You bet, @jtl46 Thanks to the Japan Booster Black Friday sale Lamley promoted, I got a great deal on the red one, but certainly, this silver one was on my wish list. It's about what I expected, and that's great, because my expectation was pretty high. Old brown Bluebird's really neat, too. Very happy with it.

.My truck really suck in comparison.

I don't think it sucks, just doesn't quite look as cool as the one I ordered in comparison. We'll have to put that down on the same list with a certain Bluebird....

Speaking of Bluebirds. Those two you posted, awesome. Great scores. 👍

My trade hotline is open.

 

[a6m5]

It is, Jarrod. You PM me anytime. ANY. TIME.

God, I messed up on this one.

Probably but there's no need to stress about it a6. If you want one bad enough AmiAmi still has it available....

Yeah, this WILL be added to one of my future orders. 👍

Yes, you have my attention. Going to bother with your actual camera for this one?

There we go.

Hoh you've got a lot more R390s to find now.

If you're looking for more, I know places.

 

[yabiggoose]

Nah one's good enough, lol.

 

[AOS-]

I'll hold you to that.

Also, may want to fix R89C's antenna if you have a chance.

 

[yabiggoose]

What's wrong with it?

 

[AOS-]

Maybe it's just me but...

I'm seeing an antenna with a limp posture.

 

[yabiggoose]

Oh, hahah. Nah it looks fine now, I fixed it up.

I 🤬 on that purchase. For those four, unexpectedly high shipping brought it up to $40. Totally not worth it.

Damn. Totaly not. Maybe $15, lol.

Did you say that they were looking at Kyosho casting? or Mattel?

Downgraded Kyosho bodies with filled-in and painted lamps instead of separate plastic pieces, and chinese supermarket cart wheels.

Also @yabiggoose that green R390 GT1 is cool.

 

[AOS-]

Took exclusive rights off Mattel, and took Kyosho's castings along with them.

I've a 458 Speciale I need to find still. I may have to wait a couple of years for the value to drop under $20.


Also: Sad news: ramune7771's database has been taken down. Reasons unknown.

There goes my preferred source for CM's, Aoshima, Dydo and Majorette.

 

[a6m5]

@yabiggoose - Never seen green R390. Sweet!

Damn. Totaly not. Maybe $15, lol.

No, for four of them. $10 for the Porsche would be good(divided by four), but Heavy Chevy & GT500(already sold) were total duds.

Wow. Amazing..... ly tragic outcome.

Sorry, that's all I got right now.

Ah, I see. GT500 wasn't that bad, I would have kept it. Heavy Chevy, yes lol. I would have kept it too. But $40 was astronomical indeed.

Woo. Me Walmarts have began getting Greenlights.

Motor World for $3.46, GL Garage and Black Bandits for $5.77.

I was very tempted to pick up the Bronco, but I opted for other boxy cars by HW and MBX.

Hope that permeates to other parts as well.

More dirty cars from my display, my first made-in-Mexico redline, the Cipsa Swingin' Wing, which wasn't as dirty, as it was one of the cars I'd grab and clean a bit with my shirt sometimes.

After a bit of love, it even shines a bit.

I love how absolutely absurd it is that you can pull this thing's whole engine out

 

[Spacegoat]

There we go.

Never seen that green R390 before either, very cool. Great stuff mate. 👍

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

4 cars from the hobby shop.

Completed the X Ray cars.

Hyundai tiburon and another 911 gt1.
Then went to a Walmart and found these candy cars.

The chevelle and deco delivery.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Some cars came in.

Epic Army Jeeps:

And this beautiful piece of machinery:

Please don't point out imperfections in the above photo, cause I won't care.

And if you are not buying these Greenlight classic Mustangs, you are seriously missing out.

@RandomCarGuy17 here's a Matchbox Focus I have.


With a funny plate.

It reminds me of a Focus I saw on the box of a couple of matchbox play sets that I had when I was a kid.
I had a few Focus matchbox cars, but I either ruined them or lost them. *shrug*

Please consider that post double-liked.
Could you give us a rough estimate of how many of these may still be around (judging from the marketplace)?
