1/64 Model Collectors Thread

If I knew how to swap wheels I would switch the rims of my xj220.

I would love it more if it had the rims on my gt500.

Listed the M2 chase cars if anyone wants to keep an eye on them:

Already had someone message me and ask if I would sell it to him for opening bid of $50. Told him one sold for $100 last night, so no.

Wow.... the nerve. If you want it for the opening bid, place your stupid bid. We all want to get our cars cheap, but man, that's just stupid.

P.S. I saw one sell on TTP, I think for the asking price of $85. 👍

Here's my first attempt at hot wheels customisation.

Repost from another thread: Here's an Itasha I got in the mail today the other day.

2009 Aoshima Itasha Minicar Collection - Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS

You see that sorry excuse of a ride height? I fixed it today. Pics pending. Other than that, the casting is pretty good. Rear lights look a bit too big....specifically the individual circular dimples in place of the non-existent red lamp decals. The wing is tight.

2009 Aoshima Itasha Minicar Collection - Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS

Headlights seem a bit too big. I notice the Impreza model they have also suffers the same problem.

The ride height is also a bit fudged. The metal body has little tab that space the front wheels from the wheel well, but not the back. That explains why they have a slouchy stance. Not to worry. I fixed this one too. She's sittin' slammed, and it looks really good. Pics also pending.



If there's one casting I know that doesn't have apparent scale issues, it's the C-West Lancer Evo.

 

[a6m5]

Anime & headlight lenses totally killed that otherwise fine Supra. So sorry.

Nice. 👍 You should post more in this thread: Hot Wheels and Matchbox Customizing Thread

I have better-looking versions of both... Plain body green RE Amemiya FD3S and Manabu Orido's Ridox Supra.


But I agree with you at the Evo. It looks better, but the rear GT spoiler is too small for scale.

Don't be! Itashas aren't my thing either. Neither is the Nanoha series for that matter. I'd have jumped on the silver Supra if the livery looked better. Silver body, black wheels. mm-hmm

 

[diabolicwyvern]

Anyone Interested? They aren't stellar condition, but could display for folks. You're welcome to message me.

[AOS-]

I've been talking about you. Disappearing for the longest time and all.




Also, why are bidders so dumb by continually raising the pot long before the auction's end? Every bidder should just put in their highest bid at the last minute instead. Seriously.

Noice. I have two of the yellow one, which cost me $1 and $2, respectively. 👍

Anyways, some finds from this weekend


The white Mustang will compliment my green one quite nicely.



Meyers Manx's, for the wheels.




And this rice box, also for the wheels.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I want that red charger.

 

[mustang fanatic]

Really cool model, indeed. 👍

Anyways, the sisters met each other.

 

[AOS-]

I'll take the Rice box's body if that's okay with you.

 

[mustang fanatic]

Sure. I don't need it.

 

[AOS-]

Do you have the green versions of that Dodge Viper RT/10? I've the WSP and Gold UH variations in my inventory.

 

[mustang fanatic]

All I have is the green WSP variation. Other than that, no.

Don't break the zamac one. Rare.

I don't think it's zamac. I think it's silver metallic.

 

[Spacegoat]

I can't get over how that Tomica Limited(non-vintage) Super Silhouette Skyline was destroyed in one of the scenes.

All the more reason why you need to make one. Imagine how much better one of your TLV Skyline Silhouettte's would look getting destroyed instead of that TL one. And that 280Z Fairlady in the same video is sweet. 👍

ORLY?

I have 6 disassembled. (crotch chop)

You want them?

no, they're worth something only if they're complete I have like 12 bodies of that car already, with about 12 more waiting to be ripped appart :/

Then don't tell others to keep them in tact, baka.

I don't think they're not worth a whole lot these days. You may be able to get away with listing it for $4, but very little pay that much for one.

Courtesy of the Lamley group. Q case cars. Want/need these three in particular.

Oh my gosh, dat Porsche!

Thankfully I'm able to resist most of them, but I looked in Kelvinator's blog post:

Nitro Doorslammer!

Clear Speeder? Needs a closer look!

Velocita? Needs a closer look! Transit? Maybe for a mod.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Transit van!

Nooo dude, all of them are golden cars, I was telling him to keep the zamac one intact.

Also, friggin rollcage zamac Hako, I can't even find a black one :/
