For those you curious about the Kenmeri, a little preview before I post it on Lamley this week:





The color is more green than teal, and looks really good. I will do some comparison pics with the Kyosho Beads version. This is really a great model. The BMW? I am happy it was done. I will save the rest of the comments for the post.

I so WANT this!
 
Received some Hot Wheels:

First, from their Virtual Vending Machine

Neo-Classics Series


Hot Bird


'68 Chevy El Camino


& trio of Super Treasure Hunts

'09 Corvette ZR1 + '07 Ford Mustang


'64 Chevy Nova Stationwagon





Nice wheels!
 
Thanks! 👍

Those two "Neo-Classics" I got from the machine, I wasn't happy with them, planned on selling them on TTP when I got it........ I don't know now. They are kinda neat, may end up keeping them. :crazy:
 
Thanks Magic. 👍 I very rarely go after Super Treasure Hunt cars, but Nova wagon, I think we were all sort of partial to. :D That Z06, too. Not as cool, but I've fancied that one for long time. Not bad for ten bucks a pop. 👍
 
Damn, can't argue for that price. Nice score. 👍

Also, you totally need one of these. :P Just look at those bikes!
I actually received a email for them. Worst website, ever. I don't remember how much, but I think the money was crazy, too.
 
Inspired by the 74 Celica added to Forza today, I've just gone on ebay to buy the red 70 racer. Will definitely make an in-game replica when it arrives.

It's on a long card, which is nice. Don't much like the short card. My Homer is an SC and it's not the same. Will jump on a long card one day.
 
Went to an antique store and got some cars at 10 for $2

A Playart Corvette which will hopefully be restored, and a Playart Challenger which will be used for parts for another car

A Superfast Porsche and a hammered 67 Camaro

This Long Shot is pretty sad. It looks to be in really nice shape, but the base is broken, and the whole back portion is gone, so I'll have to locate a new one somehow.

Utterly amazing Nissans. Love all of them; especially the Skyline! I am starting to empty my boxes (12 gallons each, there are four of them) today, so expect some more pictures of my collection soon!

I also ordered a BMW M3 GTR Race Car; hope to customize it partially to make it look like Razor's BMW!
 
Curious question: Do any of you shop on eBay through eBay Mobile?

I sold two lots recently and the guy in Spain says he is unable to make a payment through it. (I believe) he is asking for my paypal email to do a transaction off eBay, so I'm at a disadvantage if anything goes wrong. I am currently refusing that action and am suggesting he switch from mobile view to a regular classic webpage so see if that will work out. It also bothers me he has good buying rep, but awful selling rep.

By any chance did you find anything else that was cool? ;)

Have placed bids using their app, but unfortunately, I never have paid thru it. I always pay thru landline.
