished product.

Wrong thread though.

Do it! Do it!

MacGyver.

More storage:
This one is a large plastic box that you can get at most Department Stores - and will also slide under your bed - it has wheels - and is deep enough to store more box-trays like mentioned in the previous post. Because it comes with a lid, it keeps your cars virtually dust-free and gleaming.



The lid may be flipped up to view the contents:



And there you have some subsets all laid out and ready for the taking:

On a related note - here's a closer look at the Bats in that tray (it's mostly oddities, novelties, superhero-type cars, etc



And some Marvel machines: (Why do superheroes need cars?)

I hope you don't move those totes around like I move mine. It'd be a grindfest in there.

2008 Best of British. Goes for some money.

2009 Best of British. Goes for even more money.

This post contains a lot of money.


and a jelly magnet on the side.

[Spacegoat]

The Hot Pursuit set and Andy's E-Types are freakin' awesome.

One on the top is the one you saw before.

Ah, okay. I had a feeling that I had seen it before.

Edit: @Avalonbug. Welcome to mate. And welcome to this thread @swynder.

 

[a6m5]

@photonrider - I use similar case to store CDs under the bed. 👍

@AOS- ....... BEAUTIFUL Jags. BEAUTIFUL.

@commodoreben Nothing showed up busted up, huh? Due to the size of that Hot Pursuit set, I was worried.

Ah, okay. I had a feeling that I had seen it before.

Yeah, this time around, White Lightning(JL equivalent of $TH) & standard one came together.

 

[commodoreben]

Nothing showed up busted. Thanks again A6
