1/64 Model Collectors Thread

Sigh, I don't have anything he's interested in. Don't wanna pay $25 for that car though.

I see it still has zero bid on it. Why don't you sell some cars to us, fund your new project?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Don't have much to sell, and I wouldn't sell you cars for more than retail.

Give us a list! I'm sure you got something I'd want. Any Super, or regular Treasure Hunts?

Edit: Do you have the Michael Keaton Batmobile by any chance? It's supposed to be #31 from 2004?

Aos, could you post a picture of the Majorette cars you have found over there?

I don't understand this request. You want me to post one picture containing all the Majorettes ever found, in my country? I cannot fulfill that request as stores carry arguably less than the first time I've ever seen them. Might I add the Xsara I bought today was the first time I ever seen it in singles. I bet the Toys R Us Express where I first saw Majorette Racing Singles had everything, but my sister made me feel bad so I didn't get any at the time.

I can however post all the singles I've come across and currently own.

Both 5 Vettel and 6 Webber.

Now, those are nice. 👍

I remember when we took Mitsubishi Montero(Pajero) to vacation in Canada once. People were coming up looking at the car. Finally, one guy told us that Mitsubishis weren't sold in the area, but they liked the Monteros/Pajeros.

 

[AOS-]

We have Mitsubishi dealerships. We just don't have Pajeros in the GTA to my knowledge; just Eclipses, Lancers, Galants and Outlanders.

 

[a6m5]

This would've been back in mid-to-late 90's. Maybe he said no Monteros, I don't remember for sure.

Don't have that one, no.

List is in my sig. Only stuff I'm willing to part with has a "Y" in the Trade column, far left.

 

[Cano]

Ugh. The Megane Trophy. And not because glasses.

Do you still see those?

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

They were first edition cars last year I believe..

 

[a6m5]

Damn, sorry buddy. I went through the list, but couldn't find anything I want that was available.

 

[AOS-]

Noope. Do you want me to get one for you should I see one in the future?

 

[Cano]

Noope. Do you want me to get one for you should I see one in the future?

Yes, please. I'll trade you for Treasure Hunts or whatever the heck you want. I have a lot of available cars.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I have a lot of available cars.

You think?

 

[AOS-]

Haven't you read why I don't want THs from others? I'd rather get regular cars for a trade.

 

[Cano]

You think?

Well, right now not a lot. Come july, ugh, hyes.

Also, if you don't want THs, fine, I have a lot of basic cars, loose old cars, whatever.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Well a dog woke me up at 6:30 this morning so I seized the opportunity to hit a bunch of WalMart stores on the way to work. Hit a total of 6 stores and didn't get a single car.

The best news I got out of the whole thing was that a store manager was checking inventory in the car isle at one of them and told me that they have 792 cars headed their way and will be in tomorrow night. Guess where I'm headed at midnight tomorrow...

 

[AOS-]

Buy an extra of whatever new things you find for me!

/very very serious

 

[CodeRedR51]

We'll see. I'm trying to figure out why so many cars though? Stories going around right now of stores getting 72 count shippers (the blue cardboard end caps) which means this store has 11 boxes headed their way.

Hopefully they have some out tomorrow night. If not, I'll get up early and hit them again Saturday morning and maybe a couple more times over the weekend. Knowing those cars are on the way, I WILL PREVAIL!

 

[Cano]

Just won 36 80's HW-Matchbox cars. Happy because I was lacking most of the Matchbox cars and because there are three Hot Wheels in rare colours that I had been chasing for a while now, including the green Auburn Speedster. Now I only need the TH of dat one.

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

Can some one please answer me, do you guys trade with one another? I have TONS *200+* cars id happily trade for first editions

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

Ok so here some Photoshop'd work and "the work shop" for now on all cars will be photographed here * flowing pictures are an example* And no i would not harm the nice little 80's 911 like i did to the yellow car behind it , il probably shoot new cars on saturday when i go to target again

And so fell the night.. by frogmanlego, on Flickr

morning shop by frogmanlego, on Flickr

 

[CodeRedR51]

We don't really, no.

And: edit button.

 

[AOS-]

I'd dig that first pic if it was in focus.

Also, make sure you don't get the edge of the perforated sheet metal; it kills the impression of a funky ground.

 

[CodeRedR51]

So this is what I expect to see tomorrow night: (I'll be checking this store in the morning though, just in case)

I see it as the exit of the garage XD , Any hows I don't own a focus =/
I may go to the collectors place on Saturday to support the "scalpers", * i doubt the guy i buy of is since he sells for 99 cents* but then again there are the other guys who charge 3 $ per car but damn some times its well worth it * like the guys who were selling the A team van for 10$ i found 2 in the bargain bin last month!!*
PS have any of you guys seen a white ken block car? I have one but iv never seen any more?

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

Target on Sunday!! =/ Is it just me or have hotwheels been scarce to come by lately, every pallet is dirt empty, ive been hitting up the kb toys lately and i find good rare cars since no one goes t

 

[CodeRedR51]

KB Toys doesn't exist around here anymore.

 

[TheeFrogmanlego]

KB Toys doesn't exist around here anymore.

Toys R us express my bad

 

[AOS-]

Is that a blue lancer in the very front?

Grab that for me.
