I'd say the T-Bird Stocker is much closer:

But based on that provided image alone, it keeps looking like a boxier version of a Fairlady.
Oh yeah I forgot about that T-Bird. :ouch:
 
No hard feelings; just an observance is all.

Anyway, I have to interrupt my streak of CMS cars once again to photographically tell you guys I found some of the newer HW mainlines today:

Porsche+993+GT2+(2014+HW+City:White).jpg

2014 HW City Night Burnerz

Nissan+Skyline+HT+2000+GT-X+(2014+HW+Workshop).jpg

2014 HW Workshop Then and Now. No Rollcage.

Yeah I sharpie'd the lights, tube and intercooler. It looked so bland without something to make those parts more noticeable.


P.S. Flat white sucks for the method I use to photograph these toys.

That's fine. :)

Hmm... Why do I feel like those two cars are going to be HTF, especially the Hakosuka? :indiff:

Still no signs of these 2......sigh
 
Ah, I see. I'm a stupid idiot sometimes.

Stupid and idiot together? What are you? A masochist? Actually, no, everybody makes mistakes, Johnny - don't be hard on yourself. :) I doubt there's any perfection-nazis in here. 👍

Kind of do want...

Can't wait for Lamley to post up some more pics! :D

What is it about this car that attracts me? Looks kind of spacey, eh? Are you getting it, Kev?

Now that is sex on wheels!

Talking about sexy and cars - there was this guy on GTCentral (not sure if that Forum exists anymore - used to be run by a guy called GTFox and was quite busy during the heydays of GT4) who used to go around licking real cars, and coming back to tell us about it. He's licked Ferraris, Porsches, Maseratis, Bimmers . . *sigh . . the things that people do . . . :lol: Was kind of hilarious in a way when he would report back on the latest car he had licked.

And since you found the Cord smexy - here's a couple more shots:

Should I break it open and sell-off the surf boards?
 
Can't say I've ever done that around a car!

Brings back memories of a certain photo on the Internet of a man enjoying his Land Rover...

Well, I have to admit that I've occasionally caressed the curves of a car - but who hasn't done that at one time or another? It's the feeling we get sometimes when we hold a crisp blister pack in our hands, or we are clutching a newly opened Hot Wheels.

But licking real cars? Who knows where that car has been?

Jarrod: Is it messed up that my favorite part of your haul is the UFO card on the Camaro? It's just so cool. :lol:
That yellow combined with the chrome and white walls. Gotdamn. For me, that's just about on par with the red body/white wall colour scheme.
I know what you mean. 50's scheme's a hit & miss for me, but they are all unique & when they work, they are EPIC.
Damnit everything's in quote tags. :/
I tried looking this rally game up on google last night, but I couldn't find it. I did come across SEGA Rally, but this game, I'm pretty certain Celica was the only car you could use. I'm gonna look again soon, because crap like this drive me crazy. :lol:
In my country maybe lolx
Irony: You guys are closer to the actual hot wheels production than we are. :lol:
EDIT: There we go. Wheelswap (:
That is tight. 👍 Can you photoshop that on my spur?

:P

Edit: AmiAmi, you rock. Again. Check out the backorder they came thru on for me:

TOY-SCL2-00819.jpg


TOY-SCL2-18230.jpg


GDS-8361.jpg


They won't ship until my preorders(late this month) come in, but they are now in stock. :embarrassed:

Sick Hakosuka. I want to get those Kyoshos eventually. They look way too baller. Speaking of Kyoshos...

Mercedes+SLR+McLaren+(2006+Kyosho+Minicar+Collection).jpg

2006 Mercedes-Benz Minicar Collection.

I'm disappointed with this one actually. The axles aren't level so the car's on a slant. I'm so bugged by it I'm actually going to fix it, because I didn't drop $13 for this level of quality.

But that aside, here's brand comparison:

He's alive! :eek:
What the hell.

Oh yes, very much so. I just haven't had time to lurk on forums as much as I used to. Plus I only have 30 GB of internet data to use per month.
That isn't to say I haven't quit collecting though.
In fact, I just eBay'd a Flying Customs Skyline with the street interior for $17.75 shipped. :D
