Very cool!

 

[Nvrrespected]

Got this stuff day before yesterday, just been lazy about posting it... As usual. Lol. I'm usually a day or 2 behind.

Matchbox supreme Heroes-
Hazard squad, Pierce fire truck, 63 Mack B Fire truck
I bought the rest. Yea I know, the rubber kinda sucks, the bases are plastic etc. But I like them! Weirdly. Since they are emergency vehicles. Which I don't collect, usually.
Explorer is still my favorite by a mile. The Hazard Squad is actually my second, I really like its design. Th diamond plated steel look alike in the back is great. The Pierce Aurora is cool, looks like a fire truck I'd see daily. The Mack B I'm undecided. It's a really nice casting, but it's not my normal cup of tea. This will probably be the only one ill have in my collection. But it's still nice for people who like it.

Matchbox Chevy K1500 pickup
Great casting. I really like this. It's one of those castings that I like in tiny form, but don't really like the real truck. It looks great with the hot wheels F150 that released this year. Still haven't found a Dodge Ram to go with it. I have the Green Light one, but it's decidedly bigger.

Hot wheels 33 Ford.
Cool little hot rod. Weirdly skinny, but I like it cause it's like dead on for an Old school hot rod.

Hot wheels 67 GT500 Mustang - ehhh. Its weirdly bulky. I like the purple and silver color scheme though.
HW 70 Torino- white look awesome and I actually like the tampo design. Gives it an old dirt track racing feel. Why are torinos so cool?
He 2012 Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca- this is literally my favorite of all modern mustangs in real life. And the casting is good. But the front splitter bugs me to no end. The little normally cable holders, are solid plastic triangles. I'd have rather them not put anything. Eh well.

Hw Mustang Concept 2 - I like this one a lot more than I expected. Colors nice. Tampos are nice and simple. It's clean and cool.
Hw 56 Ford F100 panel - I like the Green, but could do without the gold detailing. Still cool though. Also.. I realized..

I now have both a custom and stock version of the F100. A good display of the difference of Hot Wheels and MatchBox.

63 Vette Stingray - I like this car, but it has a problem. The wheels stick out too wide. Way too wide. But its still nice.
69 Camaro - this is so nice. So so nice. Black shiny amazingness. Perfect tampos.
Firebird 400- can't remember the year, that's ok. Like this one in gray, the only thing I dont is the Windows in red.

Auto world Viper- first auto world I've bought. It's overall very nice. The headlights are the only thing I don't like. Also was suprised to find out it has plastic tires. It's size perfect for the hot wheels vipers too.

Well that has to be a first on this forum; the first scale model horse carriage that was ever posted here on this thread. And a really cool one to boot. How did you come across it, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

That Viper was my first Auto World too.

 

[Avalonbug]

I am seriously enjoying this new Matchbox Batch... D, I believe? That 1M recolour and the GT40 are spot on. I can't wait to get my hands on some.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I decided to take some pictures of my old diecast, ones that I collected during my childhood & teenage years. I forget why I still keep them around. Maybe I can one day make some stop motion videos with them.

Anyway, here they are and these aren't all of them. I collected quite a lot of them during my life. Note, there's a lot of scratches and stuff on them. I really didn't take the best care of them, which is why I now keep hotwheels cars in the packages.

Spoiler: diecast

 

[CodeRedR51]

These don't have wheels, but this started life as a Hot Wheels thread, right?

At $6.99 a pop, my wallet is not prepared.

Who has 1 and 3/4ths thumbs and is officially a fan of Auto World? This guy... Well except I have 2 thumbs. But yea.
So I got 7 hot wheels at a lucky grocery run.
4 matchbox, from a 5 pack. The 5th I hated, so I gave it to some kid on the way out.
And 5 Auto Worlds.

As always, starting with Hot wheels.

2005 mustang GT - this is officially the first model I've picked up an consciously been like, dang those rear wheels are huge. I'm not sure why on this one it sticks out, but it does.
other than that though, I like it.

70 Camaro and 68 Dodge Dart
The camaro is awesome, possibly my favorite HW camaro. The Dart I have another color of, and I didn't realize that when I bought this one. But I like it so it's ok

Lamborghini sesto elemento. Pagini hyura.
Hopefully those are spelled right. I love both of these super cars, and they are both pretty amazing. The pagini needs more low, but the color is my favorite, so its ok.

Alfa Romeo 8C competizion. Fiat 500 abarth.
They both scream Italian, so I put them together. Plus the same red. Yup. The 500 is spot on perfect. The Alfa. It's an Alfa. I can't not like it. It's gorgeous even at this scale.




