What?!?!?! :confused: Are you saying there aren't going to be anymore treasure hunts?:nervous:

There will still be treasure hunts, but they will now be mixed in with the mainline cars kind of like how they did the super treasure hunts this year. No more green stripes.

What's your eBay name? I'll check it out.

Finally home from my cousin's wedding in Pennsylvania. Stopped by NH and this is what I bought with no tax. :D Only went to their K-Mart though...
IMG_0253.jpg

Already had these but seconds would be even better! :D

The K-Mart had the special "silver" Pixar cars, but no Celine Dephare or any other cars. They did have Off-Road racing! None of my stores sell Hot Wheels Racing items in Maine.

Pikes Peak Celica
And missed out on these when they first came out, so jumped at the chance at this K-Mart to pick up these boulevards.

Apologies for the quality, took this in the car out of boredom. :lol:
 
No idea really. Going to start low and see what they bid up to. I know a few of them can bring quite a bit, including the AE86.

Haha, dude, I was asking how much to see if I could directly buy them off you. I'll look fer them on E-Bay now -_-

Also, cool errors everyone.
 
Just put 8 listings on eBay. :lol: Good thing it was free. :)

That's the spirit! :D Just sold an error on the bay a couple of days ago. Was going to put another one up tonight, but I had to save one of my cats from being stuck in between two buildings. Lol.
 
How much was it? I like it. I like the RV from your set as well. 👍 That Firebird from the set, I have the blue & gold. Very cool.

It was $4.49, so wasn't too bad I guess. Don't know the prices on the Hot Wheels Racing product line, aren't they normally around $5? :confused:

I remember you were the one who talked about wanting the VIP Range Rover Sport. Definitely worth getting this pack for one if you can't find the single anywhere. Or...not that I have two, I could trade. :P

Going to start hoarding up Holden Utes! :lol: So far I've got red, purple, green, and the rescue one... Just need to find blue and orange now. :D

Okey i feel like an idiot for asking this, but can you show me a picture of what your talking about so i can know what to look for.:)

Whats that brown car in the Hot Wheels Boulavard series you have?

Nope, they're not out yet. If you're talking about the $uper TH from this year, would be a moot point for me to post a pic cause they won't look the same.

Ah, OK. Little high, but I might still get it. Thanks. 👍

Too many cars I don't need in that pack, so I wouldn't get it. I was wanting Rover, but I ended up getting a throwback Rover from the toypeddler(or maybe eBay, I forget), an old Hot Wheel brand one. I'll keep that in mind though, for potential future trade. 👍

If it's this one, it's the '63 Chrysler Turbine. The other one, I have no idea. :D
 
Which models did you get?:

I got both the Capsule collection lots that were posted on here a couple of pages back. Here are the pics that were on ebay. These arent my pics and the cars have not arrived yet, they have just been posted.

Money. In the bank! 👍 I look forward to the pics!

Edit: Anybody know if their "Capsule" series are plastic, or metal body? Regardless, they got some cool cars!

I'd say it is. But considering the history behind the car, I really wanted to get it. :D

There seriously needs to be a diecast of the Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak car. Honestly, a car I'll never forget from GT2.

It's alright, there's always time for a future trade.

Those were both of the auctions I brought up, how much did the 2nd lot cost? (Tomicas that still had their boxes) Jelly over that Legacy. Someone owes me for bringing up interesting auctions. :P
 
Tomica capsule cars are plastic. I had a couple and wish they still sell them... I had a racing SA22 and a detomaso pantera. I think i also had a mark II police car, rx8, and a pajaro

How many people have managed to get the treasure hunts before?:sly:

It's a hit and miss for me sometime when it comes to THs. I have some of the, bit my best pick recently is the TH 2011 Datsun 240Z :D! Man, I love that car.

I been waiting on Hot Wheels or anyone to make the Escudo Pikes Peak since GT2! I hope that they create the car soon. Please HW, make the PP Escudo and the X1!! :D

By the way, I like some of your cars that you got, espically the 1:18 240Z from the scale model thread.

