No Impala or Camaro chase piece but found 5 of the 6 cars for the black and gold series.

New pictures of older stuff.


Tomica

Nissan Skyline GT-Turbo




Don't think I ever got around to taking pictures of this one back when I bought it. Looks good.




Kyosho

Lamborghini Bravo




Never took pictures of this one up until now either.

The massive amount of negative space really create that sense of a minicar.

It's not a real minicar experience if you're not squinting to see the details.

They're chase pieces? My work had a full selection on the shelves here in England. I will probably get the Twin Mill.
Just a chrome Gold Camaro is. Impala is the regular set piece.

That's fair logic. I'll remember that the next time I pick up any small cars.
 
Without postage obviously, c'mon.

2018 Globe Travelers
Land Rover Defender 110S

The new wheels on it are quite sharply detailed. You have no idea how intricate it really is until you get a close look.

I've been outdone yet again.

Watch for any droopy tampo applications, y'all.

That aside, this one is pretty neat. See pic below:

While I'm at it:

I was pretty taken by the packaging and soft colours that I missed the poor tire installation. I've got stretched tires in my collection now. Go me.

I stop by this store I very rarely go to today, happened to be in the neighborhood. I was going to look at their gun accessories when I remembered they carried little bit of Hot Wheels, too.

I was looking for this last October, but this Ford pickup was the coveted one of the Halloween Series. I even bought one on eBay after I couldn't find it locally, then seller never shipped it, never heard from them again(eBay got my money back). Nearly six month later, after I stopped collecting, mission accomplished. Yeah, I bought it. Don't judge me. :lol:
 
Trying to get into Tarmac Works, can't decide between Civic Type R or Audi R8 LMS ughhh...
 
In my opinion the only Tarmac worth buying is the BMW.
Idk, i saw the E30 and it looks off to me. I think the grill is too big and the headlights are too small. Plus none of the liveries attracts me. Might look for one if i like Tarmac.

Just placed an order for the R8 LMS Nurb, hope it's worth it.
 
Screw the TLV Civic, there's no way I'm getting my hands on it. That's why I've pre-ordered an LB Works Nissan GT-R by Mini GT.

Stopped into my local Walmart last night since I had been out of town for a few days. Nothing new in the main isle but noticed a few new cars dumped into that weird endcap display the stores have now. As I was doing that, the toy manager came over and pointed me in the direction of a new dump bin that was stashed behind the bike racks. Picked up the purple R33, gray R30, green Land Rover (this one was hard to find one that didn't have a tampo shift), white Lambo Huracan ST and another I can't think of at the moment. Was going to buy the blue Mercedes AMG GT3 but could only find one of them and the tampos were smudged on the door so I left it. I'll try to remember to post a pic tonight.
 
Man, i'm still waiting for their R32, Land Rover, and Ford GTs.

Might be a while yet. The white Civic is now due to be released in mid May. They also moved production to a new factory. Hopefully the Asian Greenlight mockery won’t need to be used again.
 
Wasn't there supposed to be a new Bentley Continental GT3 in the Mini GT lineup, at some point too? Really interested to see how that one looks.
 
Don't know if anyone is interested in 1/64 NHRA stuff, but this may interest some of you. Also some Richard Petty stuff in there and I might pick up one of those Ford Super Duty's.

Johnny Lightning fans must be loving all these recent and upcoming releases.
 
I just noticed a real riders without rubber tires. Has anybody come across this before?
Yes, because people buy the cars, replace the rubber tires with plastic ones, and return them to the store to get their money back. Take a photo of the bottom of that car.
