I'll take that for sure. I have some Hogs I need run over.
Plus, it's ugly as hell which makes for some great playing. :)

Been driving the inimitable Jay Leno Tank Car in Gran Turismo (where else :sly: ) and suddenly had the urge to take this around in my pocket all day:

Edit: Also .Finally, I've finished all my moving crap and have relocated my packed up cars. So I'd expect some repost of my favorites as I pull them out. Yes, including the Hurrican haha

Came across a P case dump bin. Only walked away with the gray '15 Mustang GT, left a few Supra's and BRAT's behind. Someone already took all the BMW M4's and Lambo Sesto's. Didn't see a Fiat 500 either, probably because people are unaware that it's not actually a TH.

P case video for reference.

 
Happy k day. No super or basic. Not even a basic superbird.
 
That's a Belvedere I'll probably never find. :(
 
It's hit or miss. 99% of stores I've seen one or none at all, last 1% had 3-4 of them.
 
We get virtually nothing here. Our Walmarts are rolling back on even the basic cars now.
Surprisingly there was no Brat or red custom 15 mustang.
 
Ok so, ive actually had these for a couple weeks, and was lucky enough to find all but one in one go.
May I present, Hot wheels Heritage Redlines set one

I put them in order of my personal least to most favorite. But there's not a bad one in the bunch. Even the gasser with pink Windows is amazing.
 
My summer buying binge has arrived. That's it for 2015!

This reminds me of the time i spent almost 2 grand on a bunch of new 1:43 HiStory, ebbro and Kyosho models on ebay..all at one time. Good man, i love bulk buys :)

I think some people will remember that specific post from the Scale model thread.

I've only managed to find the Copper Stopper, the Dart and the Chevelle wagon. I've been actively looking around several Wal-Mart's.

I remember that post; who could forget? :crazy:
 
I consider you all insanely lucky... my area has been sooo scalped I'm lucky to find 3 month old cars on a good day...

I finally got my hands on the "spirit of '76" hot ones Monza last week...
 
I always find the Kyosho 991s to be a little iffy looking. They look like they're made of jelly, they're all blobby and unrefined in their moulding, and they always seem to go full donk with the wheels. It looks more like a caricature at times.

I tend to agree and don't at the same time. From certain angles it looks fine, but something is definitely off. It's still nice, but probably the worst of the porsche's Kakashi has posted so far
 






2015 kyosho porsche minicar collection 6 911 rsr turbo
:p​
Knockin on heavens door... Damn. Fenders, thick tires, huge spoiler. Nailed it. I want one. The whole set would be nice. But that's my most wanted
 
See, that's Kyosho quality.

The roofline is so squashed that the quarter windows look like the ones on the old glass-top Targa.
 
It's been a while since I posted here. I went to Walmart today to get something for my father, but I also decided to look at the hotwheels and see if they had anything I was interested in. The hotwheels section looked half-empty, but I managed to find some cars that interested me. I got my first Jaguar Project 7 & Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
