1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[a6m5]

Yes Thunderbolt, but no it actually wasn't a Classics. I mistook it for the 2009 Cop Rods.

Ah, OK.

Cheers 👍 It's actually from a 'Barry Sheene' Yamaha race bike livery.

Ah. So old school, so cool. 👍

For those that are interested in their Tomica diorama stuff (hint hint @a6m5), looks like Japan Booster has the new 'Tomicarama Vintage 04b Car Shop Yokoyama/Bayside Motors'. Brief glimpse over on the Lamley blog.

May have to grab myself one of those 117 coupes.

AmiAmi had that on preorder for months, but I passed. Considering the popularity of those Tomicarama models, I'm sure they'll come up with something cooler in the near-future. Thanks for the heads up though. 👍 I'm sure we'll have a review of 117 soon from @Spacegoat. 👍

Got my first Zmac! It's a summit chevelle.

That's the only one I want.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Never saw a Zmac before besides the one I have now.

*Zamac.

It would go nicely with this beauty I just found at the 99 cent store...

Think I should keep the Zamac in it's package?

 

[Cano]

@Cano did you ever get the Auto World Cadillacs you wanted?

Cano has about 5 minutes to answer me or I'm leaving his caddys behind. He'll have to hope they are still there next weekend.

Aw, sorry dude wasn't at the computer when you posted that. I have a black one of those already, and it's enough with that one, but still thanks a lot for remembering. Also lucky sod with the $TH Chevelle.

1970 Wide body Chevelle SS drag car.

I'm sure we'll have a review of 117 soon from @Spacegoat. 👍

If by "review", you mean a few very average pictures then, of course. 👍 Looking forward to getting my hands on the 117 coupe with radio livery, god that thing looks so good. Shouldn't have to wait long either, that and the Alto were shipped out yesterday.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Zamac and cool classics 77 firebird.

Yeah it's nice when you go somewhere to buy paper towels and hand soap and just randomly find a super pegged right in front of the over stuffed pegs.

I see no zamacs in stores, ever. I think it's like US Walmart Exclusive or something.

 

[Johnny1996]

I know that they're Walmart Exclusives, but I'm not sure about nations. I found tons last year, none for '14 so far.

I asked Japan Booster to list the Tomicaramas, and I have one coming. I think a few collectors around here would be interested in them. Can't wait to get it.

They go for about $30 on eBay, unless you got something I need.

What is on your list?

 

[CodeRedR51]

What is on your list?

• Datsun 620 w/PR5
• Skyline 2000GT-R Hot Ones interior vary
• Bluebird Wagon $uper (worth a shot, $30 would go a long way towards a purchase though)
• F&F Skyline R34 w/metal wing
• Mercury Cougar w/OH5
• Fiat 500 10sp
• '87 Toyota Pickup tan w/black wheel vary
• Circle Trucker red w/OH5

That's just a few I think.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Still debating weather or not to open this.

 

[Daniel008]

Kyosho - MASERATI Tipo 61
Only 22 were made for the real car

 

[a6m5]

That is hella tight. 👍

Been meaning to open these:



Hot Wheels Super Treasure Hunt Toyota Tundra




Modern Classic '80 El Camino






Greenlight 1965 Ford Galaxie

I don't care. You can send it to me carded or loose.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Ha, that's definately a no.

 

[a6m5]

Ha, that's definately a no.

I don't get it. Carded part, or loose?

a6-san, here's the Circuit Wolf 1:64 Kyosho set:

I FINALLY scored the Circuit Wolf Europa! Last time it came up on eBay was months ago, I think it went for something like $60 or more. I was willing to go $50 this time, but the sniping job came thru at $23.50. So happy.

Greenlight 1965 Ford Galaxie Greenlight cars seems to be quite well made.

Omae...

I hate you now.

They did knock that one out of the park. This casting IMO is right up there with the TLVs.

I've been checking for that one on eBay once a week. I SO want that Tomica Europa you brought up the other day, but this Kyosho has been one of my biggest target EVER!

Well, the Circuit Wolf Tomica Boxset rarely pops up in the store, and they cost from 50 to 60 USD. I've seen it quite a few times, and I don't know if another one will be available as of this posting.


EDIT: And what I bought is a Lancia Stratos...

Does ebay have some up?

Yeah, I remember you mentioning that Europa was absent in the set. I'd love to have the Tomica, but I doubt I'll ever see that one. I'm perfectly happy with the Kyosho. Along with that Yoroshiku Mechadoc Toyota Celica XX(Supra), they really covered my two favorite manga cars. <<<this again

Does ebay have some up?

There are plenty. I'm just waiting for the right deal to come up. Best lesson I learned from the HW-Yoda(@Cano).

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Think I'm gonna open mine.

Most looking forward to the 117 Coupes and the Transporter. Did you see what the first edition of the transporter went for tonight on ebay? Ouch...

 

[a6m5]

I just don't get the fascination with the Transporter, but damn, it is popular. What was the winning bid for the first one, @jtl46 ?

Didn't expect to see that. And yes there is a lot of curiosity about it. It looks good, but I also want to see how sturdy that trailer is, and how it works. Plus, at least one will look good in the collection. Maybe not two or three, but one.

Love the transporter and the HINO KB324 truck.
