Nope. The orange Porsche is part of the Boulevard series.

Wow, it's awesome! Thanks for posting the pictures of the new super treasure hunts LamleyGroup! Now I know what to look for!

I'm pretty sure you could have erased the image URLs on a Vita.

@frogman, damn lol got work tomorrow. The one on valley or the legit one in el segundo?

Picked up a ralph's 2-pack at el marcado with the ralphs hiway hauler and the silver 845i with opening doors! The bmw also has headlight/taillight tampos.

Was gonna pick up a hot wheels boulevard 914 and a matchbox firebird, but couldnt find it in me to spend $5 on two cars

Easier said than done when you have slow internet.

Internet speed doesn't have anything to do with it.

Also, that super S2k is only one of many from this year. And as stated earlier, all Treasure Hunts next year will be hidden in the mainline without a green stripe.

You'll be surprised To be honest I think i may have been passing by all these Treasure Hunts and errors and i didn't even know it, i guess now im going to have to stop searching for green stripes and do a more close search to find these. Frankly i think i see that green cuda back there on a daily basis in both forms. I think im going to get it next time i see it.

Why is it that bidders on eBay from other countries insist on winning your auctions even though the auction clearly states "Ships to USA only"?

Now that is odd!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Not a huge deal, but I had that auction listed as free shipping. So I sent him a message telling him that it'll be a couple days before I can get him a quote and that shipping is definitely not free now.

 

[a6m5]

I've sold countless items on eBay, and something like that have never happened. I do list the shipping & payment information right on the main(item) description too though. Once in awhile, I get people asking if I would, before they bid on the auction.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anyone need an A-Team van? Too late.

Here are those extra cars I have. Let me know if anyone needs anything, you'll have to pay for shipping. (around $3.50 for standard mail, no tracking etc)

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

So no new cars at the Mattel store . but hey i bought the 3 lane super speed way for 45$ a steal considering its like 120$ at target
* they had a super duper sale today*, and ive been wanting it for a while now =D Only thing is it never always start up when you flip the switch but you just have to wait about three seconds and breeemmmm! unlimited powwwaaaa , four of the ten cars it came with seem to be perfect for the track..

 

[a6m5]

I inquired about the top-right, bottom-right, and the top-left from the R1600's cars, but what is the car on the top-right?

Good looking car, but I can't make out what it is.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Top right is a 24/7 (RX-7)

 

[a6m5]

Ah, I just caught that the car is from 2010.

 

[AOS-]

ooh pretty lights...... forget your plain white backdrops

 

[CodeRedR51]

You probably have some fancy pants camera and too much time to spare.

I just don't care how fancy my pics are.

Purchases from the open flea market today. Finally got around to driving there! Same vendor had a box along with a bag to show me, not much. But here's what I got:

Rather appropriate that I got some Batmobiles and opened one up. Got back from watching The Dark Knight Rises with friends.

Today's turning to be a good day, parents even bought themselves a car. So they'll be handing me down one.

 

[a6m5]

Score! Congrats, Medigo. 👍

AOS: I think the pics look awesome. 👍 I almost want to buy that whatever new BMW you got there after seeing your picture, but I still think Matchbox should go to jail for what they did to the Ford GT. First time I saw it, I picked that thing up off the peg like three times, then putting it back. I think ended up muttering something classy like 🤬 or 🤬, then put it back on the wrong peg(hot wheels section).

Jason/R1600: It just hit me, was that $3 to add the cars to my existing eBay cars, or was that $3, plus shipping? Sorry, I got little hasty and thought it would be easy for me to just send you the money, didn't wait for the invoice.

Edit:

What I picked up today.

Old beater from eBay. Tomica(1979) Celica Turbo

Bonus shot of the "Classic Seagrave Fire Engine" by Matchbox

[MedigoFlame]

Still haven't found the Hot Ones Honda CR-X...

Trade, Ben? Those do look considerably smaller than the Hot Wheels Porsche. But the detail looks good. 👍 Awesome purchases.

 

[commodoreben]

Depends on what cars you want and what you wanted to trade them for

 

[a6m5]

I LOVE IT! 👍 Those little guys are awesome, and I adore the Mini Ha-Ha as well. Never seen that one before! Red Countach.....

Those Kenmeri's doesn't look like Kenmeri's though? Looks more like a Mazda or something, but the pics are kinda blurry.....

Medigo: That was my second CR-X. I was so impressed by the casting on it, I had to buy another one to take it out of package, and it did not disappoint. I love this car.

 

[commodoreben]

I stuffed up. Those Kenmeri's are actually Mazda RX-3's

 

[a6m5]

I knew it! lol

 

[commodoreben]

Im blaming a lack of sleep from watching the Olympics

 

[a6m5]

Not only haven't I watched any Olympics, I haven't even seen any of the results on the news!

By the way, using that Hot Wheels Porsche to show the scale of the Capsule cars was a great idea. 👍 I thought they'd be smaller.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

ooh pretty lights...... forget your plain white backdrops

Nice pictures AOS!!! 👍 Love how the lights bring out the car's details and their shadow effects.

Congrats on both, the cars from the flea market and a real one! :tup:

@Ben: O_o Holy VTEC!!!! Those Capsule cars are smaller than the HW Porsche .

But regardless of their size, they look amazing though, espically the 240Zs, RX-3s, Hako Skylines and don't get me started on that Legacy GT-B wagon 👍.

 

[Nessy]

Sweet looking Tomica capsules commodoreben 👍, though i agree with a6m5 in that i'd thought they'd be smaller (look as though they're 1/80 - 1/85 scale), i think i was expecting them to be 1/100 scale like those tasty little metal Koyosho.

a6m5.... Stop it with your (x2) Hot Ones CRX that i don't have!!, i feel like HULK SMASHING with my jelly green internet hands that beautifully crafted diecast.

Seriously, i need to get me one of those.

I just don't care how fancy my pics are.

Fancy? The same old 4.1 megapixel camera I've been using for all the pictures I've been posting? I have nothing fancy; just makeshift veesions of the good stuff I built and put together on my own.