Phone is malfunctioning. Post the matchbox and auto worlds tomorrow

 

[Spacegoat]

Oh. Emm. Geeeeeeeee.

Cool set. Ramcharger and 2014 Ram, yes to those two.

Ok, that Impala is beautiful. The rims, the colour... Surely it can't get any better than that...

Oh. Emm. Geeeeeeeee.

Welp! Never mind what I said, it just did. Damm, Greenlight, what fuse did people lit underneath you? Dat Ramcharger is great stuff, but then those Broncos... They should've called them the Bonkers, because they are just that. Can't wait to see all of those in non-drawing form.

They actually have a flickr account where they post hi-res photos of everything they have or are going to release. No pictures of the trucks yet though.

I have always wanted one of these, so I searched the eBay and found one that was of reasonable pricing. So I bought it.

I am waiting for my Greenlight to arrive... The wait is so... LONG...

Thank you. Ha. They posted pictures of a challenger recently that are just... Yes... Much want.

Greeeeeeeen.

Matchbox Honda Ridgeline and Travel Trailer.
The ridgeline is fine. I like it well enough, but not crazy about it. The travel trailer on the other hand, is super cool. Yea it's plastic, metal base, but it's awesome. The inside is actually super detailed. I mean there's binoculars the table. I want another to customize.

Matchbox Chevy Tahoe
It's cool, but kind of just an extra to what I actually wanted from the 5 pack. Helps that it's a super nice casting.

Matchbox Cadillac CTS-V wagon.
Oh I love wagons. And this thing is so sick. I love it. Matchbox nailed this one.
Auto world Mustang SVO -
This is one foxbody mustang I truly like. Yea it's still ugly but oh man it was fast. A turbocharged 4 cylinder, unheard of in a mustang before, and it weighed about as much as a bag of cotton balls. Auto world has me interested, after the Viper and This. But wait there's more!

Auto world Ford Country Squire and Chevy Kinswood Estate
Wagons are so freakin cool! These big giant road boats are stellar, good details, and the hoods open, plus all metal and rubber tires. Awesome. Even the rims are correct. Of the 2 i think I like the Ford better, since my grandma had one, but the Chevy grill is just ridiculous cool.

AW Chevy El Camino and Mercury Cyclone.
These two I got because they're both something a bit less common. Completely stock looking muscle cars. I love el Camino s (utes in general) and the color on this is stellar. The mercury is cool and I haven't seen another. It's a nicer model with the rubber tires and hood opening. I really like the lines of the car and details.

So.. obviously il be collecting Autoworld

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Chevelle?

Well I done derp'd. That's what I get for not paying attention.

Hmm, interesting. Better pay attention to that space, there are some very pretty cars in there.

Well, you really wanted that horse carriage, eh? Must be a collector's piece, I bet you won't find many of those for cheap.

Also, nice (Galant) GTO. 👍

Found out today that these in the photo are being shown at a Toys R Us in Canada = $$$$$$

Expect them to be $4-5 in cheaper stores in the USA. (Target, Walmart, etc)

What did you say 7 bucks? That's a negative ghost rider. They're 4.99 here in the US of a I believe. I'll have to double check

$7 Canadian dollars at Toys R Us there.

I expect them to be around $6 here at the same stores, maybe $5 at Walmart/Target.

We want more pictures! (clap clap) We want more pictures! (clap clap)

Ah, just kidding. Or am I? Well, that depends on whether you actually post extra pics or not. Anywho, great set of cars. That Tomica Premium is definitely one of the best recent Tomicas, it's just so clean and elegant-looking. I am not sure if that's a testament of Tomica's quality or the Lotus' great design, but it works so well. I can't wait to see what other cars will the Tomica Premium line have.

The TLV's are as usual very cool, the 117 is my favourite of that lot, but only by a small margin, because the Galant ain't half bad either. The Choro-Q is cute, but also surprisingly badass for a chibi NSX. That concept... A "Chibi NSX". God bless you, Japan. 👍

But the one which I like the most is the R92. Granted, it's for a more personal reason; related to Twitter. You see, one of the people I follow there is a Japanese man, who happened to work for anime shows as a mechanical designer. And of course, he loves cars as a result, and often posts model cars. And as it happened, he posted a detail shot of the carp air canard of the R92. Sure enough, I asked him about why did Nissan placed that in the car, and he answered me saying that it was a hommage to a local Japanese festival (the car was raced in Japan at the time of said festival), where people fly kites that look like carps. So there you go, history lesson learned.
