1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Managed to scoop this MBX Superking 'Iveco truck' off ebay the other day. It's a bit tatty and worn out, but i plan on doing a custom with it. I quite like how the front wheels steer.

Dude you can't be serious. That thing's way too damn good to break appart. Just look at it.

Yeah, it's not in too bad a condition. I'm not going to let that stop me though.

Fortunately i have another used one on the way, so it'll be the better of the two that is spared.

Did some eBay shopping over the weekend.

Greenlight: This, this, this and this.

Hot Wheels: This.

 

[Spacegoat]

No one actually bid on them apart from me (well, my dad) so they're all mine! For an incredible $21.20 Australian... Postage is about the same, so all up is about $43 in my case.

That is an awesome score, congrats. 👍

For a half second I thought you had it already and I was like buwahhhaaaa!!

Ah, you better. If not, you'd lose your doctor title like right now.

epic Datsun

Oh dear.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

My most recent Hotwheels cars. I managed to get my first C7 Corvette.

So I heard someone talking about Ivecos.





(Unknown year) Del Prado 1:64
Iveco 380E Camion citerne 1993 Italy




They're actually 1:64 even though they're the size of a standard 1:43. I dropped a comparison pic in the other thread if you're interested to see how big these trucks are.

That's so cool! Why is it cool?! I don't know why I like it! Lol

It will always be the 'Good Doctor', even in rare cases of malpractice.

I don't like truck either, but I've come to find models of service vehicles quite appealing for reasons unknown.

 

[Bo]

Here's something quite interesting. I've only just realised it.

So, here's a Tomica FW11:

Here's the other Tomica F1 casting, which formed a generic base for a lot of releases:

Here's a, err, Realtoy "F1 car"...

Here's a Welly "F1 car"...

The Welly and Realtoy cars are just worse castings of the Tomica cars. I have 3 of the Welly cars, and only clocked onto this after seeing one of the Tomica cars.

It's a strange thing. In real life they're whatever, but in small scale they become awesome. Maybe it's the ridiculous details they usually have. Or maybe its my little kid coming out. All little kids seemed to love fire trucks and stuff.

[yabiggoose]

Hitch and Yawn.

Only interested in the NYPD if it comes with horses.

And lol, who wants a poo brown Explorer?

Corgi had you sorted 50 years ago.

 

[yabiggoose]

I dread to think of the price for that in mint condition today.

 

[Cano]

Dat Vette.

 

[Bo]

Most are about £200-ish.

Slightly larger than 1/64, but here's something I will always love:

 

[yabiggoose]

Gotta admit on first glance I thought it was a Richard the Third.

 

[Bo]

I'd had plans to restore it, but it looks much nicer as it is.



Maybe give it some wheels.

 

[yabiggoose]

I'd say maybe a light clean. Don't wanna ruin its originality

 

[Spacegoat]

Digging on the '64 Vette and NYPD Ram. The others are pretty meh to be honest.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Love the 'Vette, dig the Krispy Cream livery on that C-10 (and its matching trailer), but the other two don't really get me that excited. The cop horse trailer does sound interesting...

And lol, who wants a poo brown Explorer?

Well, it has a boat, so it's guaranteed that Apok will buy it. Or then again, maybe not, but he does love boats.

Corgi had you sorted 50 years ago.

Nice, never thought you'd actually get scale horses (and horseman) with your scale trailer. Good job, Corgi. 👍

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Got new mystery models

Then new cool classics.

Only two that were there.

 

[Nvrrespected]

The vette kills it. I enjoy the krispy kreme livery, but I'm not sure ill buy it. The explorer is one I'm a fan of, but I'll need to see it in person to decide what if the color is ok. The ram.. I like that it has a camper now, but they have done a ram in every single set. Why not replace it with something else.

 

[AOS-]

So uh... guys. That Kyosho Porsche part 6 is out.

crosssea22 and busitarumo have listings up right meow.




Just sayin'

 

[CodeRedR51]

Oh yes.

 

[Nvrrespected]

Oh yes.

"The kid was cut in half Arnie, they had to scrape his legs up with a shovel."

Such a good movie. I'm actually kinda interested in most of this batch. Jurys out on the rapid responder, but the others I do like.
