Nice!

Shame the Evo is a regular GSR and not a Tommi. Was hoping for a Tommi rep in the car culture series.

TME would be cool, but I feel like that'd kind of limit them on future releases. At least a GSR gives them the ability to do different colors or liveries.

Oh yeah new TLVNs.
 
This has to be the most accurate 1:64 scale car I've ever seen. It looks like a 1:43 scale car. I pre-ordered it in red immediately after seeing it on Instagram yesterday morning.
I want to pre order it too but I still don't know which want I want. Either the P400 or the SV.
 
Just got these two earlier today:

A quick verdict: Both are very good releases, but the Maroon 911S’ headlights and their housings are a little bit loose, which is a problem the orange 911 curiously doesn’t have. It’s probably due to some excess plastic blocking the headlight from slotting fully into the space, but it’s not really a problem. The 911S also has metallic flakes in its exterior paintwork, which are a bit too dense for my liking, although different people may have different reception to it. Both these things knock the 911S down a notch to slightly below its orange sibling, despite the 911S having a more appealing exterior/interior combo on paper, if I were to rate them. Overall they’re still very high-quality releases that offer excellent value-for-money, even more so if you consider TLV’s recent models’ pricing.

Oh, and if you’re worried about having to assemble the side mirrors with glue yourself, one thing I can tell you is that they come pre-assembled on the car. Yes, I’m equally (and pleasantly) surprised as well when I opened the box. :lol:

Still on the fence with this one. I like it, but I’m not quite sure I like it enough to pay 70 USD for it. 😕
 
Years ago I had a couple hundred 1:64 Hot Wheels/Matchbox/Johnny Lightning cars. I sold some and gave the rest (a medium-sized storage container full) to my 2 nephews.

I think I have maybe 2. I know 1 is the BTTF Delorean. The other is a truck of some kind. I might have 1 or 2 more, somewhere in a box.
 
Finally got my hands on the TLV Calsonic R32 after it sat in Kawasaki airport for the last two months waiting to be shipped. 😅

Edit: Excuse the crappy mobile pic. I forgot that the bonnet opens.

I'm really interested in the Nismo GTR. It looks way too detailed for a Matchbox.
 
Been finding the Exotic Envy cars at Target.

Also the Evo and 3000GT will be part of the new Modern Classics set. This might be a difficult one to find.

Just found them at Walmart so I picked up the Senna. Had already purchased the Lambo from eBay, go figure.

This might be a difficult one to find.
I'm going to relay the funds from selling my extra set of the drift cars (whenever my box arrives) to reserving a box of these.

Walmart has been dead in my area for months. Any time they do restock, they're wiped clean within days. I need to check them more often, but it becomes very disappointing when the shelves are almost always empty. Target has been a little bit more lucky for me for hunting.

Honestly never considered buying a box for a set, but the Modern Classics set is very tempting.

Also, T-Hunted just showed the next F&F premium set. I do like the Charger widebody.

Usually around $70 USD for a box but as I said each box comes with 2 sets so if you only need one you can sell the other and make some back.

Another box I'll have to buy...
 
Recent hauls, found a lot of Johnny Lightning two packs and a few autoworlds including the Supra, C8 and Demon

Some of those Matchbox are a true renaissance to their best eras. Wow for the variety and execution on the Nismo and the new Defender.
 
@Gotbeefboy564, I see you also scored the '67 Chevy C10. So close to the truck I have, yet so far away. It is now more sought after by me than the previously mentioned Ford Lightning.

Yep those are usually gone.
