My new cars! Sorry for the blurry shots, I used my iPad Cars from top left clockwise: Matchbox 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, Hotwheels Mazda REPU, Hotwheels VW Golf MK2, Hotwheels Corvette Grand Sport, Hotwheels Mercedes AMG GT Hotwheels Porsche Cayman S and Audi R8 Matchbox Mercedes Benz CLS500 and Lotus Exige S 'Gateway Global' Porsche 911 996 and unknown company Mercedes Benz A-Class Unknown company Lexus RX300 and Toyota Land Cruiser Matchbox Porsche 928, Model A Ford and Ford Capri Cost: 928, Model A, Cayman, R8, CLS, Lotus £5 (total) , 911, Lexus and Toyota £2 each , Ford Capri £2.50 Does anyone have any idea what model company made this? It's got a little 'h' next to the model name (on the Toyota, Lexus and A-Class)
Stop buying overpriced cars from WHSmith. Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars should cost ~£1.25 Hongwell/Cararama
Can confirm. I have some of their 1:87 toycars, a smaller version of that A-Class included. By the way, I spent my last day of vacation reordering my models...
I know, however there are not really any good cheap stores around and I had been wanting to get the Golf for ages.
Bit of a bump but I need opinions, I have an old revell 1967 Chevelle 1/25 model kit that was given to me, opened and unassembled with some missing pieces. I was thinking if enough of it is there to do ether a beater or make the roadcutter from wreckfest, if a lot of it is missing I might be able to cut it up as an unfinished restoration, thoughts?
Go for it --- Post updated --- This is where i store all of my hotwheels. I put my 1/36 scales on my window(pretty creative if i say so myself) Some 1/24's and a Subaru section under my monitor. This matchbox mustang my friend gave to me. Its pretty old as its been sitting in his grandpas house for quite some time forgotten about. My favorite section: My tomicas. The black boxes are the premium tomicas while the others are just either dream tomicas or regular tomicas. More tomicas with 3 Bbuargo 1/36's in their display cases along with Bburago's 1/43 ferrari set. Under my desk I have some of my 1/18's down there along with 2 other 1/24s.
I have to 3d print some parts for the chevele to finish it, I clearcoated a 1974 firebird model, next time I get to work on it I have to put a bird on the hood then maybe go over it again with more clear, I also got a large assortment of matchbox cars to use as donors for hot wheels customs, so far I wheel-swapped a S10 blazer with nicer rims from the matchbox, I plan on lifting a dodge Lil red express and giving it suspension using paper clips, and I am taking an old broken semi and combining it with the left over parts from the donor cars to make a mad max style semi
They had a Porsche 917 LH in white, a Focus RS in one of those terrible paint jobs, an RX-7, and a custom '07 mustang. But i already have the 917 in a blue, which looks better in my opinion, RS was too horrendous looking with that paint job, RX-7 the color was a meh green, and the mustang was really boring looking. Hopefully when my local walmart restocks the hotwheels, it will have a better selection.
