AOS: OK, I'll play. Send me any inquiry. 👍

Medigo: I take that F40 comment back. I did have the red one, too.



But I recommend this one.
 
Ran to the local self-service car wash to get some quarters and stopped at the local Big Lots on the way. Only thing I found was a tampo error:

Jason, interested in trading that Torino? (and don't think you need to send it to me for the Civic. That is my gift to you.)

$39.99 for 30 comes to $1.33 per car. :embarrassed:

Yeah! Guys here told me about that store & the very same set like weeks ago, so I was very pleasantly pleased to see it in my store today. 👍

For that price and there's alot of good cars in that set, I'll be one happy guy. Even if that set cost $$$$, I wouldn't sell it. ;)

Now I'm gonna look into Tuesday Morning store, but I wonder if they have a store out here in Vegas though. :indiff:

Tomica Limited and Ebbro 1:43:

Nice CBAR35 GTRs. 👍

AOS-
@VSpec, Haaaaillll no!

I'm planning to throw in a single prop that will replace the sorry attempt at a magazine cover that is the unrefined text. We just won't be seeing it until January because it needs to be laser cut. ;)

Well, that something I have to wait to see. ;)

Negative sir, that's the normal release.

This is the all black base:

Hmmm... I'll check mine, but I know it's not that Fiesta.

Na man, it's cool. It's not a big deal.
Why are you wanting to get rid of your TR6s?

EDIT!

They have premium versions of KITT, Ghostbusters' car and The Mystery Machine?!?! :eek:

And is that KARR under KITT?! And here I am going crazy over not having the standard ones! :boggled: Well, at least I can get a chance now. :)

Speaking of the F40... I found this at the flea market, but didn't buy it because I spent my cash on a 1:18 Acura NSX. :indiff:

Hmmm...... I think I remember having that same red F40 when I was a kid.

Just curious, what are you viewing this thread with; your phone, computer, what?

I usually use the iPhone or touch app for my viewing. Since it's easier and quicker than hopping on the PC all the time. Especially when I'm on the PS3.

With the money you have in these, one keeps wondering what you're doing collecting hot wheels, or scale cars for that matter. The money on these cars alone should be enough to buy a car or start a project.
 
Welcome back Theace. Good to see you back 👍

Are you talking about your 510? i thought it already had wheels, would love to see some new pics of it.

@ AOS.
Love the new shooting angle of those pics 👍, + Cano is right, an 'MCR' R34 would look the nuts!

Ive got a nice car. I do this because my grandfather did. I grew up around him.


He had every model by Frankin Mint ever made..

Nah I just threw those regular ones on. But now it has some proper Real Riders ones.
 
Ace - Waiting for pics of Protos. Especially Lincoln.

Don't upset the baby.


And a Merry Christmas to you, Ace - hope that your health is fine and you are a going-and-a-getting,. 👍
 
Indeed. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to everybody! 👍

Another "Final Run" car, it's Porsche 928 this time. Second seller who just threw it in the padded envelope. They want collector money for them, but they treat them like they are worthless. They usually ship them out nasty & dirty too. I have to get the glass cleaner out just about every time. 👎 Matchbox set was on sale for $2.99, I just couldn't say no. :P Atari car, I bought another one for the wheel swapping I'll never get to.

Just thought I'd swing by and wish everyone here a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, etc. :cheers:

Edit: Dat 928. :drool:
 
Jarrod: You know, it was one of those minimum bids I threw on eBay and I got stuck with it(like TWO other "Final Runs" I got on eBay lol), but it really is nice in person. I'm kinda glad now. :)

Cano: I like to pretend.

:P
