Yeah, everything that involves making children cry is good in my book.

Cano's typical visit to the Walmart toy aisle.

Oh lord help me. I found Ebay.

A terrifying world of infinite overpriced possibilities. It was really nice knowing you Ken. 👍

It is from the tear of a small(and terrified) child.

Is there a support group somewhere? I'm on a rather fixed budget and still have 4 bids in.

Hey, not everything is overpriced. I've had impressive deals on E-Bay on truly rare vintage cars and other stuff ($48 shipped for five 1:43 Kyoshos), you just have to know your stuff.

Oh for sure, if you know what to look for, you can get some freakin great deals. Scored a 7up Ruff Trek ute off of there last year for a maiden bid of $4. 👍 And @Ken Koios was asking about support groups before, he may want to look into the "Nessy Ford Clinical Institute". Still one of the funniest things I've read.

Nuuuuuuu I won only 1 of the 3 Diablo GTRs.

*Gets two Datsun 510 Wagons Super TH* *smashes them together repeatedly*

I think all Hot Wheel collectors would be crying by then.

*Starts the tape*

Datsun Treasure Hunts. Will it blend? That is the question.

*dana-na-na-naaaaaaaa-na, nana-nananaaaaaaaaaaaa*


We received special request to test out Hot Wheels. While the $upers have valuable finishes, will it stand out just as much in our Blendtec blenders? Let's find out.
Today, let's put the speed to "Demolition Smoothie".

$uper dust. Don't breathe this!

I've scored a few VHTF variations on eBay pretty easily because the person who listed it didn't know about the variation and just listed it as a normal car for cheap. Haven't scored any recently though, last one was the all copper MC5 wheel variation on the red Datsun 620.

Slam that to the ground and call it a day.




Finally won that Gr.5 Lancia Stratos, and a CMS Suzuki SX4. I hope it won't be a let down. It seems I've had to fight for everything I've been looking for lately... except the yellow cars. Tis may be a sign.

Well, at least they are "gold foil-certified" now O_o

 

[CodeRedR51]

Sold out.

But at least we know they will be for sale soon on the HWC site.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got a red Ducati 1198. Did I buy that and post it here before? I have the white version but couldn't remember if I had the red one.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Sorry if this is a double post.
Got new mystery cars except for the viper.

Finally got the Kombi, and snoopy and the 1198.
Now for the big cars.
Iron man 34 dodge, and Hagar the horrible 56 nomad.

@Gotbeefboy564 how much are those Marvel cars and where are they sold?

Got the marvel one at a Target I don't usually go to. Was less than $5.00.

 

[Cano]

Damn, I want that. As well as the Texas Drive Em of the cereal series. @R1600Turbo ?

Marvel cars are a dime a dozen right now, don't know about the cereal cars.

Bad news is I can't get any for you until friday at this point. Broke.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

That was the first time that I saw cars like Iron Man.

Eh, don't worry, we're alll and the same I'm also flat-broke. Even so, when/if you have a chance, can you grab me a 34 Dodge and a 70 Blazer? I promise I'll send you the dough as soon as possible, but getting money off those guys (the magazines) is like trying to charge NASA or something.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Never saw the blazer or bronco when I got my Dodge.

Who isn't & who cares? j/k

:tup:

I can't believe you found it. Money in the bank. 👍

Sold out.

And would've been worth it. Oh, well. Can't win them all. *breaks TV*

j/k

Sorry if this is a double post.

I find most of the pop culture cars NASTY. Like those cereal cars we talked about, I do have a handful that I'd buy, but it's mostly miss than hit with these premium hot wheels for me. Great job finding the Snoopy & Kool Kombi. I hope I run into them soon, too.

Damn, I want that.

I saw the whole line up, so I stuck them all under the bins. I stomped on them first, just in case Johnny may find them. 👍

No0b. I'd think you know me well enough by now but you fail. You should know the second I put my hands on it, I'm gonna drill it appart and throw the body in the paint stripper.

I'm pleased to hear that.

It wasn't difficult. Always happy to bring the crippling syndrome known as "1:64 DVA" the attention it deserves.

Wow .

 

[a6m5]

I don't know if any of you would be interested, but I'm having a sale on TTP.

Discount Info

Link to the cars

If you are from this thead, I may be able to help in two ways: 1) I can go with my normal shipping($4.25 + 50 cents per additional item), or actual postage at the post office. Whichever is cheaper. 2) Some of the cars, I may be able to discount it further(contact me about any car you are interested in).

I ship just inside the U.S., unless your first name is Andy & has Chinese last name. Thanks.

We don't have DVA. I'm pretty sure. Maybe little bit.

Some needed more hugs from their mothers as a kid or something. I swear.
