1/64 Model Collectors Thread

That M2 Olds is spectacular, I have it in red, and it's amazing. Also, you have a PM.

That thing's very cool out of the case. I love it.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Just picked up this bad boy for $3.98 shipped.

 

[a6m5]

Sweet. 👍 I know my nephew got one(which I bought him). I should negotiate that away from him. He won't even care.

Example 1

or


Example 2


I, and probably every collector out there, values one of these a lot more than the other

Yea me personally i would get the Hot Wheels version just because it is on a Hot Wheels blister. Frankly im strictly a Hot Wheels only person, all other brands just don't interest me, but i will admit i find these Corgi's to be abit tempting.

Not much you can do. Like I said, I think the system is flawed. Almost every case, it is stupid to pay more. If you just save your best shot until the end, you are not breaking any rules, and most likely, you will end up paying less. It's not really playing fair, but ebay system, in my words, they are inviting it, they are encouraging it.

Yea it's crazy! Thats why i avoid auctions.

Treasure Hunt, Super Treasure Hunt, some cool Vintage Racing I missed out & had given up on, etc. Jackpot haul today. No new Boulevards, but this more than made up for it!

Nice 👍 That '68 citroen looks pretty cool, haven't seen that one before.

Got a whole lotta nothing today, the Target I went to was completely empty and I went to a Walmart slightly out of town that I hadn't been to before. 90% of their stock was 2011 models, and the pegs were full. Found a boulevard I liked and didn't have though.

 

[a6m5]

I've never seen that Boulevard before. Weird.

That Citroen was a old stock, as with the Vintage Racing, Delivery Series, etc.(in the same pic).

I'd keep eye on that Walmart, if I were you. All the ones close to mine are getting brand new (smaller)dump bin. Too bad you pretty much have to be the first one there to find any Treasure Hunts though, at least Super Treasure Hunts.

I really want the Fast Fish secret treasure hunt, but what I got was the Camaro Police car, twice. Figures.

Hey, Jon. Can I buy that Vintage Challenger off you?

Oh go to hell then, I wanted like ten cars ):

You can still buy them. Just buy the whole thing and customize the rest and donate them to Paint Guy Ahmed.

 

[Spacegoat]

Yeah, after I park my bus.

Not only did you find a $uper, but you found a $uper XB Falcon?

🤬

Oh and congrats.........I suppose.

 

[MedigoFlame]

I have been poking around the thread doing my best to keep up, but...I won't bother trying to do some kind of response to all of them. But that Mazda2...

Anyways...checked out Target, Walmart, and the flea market in my town...technically yesterday. Target and Walmart are overly filled beyond the pegs with boxes of cars laying on the shelves below. So I probably won't see any of the new E mix stuff in a while until they finally refill it. However after having not been to my flea market in a month or so, there was some new stuff.

Three grab bags (two for $1 and one for 50 cents)
Notable cars of the bags for me, GT-R, CTS-V, and 240Z. The others are the Ducati, another bike I can't remember the name of, some constructions vehicles, Subway Mustang Convertible, and others I don't know the names of.
Loose cars were all 50 cents, but the MX-5 was 75, however the cashier accidently rang it up as one of the 50 cent cars. 25 cent steal.
MB: Continental, Cayenne, GS430, Mini Van, Range Rover Sport, CLS, and XK.

You are calling me Jon. Why Jon!?

And sorry, I'm keeping the Challenger.

Not only did you find a $uper, but you found a $uper XB Falcon?

🤬

Thanks Cano. It's probably gonna go on eBay though. I much prefer the the first purple S-TH Falxon XB I got off of eBay.

Medigo: I like the Rover, Bentley & the Lexus GS. Nice(and as usual, cheap!). 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

Anyone need any of the Ferrari F430 TH's from last year? Or a Bread Box TH? Sorting through stuff to put on eBay just seeing if anyone here wants them first.

Edit: Searching for the Datsun 510 Wagon on eBay, Wheel Collectors decided that they should start selling theirs for $18. 👎

 

[AOS-]

^ Will take that F430 TH.

You are calling me Jon. Why Jon!?

I don't know your name, Jon. What's your name?

So last night I was browsing auctions on eBay and came across a 350Z I need for $3.59 Buy it now with free shipping "Or Best Offer". So I put in $3.00 and hit submit. Just got the counter offer from the seller = $3.57.

Seriously? If you're going to put an item on eBay for "Best Offer" and you're only going to let people have it for 2 cents cheaper, what's the 🤬 point?

Whoever find them, let's buy all of them that we find. Not to hoard, but share within this group.

I just need two, so third one then on, I'll offer them for sale or trade. Same with the Skyline & R5. 👍

There are more people who are not not mentally right than we think. I learned this as soon as I started dealing with the retail public. True story.

 

[SVX]

True, though I'd much rather get a loose version.

Hooray!

Having the Best Offer open tempts buyers. It worked on you, didn't it?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Sure. But when he came back with a smart ass offer I completely lost interest.

 

[a6m5]

Hooray!

That thing is cool. You gonna buy that?

*I saw the price. If you aren't, I'm gonna.

 

[Sonygamer455]

I saw that Track T at Kit Kringle recently. I own that one to.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Made some rounds today. 2 Targets, a Dollar Tree and a Fry's later = not a damn thing.

 

[a6m5]

I ended up picking up a few cars from the seller SVX posted. Dirt cheap pricing + cars you don't see everyday. That Maserati MC12 or whatever, I didn't even know Hot Wheels made one!

Wow. I bought seven cars from him, shipping came to $5.25. I also got 10% discount for ordering more than six cars. 👍👍

Only gas company wins. I don't know if you took the bus, or rode the bike today.

 

[Driving Park]

The semester starts tomorrow, so naturally I hit Wal-Mart and Target. Surprisingly, they both had a lot of good stuff, and I probably ended up with about 30-40 cars total - F12, 918 Spyder, E30 M3, and many other tasty new ones included. 👍

I made some rounds today too. Walmart, Vintage Stock, CVS, Wallgreens, Dollar Tree. No THs or anything, but I found the Lamborghini Decades I've been looking for for awhile. Picked up a few '12 models/variations I didn't have, two A-team vans at CVS, new F12, and some cool late-90s cars I didn't have from Vintage Stock. Might take pictures later or tomorrow. I think it was like 30 cars in total, ish.

 

[a6m5]

I didn't even know that there was a Decades series Lamborghini. Very cool. 👍

Ha, yep, this one: http://www.southtexasdiecast.com/hwguide/lamborghinimurcielagolp6704superveloce.html

As far as I know the only other use of that casting was a yellow one in Speed Machines, but I can't even find that one on ebay.

@RCKakashi14 Nice, that Alfa 155 looks really cool.

I hate how a lot of the sellers that sell for cheap don't ship outside of the States.

Neither. Parents brought me their spare printer today so we ran some errands which ended with a nice pancake breakfast at Dennys.
