This just in Walmart and other retailers ban the sell of Tesla in their stores. :lol:

Why? Cause it ruins the current model car sales plans? Lol.

Edit: that was fast.. apparently along with H case hot wheels, j cases are showing up too...not as much good stuff but! Both the escort and zamac ef civic are in this one

If the shipping price is good, there is a good chance of bulk HW shopping happening.

Also, the 2-month long trip for the Jauce order is over. I have a LOT of CM's to sell off. Interests?

It is possible that maybe over the weekend (big meet, gonna sell stuff there) I'll finally be able to clear my debt with Ahmed. After that, I'm all ears.
 
That's good to hear. Not to be a jerk though, but I'd like to make this a first-come-first serve thing. I'm looking to begin listing on eBay in May.

Perhaps a list will actually help gauge interest.

Can't check at the moment, but off the top of my head I have a LOT of Citroen C4 and Xsara, Lancia Stratos and Deltas... uh and some Kyoshos!

While I'm not sure what shipping would be like, this is relevant to my interests.
 
Was clearing out my wardrobe and found these, thought they might be worth a picture:

Miura is a Yatming, anything special about that @Cano?

And this is just my thrift store haul:

Apologies for poor photos. Couldn't be bothered setting up a proper lighting setup, and the DSLR's batteries are dead.
 
That poor, poor Miura.. oh how the mighty have fallen.. and lost doors.

What are those weird wide flat cars in the second picture? Looks like they had a cool selection of cars.


Oh, just gonna leave this here...

Escort, Chevelle, McLaren, and Mustang. Soft spot for the Surf Crate, so probably that too. And possibly the Corvette. Despite the pinched nose. It's still a racing corvette. 8 Crate is an ok super, wouldn't say no. Really like the F150 in red. And despite the mad plastic and fantasy cast, the new color of the Mig Rig is gorgeous. Might buy one for that alone.

Just noticed the Surf Crate has skinnies in the front now. Used to have full size wheels. I had like 5 of it when I was a kid

New wheels. They debuted last year in the blue/orange COPO Camaro. Can't wait to see them on a '55 Gasser.

You mean the Camaro I passed up like 30 times cause I'm not a fan of the new Camaro? Lol. They would look good on a gasser, and I'll bet they'll possibly show up on future funny cars and such
 
I just find this interesting/funny at the same time reading it at this moment.

Back to the Future.











I'm unsure if I have all of them yet*, but I can't imagine myself looking for more any time soon.

But nevertheless "Woo!" for finding the red one!

*edit: I'm missing 2 more, one of which is yet another white/green/red release.

Matchbox Superkings (1/32 scale). The wheels they use on those are the indication, though they did use other wheels on the Superkings at one point, and they were hard to spot the difference between them and their smaller siblings.
