That is awesome Cano.
 
And to all the people excited for the Escort... did you really didn't expect it, with all the F&F trash we've seen from Hot Wheels lately? All those cars are a given sooner than later. :/
I'm actually a bit gutted and at the same time happy it's coming... Only wish i'd finished my custom sooner. :grumpy:

Awesome! Ritmo Cano.
 
And now, all shiny... but looking almost the same :lol:
I'm still entertained by the before & after stuff. Keep up the good work! 👍
 







Toyota Sports 800
DyDo Mini Car Kit no.10



Had a little fun before completing the assembly:

If the wells were large enough, I just might've kept the Watans!

Dude your custom thing is so amazing it's time-proof. Your car and HW's car won't ever look the same. Ever.

Were the wheels not able to move when it was that close?
 
@AOS- Frigging awesome & fun, but for the love of god, who made it!?
 
I couldn't close it up as the wheels didn't even fit in the wells :lol:

I did like the lifted look though. Adds a bunch of cuteness to it.


@a6m5, It's Dydo. Them tiny ol die doh's. Tiny, but actually to scale. I missed out on the Datsun 240 Safari Rally (the one I wanted the most of all) but I'll get it eventually. A group photo will be due then.

Thanks man! i appreciate the kind words,👍 but with such an iconic car (in Europe anyway), i have a feeling they're going to nail it. It would be a damn shame if they don't.

I sure hope they nail it, but I higly doubt it.

And even if they do, it's never gon a match something entirely scratch-built.
 
So k day in February will have the c case or d case?
 
I'll be able to go to that one since my shift starts at 4:00pm.
 







2010 Nissan Skyline GT-R Group A Collection
Saurus Champ GT-R Nismo



So I could either be grabbing the race car livery R32s from the 2010 set,
or I could be all OG about it and find only Beads, because I sure as heck
do not want both Beads and this Group A Set's Calsonic Skyline.

May just have to make a bunch of exceptions.

And to all the people excited for the Escort... did you really didn't expect it, with all the F&F trash we've seen from Hot Wheels lately?

I haven't paid any attention to the F&F stuff at all. So it came as a very pleasant surprise to me. And the Fiat Ritmo is a rad by the way. Keep the good stuff coming. 👍
 
Wow, that Rabbit. :drool: I observe French Tomica rims.
 
Well C case is already out, D is coming soon, so I would expect something after that.
What day in February is k day or is there a site that shows a calendar of all the k days?
 
So excited for the Simpsons car, not much else caught my attention though I only skimmed through.
 
Great list of real cars for me to collect. Good list for 2015.
 
Sir, yessir!

Not from the display, but take your pick...

All of them made-in-France Majorettes from thee 70s. Blister pulls by yours truly.
More pics of the Matra-Simca Bagheera please. I used to have one of those. :)

The Rabbit/Golf looks killer in that shade of blue. Those Volvo wagon's too. :drool:👍

Now that I think about it, the blue Golf is indeed on the display, so you guys will be seeing more of it in the future. Might actually be the car I next clean up, like?

As for the Volvo wagons, when I bought the lot where these came in (which was a cool story because I didn't bought them online, I bought them in a flea market over here, more than 30 still-carded french Majorettes, many of them repeats, some of them with trashed blisters, which are the ones you see here) I saw the Volvos and tought "yeup, more to sell", but turned out to be a wheel variartion, the one with three spokes was the only one in the lot, there were like 4 of the others. I sold each for like $20.

More pics of the Matra-Simca Bagheera please. I used to have one of those. :)

Got them. In fact, there is a Bagheera in the display also but it isn't this one, the one in there is blue, so both the Golf and Bagheera will be retired and cleaned next 👍

Thanks all for the comments gentlemen 👍
 
Heh, I can sort of dig a black Impala. 👍 But a Chevy Cruze? Not so much, that's the wrong kind of badassery. :lol:
I only picked it up (the Cruze) because it's a black bandit. I agree, terribly dull car in real life.

One of my previous neighbours had a black Holden Cruze hahaha
