Hopefully my store or surrounding Walmarts get J case dump bins soon but I won't be buying this many of a single car. This is too much

Sooo firstly. That guy is a scumbag. "i took all of them hahaha" what a jackass. Seriously. Makes real honest collectors look bad. Even his voice is scummy.

Secondly. Saw these today, and definitely want them.

Mastio Mercedes CLK GTR
Normally I pass up this brand, but I really liked this one.

These were 2 brands, but secretly all owned under Shelby Collectables. The castings are nice. These are more like basics than the others I bought. The wheels are atrocious, but they're held to gather with screws, so probably gonna swap em. Oh, the blue gt40, no screw, and cracked window, but it was the only one. Found em at a dollar store, for, ironically, 50 cents each
 
Not many more of these left to post:






#nomorekyoshos ferrari 550 maranello 2009 ferrari collection 6

 
Found the Escort..er I mean j case this morning. Pretty sure somebody already hit it though. No custom mustang, no escort, no Harley fat boy, and all the 8 crates were stacked to one side. And no regular or super t-hunts.
Got the Red chevelle, the challenger concept, my first actual variation that I knew about, Loopster, with riders hands down. Which appears to be less common. And a 4th I can't remember off the top of my head.
Pictures later. Oh no zamacs either
 
Had no truck today so after work I went to another Walmart and they got a J case dump bin, of course the good ones were gone but I got theseimage.jpg
No regular TH, super and Zamacs.
 
New j case. Went back after work to fully check the bin out, as before a gave only a cursory look over. Got some good stuff. But some things were missing completely. Escort. Mustang. Suprising number of chevelles still. No Morris Mini. No zamac. No sth. One regular. Left it behind. But i still got a lot. And the next case, k case I think. Is packed with stuff I want, and the escort carries over.

So new.

Grey Ducati- I really like this one, and I hope they do more sports bikes. Only been out since last year, and I'm only missing a red one. Only found one in the entire triple dump bin. I prefer the grey.

Chevelle and Copo Camaro -
Lovely recolors both. Not sure which color chevelle I like better, but the copo camaro is, in my opinion, way better in green. And it's not a green I expected. It's actually extremely bright and shiny.

IMAG0649_1_zpse7d14a38.jpg~320x480


Challenger concept and Lamborghini uras -
Challenger is nice, love the color and design, but I'm not sure I like it as Much as later challengers. The most obvious is the chin there is plastic, and it looks ridiculous to me. The uras in white. First red. now this. Betcha third color is silver. Silver. Or does that already exist. I actually really like the uras. It's the first super car manufacturers suv i felt still showed what they're about , and didn't look like a regular car thrown into a taffy puller. (lookin at you Porsche cayenne)

IMAG0648_1_zpsd990defd.jpg~320x480


Elcamino and Ranchero-
Third elcamino. All the ed pinks garage ones. Zamac is still the best. But I like this one a lot. It's not a color I expected and it looks good. The ranchro I belive I may actually have this color, but I'm not sure where I got it if I do. I can't check, cause I'm moving and my cars are packed.

IMAG0647_zps8e8f827b.jpg~320x480


8 Crate (reg) and surf crate -
The 8 Crate is actually surprisingly good looking in this color. The Windows are purple which isn't great, but it looks good overall. Wouldn't mind the super. The surf crate I have a soft spot for as it was my favorite as a kid. Had literally like 9 of them. Still love it.

IMAG0646_1_zps84ad602c.jpg~320x480


Honda racer -
I don't know much about this. I know it's real. And it looks totally unique. I think the design is great, and its a car I'll definitely have to look up.


Car of the case (so far)
And it's suprising even to me

IMAG0643_1_zps984ba9e3.jpg~320x480


The loopster!!.
What?!
But it's not even real!
Oh who cares, I love the idea. It's a simple cool concept and I really like it. I bought 3, one of the variation. Arms up and arms down. I found only one arms up, so I don't know if it's more rare or only one snuck into this case. 2 arms down. The whole reason I bought 3 was to hook em together and its such a neat thing. I pretty much love this one. And Will probably buy every color. Even the logo is cool. I expect the first recolor to be blue. Not sure why, just seems like it. In case your wondering, the base is metal, body plastic and riders rubber.

You can't buy this thing and not have track to run it on.
 
You're going to experiment the minimum number of Loopsters it will take to link the front cab to the back cab in a circle?

Lol! No, but I bet that's about seven.. judging from what i have. No I want to see if it'll live up to its name and go through a loop de loop all attached liked that.
 
^ While tracks no longer interested me a while ago, but I am definitely interested to see this happen. I look forward to hearing the results.
 
EDIT: Some Tomica news:

I'll get that one... :D

Yes awesome, looks great. 👍 On the subject on of Tomica Impreza's, I back ordered this the other day. Obviously wasn't paying attention when it was released last year :lol:, first time I've ever seen it. :dunce:

Once I get there I'll make video lol.

So Heritage Series. I like the designs so far. We got this. As of now. But I'm upset, as the Dodge macho power wagon is going to be replaced with the Bubble gunner. Guess is this is the first set of 6

I remember the list being longer. But the card says 18 total. So my guess is that while they're the same series, they're counting the real riders and redlines differently. That 240z looks great

Found a J case dump bin today. Picked up three zamacs, an Escort, and a few of the new recolors. I got two Loopsters just to have them. I think they're pretty nifty.
