Damn you and your great model stores

Either way, I love all of them 👍

I think I speak for everyone here when I say You are one lucky so and so

But I'm still contemplating on getting that, since I'm very happy with the silver one I bought weeks ago.


Plus, the blue 22B Impreza is also one of those new consigned items costing at 17 USD. Damn... even I am torn to choose right now.

That's really a very nice decision to make.

Personally, i'd say the 22B because you have a 911 RSR already (you may have another 22B I don't know)

Well...

...maybe this needs a brother.

It needs a Carisma brother.

Ah thanks, was probably the Murcielago I saw.

Either way, I want both, but they'll probably be way too expensive at the minute

I've found the RG-3 Gallardos for $9 outside of eBay. Because you don't see them often on the latter site, demand could be moderate to high.

Nice. I won mine for $18.75.

Some lucky buttcake managed to win it for $6.50. This is why I like looking for unpopular sellers and unpopular selling sites.

Oh wow, that cheap? I'll be keeping an eye out now.

Thanks 👍

Yahoo Auctions. That means this-and-that external fees. Not fun if you're grabbing only one thing, but it's possible to find its worth if you get auctions for very very low prices.

I didn't even know Yahoo did auctions and ill try to get a decent deal, with all the doodahs and whatsits accounted for 👍

 

[AOS-]

Jauce is a costly method. A forwarder charges I've commission a service fee that's 15% of however much that item price/auction costs... but even that is less costly than Jauce.

Talk to Yannick for more details.

 

[CodeRedR51]

More Greenlights on the way. This and this.

 

[a6m5]

Greenlight 1956 Ford F-100 + M2 Machines Wild Cards 1969 Chevy Camaro SS

 

[AOS-]

Saw that F-100 in store. We're getting Greenlights on the regular now! Not that I want to buy any.

I was tempted to grab a similar Camaro to do a mod for a friend who I totally broke a promise with. She wanted me to do a replica of Gorilla Boyz' L'Stylo some time last summer. Nothing has even began. I'm a terrible person.


Here's one back from 2012 that I ripped the blister off of just now:

2011 Speed Machines Citroen C4




Some random ebay seller by the name of medstudent4lyfe* or something similar sold this for $4.
Only a buck over retail. He profited very little, but this baby could probably sell good online now,
even without the plastic and paper.

*I don't know if that's supposed to imply anything bad about the guy.

#nostalgia #nope

[a6m5]

I paid $15 for those two(I was REALLY after the rare Camaro), so nothing in your random post really help me feel better. Nice Speed Machines.

 

[AOS-]

Is that $15 shipped? The F-100 is currently local here for $3.46.. (?)

 

[a6m5]

$15 shipped?

Always!

The F-100 is currently local here for $3.46.. (?)

Had I found one here locally, it would've been $3. It is what it is.

Edit: Like I said though, M2 Camaro was the main purchase there & it's not cheap in black. F-100 was a add-on, though I am a fan of the F-1/F-100 pickups.

I'm unsure how that went to feeling bad for paying $15... but L'Stylo D'Stylo!!!

 

[a6m5]

It's OK.

but L'Stylo D'Stylo!!!

So it was from the Gorillaz? I'm a long time fan of blur/Damon Albarn/Gorillaz. Wonderful.

New consigned 1:64 Kyoshos:

 

[yabiggoose]

How much are the Land Cruiser and Hiace?

 

[Spacegoat]

Those pics confirmed what I already knew....I need to get more Kyosho's.

 

[RCKakashi14]

How much are the Land Cruiser and Hiace?

Around 25 USD each...

 

[yabiggoose]

Ouch!

Nevermind then haha.

 

[CodeRedR51]

The blue Legacy is so good. Probably one of the better Kyoshos. Very rarely does something they make live up to my quality requirements.

 

[ScottPuss20]

I can't believe such a thing exists:

Location is rumoured to be a place in the next town... old stock, an abundance of it and ONLY $3...

What model line is that????

 

[photonrider]

I'm beginning to think we need an actual Hot Wheels Collector's thread; this one is turning out to be more of a 1:64 Scale Models thread - and a good one, too.
I think bona-fide HW collectors will know the difference.

I finally managed to get almost all my packages boxed, so now all my packaged cars are in boxes 12"X18"X10". 23 boxes so far but I need three more boxes. My plan is to take a group photo of the cars in each box and then paste this on the side of the box that is visible when they are stacked so that I could see at-a-glance what is in the box without actually having to open and peek inside.

@AOS- did you make it to the Toy Warehouse? I received their flyer last week, but can't bring myself to drive all the way to Etobicoke to purchase 20 bucks worth of cars. Wish they had a branch in Scarborough.

Then again - that may not be a good idea for my wallet.

New consigned 1:64 Kyoshos:

Woo! Cop those, bro!

What model line is that????

2012 HW Racing Series - Road Racers. Wasn't readily available in the US so collectors are nuts about these race cars.

Nope. I can't justify the cost of going there just to get stuff I already own. There is a 2nd location (though it's probably not the one with the Hot Wheels), at 60 East Beaver Creek, Richmond Hill.

If we keep breaking it up into separate threads there'd be about 5 1/64 threads alone.
