OLD. :p

Well except the Hatchi, that's new. I like how their idea of a new livery was just to invert the colors. :rolleyes:

Everything else is OLD.

OLD.


:sly:
 
Not for these guys. You're the one who always complains how behind we all are.
 
I just google USPS and it seems like I have the wrong box, but they were free and they do offer a flat rate for Australia 👍

I found a Tuesday morning near my work and they sure did have hot ones. Picked up the only two ones based on real cars, a fezza gto and a lotus esprit. The lotus's paint job is awesome!
 
My Target finally rearranged the HW section and got a dump bin, but there was nothing in it and I'm moving 400mi away on Monday. Lol.

I've had this very same Lotus in my hand I don't know how many time. lol I never get it, because I always end up walking out of there with better cars, and it's also $2.99.

How much was the one you found?
 
Im not one to criticise, but I wish they would stop using the wheels on that boulevard so much, those are the ugliest ones they have in my opinion.
 
Now I'm feeling like Kevin when he catching up on this thread..... Hmmm, we share something in common.

Well guys i (or technically my neighbor) just won an auction today on ebay!:D It is something i have wanted for a while and now it is finally mine!:dopey::D
Dwight I understand you said you were jealous about that Curiousity rover i posted recently, if you think that is awesome, you really going to be jealous to see what i have now....;)
Vspec, by all means i got something really awesome to show for you when it arrives!:D Have an ambulance ready because this one is pretty heart stopping! (well maybe not literally):lol:
R1600Turbo, your really going to like this....;)
Photonrider, you will like this one to!;)

Well, you along with everyone else here who have something unique that I've never seen or use to have. But yeah I can't wait, the car must be a JDM, Euro, Aussie or a Mopar. :sly:

I don't know if Target was good to my girlfriend and I tonight, what do you guys think? :sly:
She found the Flintmobile rather jealously, so that's her's as well as the Kombi.

Man that 70 Camino and Fintmobile :eek:👍!

Man, I gotta find those, real jelly.

Don't underestimate Phil, he's a rather excitable fellow. :lol:

Indeed, very high. I'm really curious now.

Hey, I'm not that excitable :p:lol:.

Or am I? :sly:

But I can't wait to see what Sony's getting. Probably unique and mind blowing cars from the best era of HW and MB (IMO) the 90's and early 2000s. :D

Jelly over the Matchbox RX-7 and Top Gear Hilux. :p

Anyways... Went to Walmart because my parents sent me there to buy some stuff and thought I'd stop by the Hot Wheels despite knowing the fact that the pegs were overflowing. However, I found a dump bin! It's been too long since we've had a dump bin and I found some E case cars!

E30 M3 (Only found one...wanted to find more. :grumpy:)
2 F12 Berlinettas
Carrera GT
Shelby Supersnake
And...Superleggera.

You found the E30 M3 as well?! :eek:

Man, I gotta find me one of those for my BMW collection ASAP!!!!

And yep, Ben's RX7 and the Top Gear Hilux is amazing. I seen that episode of TG on YouTube, it was interesting to watch this truck get beat up like it was in GTA or something. :lol:

R1600Turbo
Would anyone be interested in these?

They're both "Chase" pieces, Phil's signature on the bottom of both. (tampo)

Edit: Speed Machines returning?

Interesting link. 👍

After posting the Premiere Edition I thought,

"How many RX-7 I can find in the basement?"

Turns out: Five



ToyManShow is tomorrow! I usually do quite well there...I just spend to much money! PS: The video on the sites homepage couldn't be filled with anyone more fitting of the nerd description than the folks they chose to tape.

And don't forget me :sly:. Real jelly of you Wvyern, FIVE FD3S?! :eek::mad::crazy:

Share the 13Bs man! :p:lol:
 
I'm very late to the reply on this, but it would be awesome if Speed Machines did return. My brother has most of the set. I would like a few more myself.

Well ive got my hands on something(S) pretty sweet! Volkswagen Drag Bus Prototype body! in ZAMAC!

and. 1967 Lincoln Mk IV (RL) prototype Zamac..

ill throw some pictures up in a bit.. I may even sell the volkswagen

looks pretty good with my other zamac protos!
 
Proof that it's a prototype? I can strip the paint off of any of my cars and call it that...
 
R1600Turbo

No model markings and lacks the internal support beams the production ones have
 
Internal support beams? I have a Drag Bus sitting in front of me right now and I'm not seeing that.

I know you've already been through this with your Ferrari diecast you have, but pictures speak 1,000 words my friend.

Darn, I thought their prices would be lower. :crazy: Still good price for the Lotus I suppose!

Lol that's what I thought. I honestly thought the retail was 2.50 or so but it is much closer to the 4.99 they advertised

It's not any of those.... As a matter of fact it is not a car at all....

I will give you this, it is from the 90's.;)
 
Hah, I had some of those. Even had one of those canister things. :p
 
Looked closely at the C4 Corvette that I got and couldn't help but notice that there was some missing paint and an actual hole in the hood. :yuck:

So you bought a rust bucket? :p
 
So those Flying Colors... 2012 or 2013 or whatever it is... how much are they worth?
 
How much did you pay for them?
 
They were $3 at Walmart...

I know some US residents have seen and bought some so I imagined it's not as demanded...






....as the Road Racers... (:p)..
