1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[AOS-]

Well, my Zellers is cleaned out. All I grabbed was this for $2.39.

Pretty picture indeed.

There's a 5-pack of Hot Wheels called the "Mopar Muscle Pack" at Zellers that is dying to be bought. I've almost convinced mom to get it for me.

New sneak peeks.

Nice I'm loving the Tundra and the Mustang cop car.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Seen those 3 weeks ago.

Anywho, have to get the HW Racing Challenger and maybe the trucks.

That Beetle is a Super TH too, keep an eye out...

 

[Schwartz]

Just acquired one new hotwheel today, however I wasn't planning on it. I found this poor thing in the dirt. Definitely in need of some TLC. I believe it is a Formula one car from the 80's.

I want the Dodge Van(my all-time fav), but I don't want the whole set!

Yeah you have to be a RLC member. Something I have been meaning to do but keep forgetting. You get a bunch of stuff (like an exclusive car) with the membership, so it's worth it.

I think I'll pass. For $50, I can buy some neat stuff, hot wheels, or otherwise!

I'm thinking maybe $8 at most for them...?

I thought I might make a play at that, but internet is a horrible invention..... I'm starting to commit my resources to other auctions it seems!

Sometimes I just don't get it.

I don't either. Pathetic.

I've started collecting Hot Wheels after buying a bunch for my little brother. Picked up a '70 Plymouth AAR Cuda, '68 Chevy Nova and a '67 Pontiac Firebird 400.

Start posting pics! Whenever some of us make purchases, we share photos. I don't know about other guys, but more than once, someone post a cool car, and I end up going "I must have that!".

Little guy looks cozy in there, doesn't he?

 

[SVX]

I love how that Lil' Red Express Truck is purple.

Not the internet, capitalism. Also looking at other auctions, the internet is full of wonders...

It's...a shade of red...

Heading to NY tomorrow for my brother's graduation. And I'll be heading home in his car rather than my parents (luckily), so we'll be making some detours on the way home. NH with no tax!

Anywho, have to get the HW Racing Challenger .

The '71 Challenger looks so much sleeker than this one... it's also mysteriously smaller for some reason.

Not all Hotwheels are the same scale.

 

[AOS-]

That's unfortunate; it made it look so scrawny when I put it beside the HW Racing Chevelle 396..... or Pontiac GTO....

Internet! Without internet, I would never see them or have access to them!

How were they done?

Some more pics for you all to look at.

Man, "The Hot Ones" series is really killer this year. "Hot Bird" and "Large And In Charger" especially.

 

[a6m5]

I think I kinda like Long Gone.

So much for me stop collecting. I got approximately $20 tied up on eBay auctions right now, not including shipping. All from one seller, and we are not even done yet!

Speaking of eBay, I'm having to resort to last second sniping. This cheap shot mother trucker started attacking these series of cars by the seller, and because some of us are trying to win multiple cars to save on shipping? This guy is bidding on just about everything, all at last couple of seconds left.

I got annoyed, so I ended up bidding even on the cars I didn't want, just enough to bump up the price so he has to pay higher price for each one. So far, I got all my cars.

Edit:

Camaro Club '67 Camaro by Hot Wheels. I know it's full retail, but is it worth $10? I feel like a sucker, but they look pretty cool, no? PICTURE

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

I would go for that Camaro A6, if I were you. Love that prostreet drag look of the car. Get it if you can bro.

 

[gtone339]

I have a Hot wheels version of:

- Enzo Ferrari
- Chevrolet Corvette stingray
and many more.

I ended up ordering it. It was the most expensive car of the $60 order. Not counting what I got going on eBay. Did I mention that I quite collecting a week or two ago?

Welcome to the club bro! Your collection will grow real fast, espically when you look at some of the pictures of other people's cars and how to score online bids like crazy on eBay. Take a look at some of the previous pages.

Woah a $60 order?! That's a big feat for your collection right there A6.

But hey, that's the HW bug my friend. It always get you with something nicer than before.

Collecting is like reading a good book. Once you begin, you can't stop it until you completed.

Edit: 900th post!!!

Thank you bro!! Yeah I've been looking at other users hotwheel/matchbox collection. They're all great!! 👍

I picked up a Grand National at a grocery store last night. Might be a car from last year though.

 

[Cano]

I'm off to the Mexico Club get-together. I hope to bring home some good stuff and maybe a prize for the Dodge Rampage I restored. I'll let you know tonite.

I don't think I've ever seen this work of yours. Best of luck to you Cano! 👍

 

[M-POWER_FTW]

Liking that Motor City Hotwheelers Club Viper, Commodoreben. 👍

Picked up two cars today. Went looking for some new wheels for a custom I have in mind, and ended up finding a no side tampo error as well. Today was a good day.

Pretty, but need the wheels.

And here's the error. Probably been there for a while, but just noticed it now.

Here's what it's supposed to look like.

I like it better without the tampos. There are so many cars I see that I just wish they would sell without tampos on them.

You're telling me. I think they ruin the car most of the time.