Went out to my local Smiths, guess what? They finally got some 2012 cars in stock :D! But no luck on the SRT Viper, red STi, Ferarri 599XX and the white SA22C though, but I found some goodies though. Here's what I brought:

Two Chevy Camaro ZL1 (the special Kroger edition one in yellow.) :D

Two Ferarri 458 Italia Spyder :D

Two Lambo Gallado SuperLeggra LP-570

Lancer Evolution X GSR (in purple)

Two Nissan 350Zs :D

Chevy COPO Camaro (in green) :D

Dodge Charger RT 440 '70 (in sublime) :D

BMW 2002ti (in white)

Ford Mustang Laguna Seca 302 (in sky blue) :D

Toyota Tundra :D

I'll probably go back tomorrow and see what they have up in stock for the morning when I take my jog around, just gotta get up early in the morning so I can beat this desert heat.

I got the 2nd boxed lot of Tomicas for $21.50US and the loose cars I got for $6.50US and yes Spacegoat that is a Legacy Wagon:D . Would you be willing to ship your ebay lots down under R1600?

If shipping was paid for. And they would probably go FedEx, not USPS.

Oh my bad, frankly it was the other one i was asking about, i thought the turbine was orange:lol: Try looking on the bottom of the vehicle or the right side of the case and it should tell. Awesome vehicles! :cheers:👍

Yea i agree, for six years i have wanted them to make a Hot Wheels car of it, but they haven't! Frankly im thinking about making a concept drawing of what it may look like as a Hot Wheels car sometime, maybe i could submit it and they will do it!:sly:

I've got one, a 'regular' Treasure Hunt pink '58 Impala. It was from the pegs too. :)
Yea i own that one to, truly an awesome car:cheers: I got so many treasure hunts!

Wish i had that car myself:indiff: I have alot of good ones from 2007-2012. I have a few supers, most of them i found with pure luck:sly: I have pictures of all mine on my profile.:)
I been waiting on Hot Wheels or anyone to make the Escudo Pikes Peak since GT2! I hope that they create the car soon. Please HW, make the PP Escudo and the X1!! :D
Yep i agree:cheers; I believe the X1 will be more likely to be done though.
 
Cano, I found a new Toys R Us location in my place, and found a Majorette Megane Trophy, except they were $3.59 so I didn't get one for you.

I did however find the BP Focus which I bought. :)
 
Of all the stops I made in California, including a handful of Toys R Us stores, only one had Majorette cars and there was just a single car hanging from the pegs. We don't get them around here at all.
 
I can buy the cars for you, but $3.59 is just asking for a bit much if you ask me.

RRRGHHH 3.60 is quite expensive indeed. AGH what do I do?

Any idea how much it would be to ship it over to Mexico AND to Texas? An estimate at least.
 
Otaku-san & Anton, thanks for the tip on the Capsule cars & the Turbine. :)👍

I'd say it is. But considering the history behind the car, I really wanted to get it. :D
I didn't know that it was a real life car. :ouch: I couldn't agree more on the Escudo rally car. 👍
Man, if I only had the $$$ for the Speed Machines......... :drool:👍
I got a real low bid on that right now. I also got low bid on the Wheldon car. Not really looking to score them, but every bid equals more $$$ for R1600, so.... :D ***Actually, they've already bumped me up to $50, which was my max bid. It looks like it's gonna go much higher! 👍
Agreed. That's some great stuff there Ben, 240Z, Fairlady Z and is that a Legacy wagon? :eek:👍
That 2000GT's sooooo curvy. :embarrassed: And don't get mad, but Toyota Bb/Scion xB's one of my favorite compact!!!!(1st gen)
Oh my bad, frankly it was the other one i was asking about
No sweat! Medigo called it the "Amphicar", so I supposed that's what that one is called. 👍

A picture I took of A Porsche iv had since I was like 3 or 4.
"For Sale" sign is a nice touch. I wish it was on the windshield though. :D
