Looks like they brought back the Roll Patrol and renamed it back to its proper name.

Nou, the Roll Patrol had a modified front with square lamps. This casting hasn't been used since... early 90s I'd take a guess, in the color Changers line-up.
 
@Cano - does something look off with this car, or is it just me? Maybe it's the angle, or the trunk is too short?

This might be a must have:

There's this one too.

I need this car in my life. Are they on store shelves yet? What about prices?

Also, can anyone tell me if any sets from any brand would have a 1970 Chevelle SS in stock condition, or a 57 Bel-Air Coupe, as well as a 1958 Corvette? I need all of those in stock condition to complete my collection.

Also, storage space is becoming a problem...

Any cheap and easy solutions? Nowhere to move the books.

Not sure when they hit shelves, probably will be around $5-6.

Also, attach that photo as a thumbnail, it's rather large.

I keep forgetting that rule!
 
I've always liked the M2 Nova & that SS Camaro looks nice. 👍
Now come on, that was just mean.
No, that's funny(sort of).
But to be fair, Cano ain't trying to convince you to stop buying TLVs, Shinji. He is just making a comparison between quality. Nothing more.

👍 👍
I know, and at the end of the day, we are talking toy cars(but I'm right j/k).
I can see why you wanted Cano to look away, just saw what they are asking for those on ebay. :lol: :crazy: Great shade of Red though. Looks great. 👍
I got it for $63, and same seller has same listing again this week. Red is expensive. Japan Booster one went for $70-something. :crazy:
I cried a little inside...
Was it like this?



No? OK.
Not feeling that civic sir... As a huge fan of the EG model civic, that model is WAY off, i expected more from TLV..

yet i still want one/going to buy on.
:crazy: I absolutely hated the car when it first came out, then it totally grew on me(probably before you were born lol). Very rarely you see perfect casting, but I was actually pretty happy with this one. It looks very realistic to me(I just saw one few minutes ago, too). *shrug*
Heads up: Toys R Us stores are getting 2015 A cases with the Kombi super TH.
I just hit my TRU on the way home. Not a damn thing. I did see a Green Machine VW set, but it was just one van in the set, and I really wasn't feeling it.

During lunch, I did walk to Walmart & got one of these mystery models(not my pic):

Exotics_5_-_Acura_HSC_Concept.jpg

Acura HSC Concept, little darker in real life. Worst car ever.
 
Downgraded, but still a definite yes for me.
 
It wasn't going to have those wheels anyway. I collect that casting, so it's a must for me.
 
It instantly reminded me of that horrid 5-pack Honda Racer.

Speaking of Honda Racer.

I've 3 others. The blister is cracked, but seller sold all 4 for $1.75 because the cards were "warped". I'm not complaining.

Other boxes came in.

Got some bikes, zamacs, another 8 crate for another wonderful wheelswap, and stocked up on more WSPs, Minis and Kenmeris.

I think it miiiight be the angle that shows the rear quarter panel too tall/short... or the casting's rear quarter panel is too tall/short indeed. I'd have to see it in person. And I also want that red Camaro. New casting or new release?
 
Looks like that E36 got Matchboxed.

And since when did Walmart have 84 cents Hot Wheels? Thought it was 97 cents.
Rollback. Not sure if it's for all Walmarts.

Well, $63 is a lot better than the other listings I found yesterday. :crazy: Nice find for the price.
Damn it man, it's on the picture!

Oh, how I laughed. :lol:
 
Got two Kmart online cases today. AQB cases. I will put a report up on Lamley tomorrow. These had the mainline Wagons, unlike the cases at my local Kmart...
