Hot Wheels

Mail Call from @tinker_troy ! Thank you for all the extras!

A few of the highlights

 

Oh? Is that so?

Each case has a letter designation lol

 

Some finds from today:

 

Oh lol I don't pay attention that much haha I have yet to see the dirtbikes but it's been a bit since I've went out and looked thou

 

Need that sc300/400

 

@williams63

I was researching the red Jeep CJ-7 that @tinker_troy just sent me and it appears it's from a 5 pack from 2017... which also included this.. thought you would like that!



I would also like to find this 64 Nova Wagon from that set if anyone has one laying around..

 

Yes I have it, I bought that set to get it so I have that nova wagon from it. I’ll have to find it when I get home and send it to you.

 

Oh well that's super awesome of you! But I am glad you have the bug. I rather enjoy finding things I never knew existed HAHA

 

For those curious, I often post the loose vehicles on here and use the right click option to search image with Google which most of the time gives me E b a y listings etc which often helps me determine the year and card number etc of a particular vehicle. I use an Excel spreadsheet to log and track all the cars I have since it's grown to an excessive amount.

 

I’ve been saying I need to do this for a few years now. Use to know what I had now it’s beyond knowing if I have certain cars or not

 

It works for me... it would be nice to develop some sort of app to search photos (like the google searches I do on images I post here) o determine if you have that model/color/version. It would take someone a lot smarter than me to make this though.

 

Yeah a lot smarter than me too.

 

Toyota Soarer, its the JDM version

 

A pleasure trip to HEB

 

Here are some of my recent aquisitions.

I finally found the Hot Wheels Mazda twinpack at Target.


And I don't only focus on imports.

Auto World Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat


And something mundane for many, but exciting for me.

Hobby Japan Honda Civic FL1


Now why would I buy a model of a car that kids on social media would call "regular traffic?"

Well, I own said car in real life.

Please excuse the crap in the background.

And despite the crappy lighting, the color is almost spot on! Besides some minor details, this is almost an exact replica!

 

That's awesome on the matching car!

 

I’ve been looking everywhere for it, Amazon had it for 6.49, but I know it would arrive messed up in a bag.

 

I had the hot wheel redone in actual Inferno Orange Clearcoat Metallic. It came out superb.

 

Have only had one issue with ordering from Amazon. Go for it. You can always return it or dispute it. Most of the time its a private person sending it to you and they package very securely

 

Every time I’ve order a hw from the big A it’s in a bag and the card is jacked up. This was the r32, and the trueno blister was destroyed.
