1/64 Model Collectors Thread

I finally got around to taking some pics of the Majorette Renault Megane that I picked up last week.

$53 seems completely insane. That Jeep looks killer by the way. 👍

I want this one too, but not keen on paying $15-20 for it just yet.

I have that one. I think I also have it in silver, also with mud. Some of the last Johnny Lightnings I was able to buy in stores before they went under. Is yours JL or ERTL? I think ERTL took over some JL productions.

I'm growing more fond of SUVs with big mud tires with a spare part/accessory on top. That Cherokee makes me go daaaaang.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I'd like to have all of them that have those specific wheels, there are a couple done with the mud that had plastic tires. I'll pass on those.

I think I still like the orange with white-walls more.

These aren't mine by the way.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I looked around for those to get the one Cano wants, but absolutely zero stores in my area carry the transporters.

Other than the Dodge delivery I picked up for Cano, the only other thing I bought was this:

@AOS- I really like the green truck on the top-right. Here's the Elite Transport I've wanted for long time:

Have not seen it in a long time.

No Scion, but if you guys are interested in these, jackpot.

A Stepside and an xB. That's double-dipping for you. Best of luck finding that. 👍

I was told some dude found some many cities away from me for about $18? I might be able to find some if I go to the specialty toy store, but will have to expect to be paying $20.

Definitely do not want. Especially when that kind of money can go towards other pretty things in life.

You know that Transporter was looking really slick, until I saw what was on the back of it. Sorry a6, still not a fan. Hope you find one eventually though. 👍

 

[a6m5]

Thanks guys. Now that John hooked me up with the TLV CR-X, I may start looking for this one!

Oh wowow.

6 hours left on the teal Speed Machines Ford GT. Bid's so low too!
21 hours left on the black Speed Machines Ford GT. Only one bidder still!
Red 333SP Speed Machines is still only sitting at $1!
Assorted 6 Speed Machines sitting at $20 still.

Perfect listings for you US-based guys. They charge 3 arms and a neck for shipping.

"no eBay invoices to pay"... That's a first.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I need the GT-R's. Added "Nissan" to your search terms and only 2 popped up. Not going to commit right now, but will watch and see where they end up.

EDIT 5 hours later: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Matchbox-201...0799688?pt=Spielzeugautos&hash=item46294fb2c8

$50 Matchbox 2014 Convention BMW 1M Coupe. Free Shipping from Germany.

That's fine and dandy but I won the auction.

 

[Spacegoat]

Again, I'm sorry.

 

[a6m5]

Again, I'm sorry.

I was just kidding bro. Besides, every time I post an xB/bB, I realize I'm pretty much asking for it.

I know. I'm just letting you know of a new place to find cars other than eBay. You'd be surprised how many low-priced items you can find there.

Again, I'm sorry.

What are you? Canadian?

 

[Johnny1996]

Two Fords for me today, with the F-150 going toward a custom project.

 

[Spacegoat]

Ah, don't worry about, you know how I like to tease. And I did honestly mean what I said about the transporter, real slick. If I could find one down here I'd happily keep the Transporter for myself and send you the xB.

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got my first cereal car.
Count chocula and the marvel blazer. The blazer was from Target.

 

[a6m5]

Will this ever end!?

Got my first cereal car.

First time you seen those, right? I hope I start seeing them in my town.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Cereal cars, yes. I've not seen the blazer before too.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Checked out a new store that opened up at the mall. Called "Five Below." No idea if it's in any other parts of the country, but I found just Matchbox cars. As well as 1/43 scale Maisto/Bburago models.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anyone feel like getting a good laugh in?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I've seen five belows but didn't know they carried cars. Aren't those Zs all signed by that guy?

 

[CodeRedR51]

I've seen five belows but didn't know they carried cars. Aren't those Zs all signed by that guy?

Only 46 of them.

 

[AOS-]

I am disappoint.
I had the impression someone did a horible signature forgery and 20 fools got together to bid on that.
That ish would've been hilarious.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I'm just waiting for them to announce the release of the regular ones so I can get a membership and dive in when they go on sale. I figure if I do that, I'll pay less than buying one on eBay afterwords.

 

[AOS-]

Yeah, no sense in getting into a fight with the hyped crowd to get early stuff. It's a poor use of money most of the time.
