Recent Hotwheels scores

I actually picked up a neat error-I found a twin mill with an incomplete casting, part of its fender is missing.... I'll get pics once I figure out what i did with it.

Found the 71 Mustang funny car. This thing is cool. I could be wrong, but I think they've been using the same funny car chassis for 30+ years.

And I bagged 2 TV Batmobilies .

Anybody do customs? I just threw these together

the key is to make sure the wheels and axles fit before screwing stuff up to much. I'll paint them later on maybe

I've given it serious thought.

Can you tell me what year the chevelle ss is in the first pic please

It's actually a Chevrolet SS from Australia.

Ah ha thanks. I couldn't tell on my phone and was trying to Google chevelle hot wheels. Now it makes sense.

Quick question - does anyone have a case from Carney? Or any similar? I have one regular display case from Ikea that's quite full & debating a second one, or one of those cases that mounts on a wall with individual openings for cars.

I have 5 of them in my living room. They are nicely made but be careful hanging them. I put the first one up with a screw gun and over tightened the screw and put a small crack in the back.

My German haul thus far:

(Yes, that is a Dacia Duster)

Finally found KITT today

Dang, I've not Seen those yet.

Watch for Biffs BTTF version of the miyagimobile with a removable pile of poo!

I don't think I posted it here but I found the Toyota p/u from BTTF a few weeks ago from this same movie series, I'm hoping to find the Delorean sometime.

Wow I need that Toyota to go along side my Matchbox 4Runner.

I have yet to see that BTTF yota. I needs it. But i refuse to ebay.

No ebay for me also. Half the fun is the hunt.

Ah ok, I know what you mean, just thought I'd throw that out there.

EXACTLY. I heart the hunt.

Just had a question:

Do your guys collections have a theme or is it just one of each car plus doubles for trades?

I don't really care for the made up cars and tend to only go for the real life modeled ones. As well as the tv/movie themed cars.

I skip the made ups. I generally buy stuff I like, and snake the chase cars in case I feel like trading. I look for errors and stuff too. I generally buy one for me and one for my kid- and maybe more if I know I want to trade them, or in the case of anything 70s japanese, I buy ALL OF THEM.

I collect real cars. I used to collect only mopar about 15 years ago. Let me tell you what wasn't easy.

Remember that cool orange 70 Roadrunner that was out ? I think I bought about 10 of them.

I won't do ebay, but I have bought a few from vendors at car shows - a good source for models a few years old and long out of the stores. Yeah, I may pay $3 instead $1, but I don't care if it's a model I hadn't seen (or only saw here).

Also have little interest in the made-up models.

In reply to Lancer007:

I buy what I like. Not interested in value, I buy rally cars, import cars, cars I've owned before, cars friends own, etc. My collection is mostly rally, import customs, and a Dodge Lil Red Express.

Same here, look for errors, chase, and stuff I like. Found these this morning and BOuGHT them ALL!
