Not to sound like a jerk.. kinda happy he didn't find one.

Kinda the same, I mean that just isn't cricket.

Did you use Photoshop's Highlight/Shadows tool? If it is, it looks like you didn't change the radius.

I am getting lazy these days... I am only using my mobile to take all these shots and via some photo enhance apps.

So just for laughs... Obviously the Tomb Up in yellow is a total best seller. Yes that is an entire peg, other than one of freshly stocked hot wheels.. all Tomb Ups.. it's diggin it's own grave.

In other news!
More New things. Not new case, but new for me.

Matchbox Aston Martin DBS Volante. Nice car. One of very few convertibles I like. Casting is pretty good, but not my favorite. Looks too skinny to me.

Studebaker Champ, and Ford Transit connect. I love the Stude, it's one of my all time favorites, but I only have 2. This and the old yellow. I think the yellow was Better. More details. For example. Check the tailgate.

The transit is one that to me is strange that people like so much. I like this version considerably better than the blue hot wheels racing version, but still don't understand the hype over it.

Srt viper GT, Corvette C.7R, M3 GTR
The upturned chins still drives me nuts, but its ok. I'm a sucker for race cars. The viper looks better in black, and the Corvette couldn't be any other color. The M3, so far, this is my favorite color, but the white looked great too.

Masserata MXR. BMW M4. Porsche 911 GT3 RS. The MXR and M4 are both cars iv passed and I should have bought sooner. The M4 especially. I love old BMWs but this is gorgeous to me. Love the carbon effect on the roof too. You have to look at it to see it.

The Porsche I don't have much to say about. It's a Porsche so I had to get it. I love all of the 911s so far.

That Zamac though.

Matchbox 93 Mustang police, and Skyjacker Bronco. The mustange is whatever to me. I grabbed it since I don't have a mustang of that gen. The bronco on the other hand I love. Now having both the hot wheels and matchbox Broncos, the matchbox is way way Better.

I have a love hate with the panamera. It's so ugly. Not just the model, the real thing too. But it sounds so good. and it moves amazing for its size. I think I like the red better, but I haven't seen one in awhile.

Bought both Estoque color, because why not. It's a decent car. About the most understated thing Lamborghini has made recently. But one problem. With my silver one.

What are those giant flipping holes in the hood! It came out of the package like that. The only thing I can figure is that maybe it got stapled somehow. Now though... It's probably gonna be stripped down and fixed, then painted some ridiculous color.

You know what, I was looking forward to that Transit Connect and having gone through 2 H case dump bins today, neither of them had any.

New consigned items:

 

[CodeRedR51]

I'm currently torturing myself by going through eBay and jotting down cars I would like to purchase sometime in the future. Quite possibly the most distant future.


Edit: I really wish eBay sellers would NOT use manufacture photos. Sometimes the car has changed and it's not representative of the actual product. People will buy the item expecting one thing and receiving another. I already got burned on a GT500 Greenlight because of this problem, and found another while looking at TLV stuff. The manufacture photo for the black Subaru Legacy RS shows it with gunmetal wheels and it in fact actually comes with silver wheels. Deal breaker for me.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Really liking this Challenger

 

[AOS-]

That Challenger brings me all the way back to 2011/2012 mainlines. You guys getting the same vibes?

It does indeed. I hope it's a now and then set car. That would be killer. Speaking off that.

Got the now to my then 69 Camaro. Wish these were hardtops. But that's ok. Still nice.

Also this:

Spectacular!





Oh... And this.. my luck holds strong...

No, shut up, it's beautiful! I can't believe I was lucky enough to find it. Actually 2 of it, but I left one for some other lucky guy. No it's not the best color, but it's wonderful to have an all metal datsun 510. The slot wheels fit so well, and the tampos are great, a very sedate clean look. Now for the heritage series...

Those are so cool. What brand are they? Those wheels are interesting too. Are they rubber?

I randomly decided that I have to get a Bel Air of some sort one day. I have the James Bond Johnny Lightning one which is great, but I just needed to have another.
Of course you never just buy one thing, so it ended up being a whole box from 'murica which arrived today. All Greenlights which aren't sold here and one Hot Wheels from a series also not sold here.

Aforementioned Bel Air.

And honestly the rest were just random stuff I liked. I had a limit of 22€ since you have to pay import tax here if you receive a package over that value from outside the EU.

The Bel Air was the culprit of this whole ordeal, but I was very pleasantly surprised by this last car.

This thing is gorgeous and big. Take note Mattel, this is how you do Daytona properly. My favorite of the bunch. I believe it was also the most expensive.


This got me thinking how nice 50's american cars were, so I took a bit of a group photo.

Mmm, dat Daytona and Camaro convertible... Talk about a pair of good-looking cars, great purchases. Greenlight does do some really nice cars, I might buy one, one day. If I ever come across a good one, that is.

I'm really feeling that mustang, and I'm not even a big fan of mustangs. Also the Daytona is gorgeous. They make a super bird too?

I firmly belive that cars of the 30's and 50's have the most style of all car generations. And that collection would look just right parked in front of the local diner.

Those are Matchbox Lesney made in England. Vintage stuff. They comes in plastic or metal wheels.

Augh that Merc! Stop having such awesome stuff! Lol.

The wall, she has grown.





just realize there are barely any hotwheels, and the ones that are all modified.. save for the Scudderia, P4, hakosuka tokyo salon race car, and 89' porshe 911 turbo RSR. the rest consist mainly of tomica, johny lightning limited,Autoworld and Greenlight.

for my fav mainline HW castings i have another wall.

Curse you and your '59 Chevy Delivery $TH.

Curse you and your '59 Chevy Delivery $TH.

You mean my two Chevy Deliveries? It's not a $uper though. To date the only $uper I've found is the Plymouth Fury also in that pic.

I still say curse you, cause the Delivery is cool period, Sth or not. I want!

I must be on an exotics kick. 9 cars yesterday. All exotics. Well, an exotics 5 pack, and 4 other singles.

Lamborghini Aventador (green) and Reventon. The Aventador is awesome, I love it, but not the best in the pack. I usually like little Lamborghinis better, but the Aventador is the exception. The Reventon is nice, but the paint quality of the white on it is terrible. Weird little air bubble pockets on the sides and the underside of the overhangs and such are only speckled with paint. Ah well.

Aston Martin One -77 and V8 Vantage.
My usual rule for Aston's is no deco at all (except race cars) but these 2 I'll let slide. They both look good to me, especially the Vantage. Possibly my favorite of the pack. And possibly my only purple car.

Porsche 918 Spider and 934 RSR Turbo.
918. Love it. Not much else to say. It's just sexy. The 934 i bought only so I could have all 3 colors. Looks good in blue, black is still my favorite. I noticed on the blue the spoiler lip is black, which it wasn't on the others.

Acura NSX Concept, 2 versions.
I like them both, but for different reasons. The silver and blue color is exquisite, but the yellow shows the body details bettter. Great casting.

2014 Corvette Convertible.
This one is weird to me, if only because I love the hardtop, but am never usually a fan of convertibles. I have 5 in my entire collection. Occasionally I'll find amazing ones. Not always. This one however, is amazing.

These last 2 pictures were just me fooling around and I really liked how they came out.

Still cannot get over how pretty the Hurican is...

Those Bentley's are sweet @RCKakashi14 👍

I wish manufacturers would put as much effort into 1:43 these days as they seem to be doing with 1:64. It's like the most focused on scales seem to be dropping with every year from 1:18 downward over the last 2 decades!
