    I found a few of those early 2000's tuner cars that light up, made by kentoys. I have an evo, sti, and supra, all from a time when I did not know the concept of keeping things nice so at one point they fell or got damaged by 4 year old me. the evo is missing the rear wing, exaust tip, and the battery has died, the sti fell off a shelf many years ago, broke one door off (still fits in place), cracked the clear plastic hood, and put a dent in the roof above the right front door, it still lights up though and the supra has a broken door hinge(again door still fits in but falls off at slightest touch) and a missing rear wing, I am not paying $35-$40 for replacement cars atm so anyone know where I could get spoilers?,

    Not really, no. I know it's a Hot Wheels though.

    There are things you should not become an addict and model cars are definitely one of those.

    Looks like you have 2 NSX model cars of 2 different generations. I assume they're Honda badged.

    They're actually Acura badged. Reason for that might be because Hot Wheels is American brand.

    Huh.

    I happen to own plenty of model cars (of multiple sizes), but no pictures yet. One of the model cars was a custom Model X from Hotwheels, like this:

    you only have too many cars when you can say your wall paper is made of boxed 1/64 diecasts.
    Yesterday I went to Walmart and added a few more to the collection, a 50th anniversary reproduction Redline Cougar(staying in box), an 80s Lotus Esprit, a1985 bronco I want to repaint to match my IRL bronco, and a world's smallest Bone Shaker (staying in box). I can't take pictures because my phone is permanently non functional.

    Got a few cars this month, mostly HotWheels and my first three Tomica Limited Vintages, hopefully the first of many.

    Most of these HotWheels are being customised at some point.

    Really happy with the Isuzu, considering it was the cheapest of the three, I didn’t expect it would come in a box like that.

    They already have the 2019 Silverado in the HotWheels catalog, I see.

    I wonder if any of the other Acuras (asides from the NSX, obviously) will get the HotWheels treatment as well.
