Maybe in 2 weeks from now, depending on how quickly you can form a network here.

:P

Hehe, you're right, I need to graduate from "noob collector" to whatever the other levels are. :lol:

Also, @Gotbeefboy564, nice cars. I dunno what the one on the right is, but I'd take it that the one on the left is a Ford GT90, right?

I could be mistaken but I think the one on the left is http://hotwheels.wikia.com/wiki/40_Somethin'

Yes GT90, not on the 40Something, it's a "Camaro Wind" :crazy:

EDIT: Now that you people made me look for it, it seems I'm missing just one variation of this casting. Interesting :lol:
 
My Mustangs finally sold this morning. Relisted a few others again. Not dropping the price on them, so it looks like I'll be hanging on to them for a while.
 
I know one can find almost anything if a online search is done.

Pretty much the truth. In fact if you are into collecting Holy Toast you may even find a slice with Jesus' face on it.
Cars? Plenty.
Most of my entire collection is online; I just haven't bought them yet. :D

As for the photo tips, I'll be thankful if you can give me some pointers. But I'd say that is more fitting that we do so in a private conversation. You know, so that we don't clutter the thread with it.

Try the Photography Forum - it's a place that bustles with experts, expert advice, and super pictures. The 'Diorama' thread tailors specifically to Diecast Photography, and you'll find some great tips from Andy, AMG, and many others who have been into it for many years.

Hey! Don't I know you from somewhere? :lol:

Huzzah, sir, huzzah. :lol: Those are my words too.

Huh, that so? Perhaps I need to pay those forums a visit then. Thanks for the tip. :)👍

Knowing me? Sir, surely you jest about that, right?

And don't call me Shirley, or else I'll mess you up. :lol:
 
Maybe I'm confusing you with someone who does great reviews in the COTW thread. ;)

Uh . . . about the Miura. Pics or no go.

:mischievous:

Ooh, you're daring me!? :mischievous: Fine. By Treize Khushrenada's word you shall see it!

Also, Shinj... ahem, Mr. @a6m5, since you wanted to see it, you should take a look at this here:

Photo warning: Great photographer I am not, so you'll have to take my poor pictures instead until I learn the tricks of the trade. Without further ado, here it is:

Lamborghini Miura P400 SV by Minichamps, part of the "La collezione di Sant'Agata" set

And for good measure, here's the other (cheaper) Miura I own, bought at the Autoclassico car show here in Portugal:

Wow! one of my local supermarkets finally has some new HW's. Finally have the mainline BB 510 wagon :D (nothing else decent though).
 
Cue another new VHTF Retro Entertainment car. :bowdown:

Just another reason why I've never put effort in finding Ectos.

Can't find 'em, and if I did want them, I'd probably be putting down a good amount of money for it.

Nah. I'll stick to paying good money for the "trash" supercars I've been on a roll with. :P Speaking of "trash" supercars....







2014 Lambo Minicar Collection 5






BTW, has anyone been clicking these pics for full size? If not, I can save myself time by excluding URL tags.

Didn't say anything in regards to appreciating or being a fan of Ghostbusters.... unsure what conclusion you're jumping to, but let me revise that bit.



"I'd rather not put down that much money on Hot Wheels if at all possible. Instead I'd rather put that amount of money on something else."

That sound better for you?
