1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[CodeRedR51]

I was watching the movie "Paul" last night, and when they are in the comic store in that small town, one of the guys walks past a stand with some Hotwheels on it. And there was a treasure hunt! I was like, "Ohhhh!".

 

[Downhill Dino]

You know you've been collecting/searching too much when ^^^

 

[a6m5]

The "T H" stands for Treasure Hunt.

Ah, I'd never have guessed it. Thanks. 👍

They did rip off my baseball team logo though!

 

[Sly Guy]

Been trying to sell these unopened ones for a while. Mostly first editions from 2002-2004? I also just realized the pics for the first few are terrible.

Box 1

Box 2

Now a bunch of loose ones from when I was a kid. Anyone remember that show Rescue 911?

Those are Target or Wal-Mart only special editions, that0s why yours doesn't have them.

Damn. There are some rare cars there. The Corgis are really scarce, as are the grey-wheels Lesneys. Damn dude. I really want to cry, you know.

Is that a Challenger on the top left corner? Looks pretty sweet. 👍

I got mine at Target. Just my luck. It's been like this all week.

Im glad I could make you cry. What have you brought lately cano? Its been a while since we have seen pics and your finds are always amazing and that is a Challenger on the top left. I had seen allot of them around and I finally brought one.

Nothing really relevant... at least nothing that has arrived yet. I've gotten a couple e-bay lots with some good stuff, but it'll be a while until they pop around here. And over here the freaking usual flea market has been DEAD for weeks. It's all been supermarket stuff, nothing relevant, really. I'll wait until I amass something considerable to post in here.

Got back from a lea market and there was this guy with a table full of hotwheels, but I limited myself to six.

Is there a 2011 Carbonator?, I've been looking for one but there doesn't seem to be any in the UK.

Whoa. Nice one, man. 👍 Anyone know if there's a Torpedo out without the 2-tone paint scheme? Personally I like cars with more realistic/factory paint schemes better than those with fancy colorful Hot Wheels schemes, but that's just me.

 

[a6m5]

I generally don't care for flash either, but I think this one works. Nice find. 👍

I've yet to see a Treasure Hunter. How rare are they, and what kind of luck have you guys had finding them in stores?

I have a lot. I passed them up numerous times already because I didn't like some.

That may have something to do with the fact nobody actually collects here.

I've passed up a bunch of them too. Some models actually came out by the dozen, last time I went to a Wal Mart I left behind about 15 regular TH 1965 Pontiac GTOs; just a week ago I found two regular Mustang Funny cars... the regular cars do show uo, it's the rubeer-tired ones the ones that are REALLY difficult to find due to scalpers.

And yes, there are Tucker Torpedos with solid colors., they came out as Classics around 4 years ago:

The TH is the second time the car has ever been released.

 

[Robin]

Thats a sweet TH $miglo, lots of nice detail and looks pretty huge.

I've yet to see a Treasure Hunter. How rare are they, and what kind of luck have you guys had finding them in stores?

It's quite hard to find here in the UK and I think its mainly to do with the frequency of new deliveries which can be months apart because they don't sell very fast. I did find a '11 Super T-Hunt though and its was on a long card... I was very happy!
