I'll start the new one off with what I just bought.

They had the 90210 65 Mustang as well but I decided not to. I really liked the Bronco from Zoolander.

Just picked these up tonight. Went to Walmart to return something and stopped by the Hot Wheels aisle. Glad I did because I love the Porsche.

I picked up a VW Drag bus color changer and dipped it under warm water and dried it off. Initially it turned white but then changed to a mellow yellow color. I wasn't overly thrilled with the pukish green color.

nobody was happy with that version since it was not a solid metal casting like the prior ones, the ONLY thing worth a darn on that casting is the wheels for swapping.

Here is a haul of 2015s I found at Walmart. The GTO, Chevelle and F150 are really nice castings. I wish Mattell didnt ruin the Viper's front lip, but I bought it anyway as it is a nice looking car otherwise.

And then at a small pharmacy that only stocks 5 cars next to cheap garbage toys I found the Skyline and Greenwood Vette. Although it's not a Super, the Greenwood really is a nice casting.

And finally the 1979 Ford F150 Walmart Edition special ordered from EBay. Going to be using this for a custom Bigfoot monster truck diecast.

Nice finds! The roadster was a ZAMAC before they were called ZAMAC and the Ferrari was hard to find and I think that was the only year they made that version as it's so small it's a choke hazard to kids. So you won't see that on the blue cards ever again.

PS I want Hogwarts train for myself!! Lol

Here is neat Batman variation, this casting actually was first released under the Matchbox label a couple years ago.

Now it has crossed over into the Hot Wheels brand name.

Finally, I have something to post in here! lol But I've cut wayyy back on hunting lately.
I found out that a Walmart Neighborhood Market was being built about 25 minutes away from me and that today was their grand opening. So after work I took a quick drive down there and found that the Hot Wheels had been untouched. All 72 E-case cars still hanging on the pegs. One of the managers was walking by so I asked her if there were any others in the store (as sometimes they'll put a small bin up near customer service or past the registers at the NMs) but she said they only got the single case for their opening. No worries, I am quite pleased with the haul. The Mustangs and McLarens are sweet in person! I hope to find the Mustang Super somewhere now after seeing the mainline.

No Supers, the VW is the RegTH:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7463/16337174755_915cb09399_b.jpg

I'm still waiting for my Walmart to put out their bin, I found out they have one via the Telxon. But since they've had it for about a week and it hasn't been put out yet it makes me think it might be marked with a future week's label and that it's an E case bin, which means we missed D case here. Just waiting patiently to see...

On another note, I traded a few cars and am now down to missing only one Veyron to complete the mainline releases, the Gray/Blue with 10SP wheels:

That's funny because I've also cut way back since there has been nothing. There's an old Publix that turned into a furniture store for the past several years that suddenly I see it is a WalMart neighborhood grocery as I drove past tonight!

Going to check it out for HW and also swing by Target for the first time in a month.

Dug out this older Puerto Rico Exclusive to show a new collector. These came out in 1999 iirc. You could only buy them in PR but lucky for me one of my buddies was from there and picked several up for me back then.

Happens to be one of my favorite castings too. The "TailDragger"

Here's my comic shop haul from somewhere in last November. It was pretty epic. I got all of these for $35. While that sounds like a deal, it's very much not. The comic shop closed and this was the bone picking from a going out of business sale. I'd much rather not have these cars and just be able to visit that shop every weekend.

You were awesome, Kaboom Comics. I'll miss you.

wow that is a great score!! Those classics series were a hot item back in the day. All metal top and bottom and nice wheels too. They did several "Chase" cars in that series too! The Classics cost about $4 or $5 each when new, it was in their premium line. I have a TON of extras if you ever want to trade. Looks like there is an Olds 442 Treasure hunt in there too?

Here's today's Walmart haul and with my opinions of them. Sorry if it looks a little similar to JamieH's recent haul.

13378

The Mini van is really cool. It is so odd but so perfect in it's own way, even though I wish the chassis wasn't yellow. It just makes you smile. I'll probably end up buying at least one more to repaint and wheel swap. It would look nice in a race themed livery to match the other hot wheels Mini castings or in a delivery/shop truck theme. It's the perfect casting for customizers to go nuts on, in my opinion. I just picture this van delivering parts to the race team for the Mini and Mini Countryman Rally Hot Wheels.

The 2015 Mustang is well done, but is lacking tampo detail and nicer looking wheels (not black).

I would have preferred Ken Block's Fiesta livery but this one will do. A lot of details in the body.

The Civic is just a timeless classic with tolerable tampos and the Ferrari is extremely well done with its logos/tampos and winglets over the rear fenders.

Can't wait to get my hands on that Boss 302 and 71 El Camino.

Phatmiata
02-02-2015, 10:21 AM
that Austin/Morris Mini Van started life as an Matchbox casting IIRC? I have some here at my house but I have yet to find the Hot Wheels version to compare.

Here is the MatchBox version

Went out for some Valentine's Day shopping and had a successful haul at Toys R Us and Target. (Got some gifts for the wife too :D )

13404


Past trips to TRU I passed on the "Back on the Map" Mia and Tia CARS set. It was still there today so I pulled the trigger. It goes well with the other Mia and Tia Cars sets I have.

A bit bummed that the Boss 302 wasn't there but was happy the S2K, VW and Ford GT were. Cool additions to the collection. Not too impressed with the color of the Hurst Olds so I left that on the pegs.

I compared the S2K to the Evasive S2K castings and am curious as to why they took off the Honda "H" logo on the trunk in the Cool Classics S2K. The Evasive S2K casting has a raised "H" back there.

I've left the Mad Manga on the pegs time and again because of how wild/odd it is. But today its JDM-ness just spoke to me. Out of the package it is really cool casting especially knowing that it's actually a real life creation and not a HW fantasy car.

The Datsun wagon....one can never have too many Datsun wagons, especially when they're .$.79

Funny thing though is that the first movie was set in 1985, yet this truck is an 87. Go figure. And you do see the truck in the first movie. It's very brief at the beginning and then again at the end.

So mad at myself for not buying the multi-car pack that had this rx-7 in it last week at Target.

Cannot wait for the yellow Datsun. Love that old school Datsun logo and livery.

Yeah, the Jet Threat is the TH, it's terrible. The 599xx was D and E case, probably won't see that in F case/KDay. The white RX7 is F case and should be in the KDay boxes. Then the yellow Datsun 620 is one of the Kmart exclusive colors. There's a nice dark blue NSX concept car and then the VW Caddy.

Could also dye the paint, I've seen that done on some cars but haven't tried it myself yet. Keeps the tampos in place but recolors the car.

thing is I really like the deco so I'd have to use some tape to mask over it all and I'm sure I'd end up with a patchy finish. I'm sure it will be repainted dark blue at some point I think if they have learned anything its that that mold is a gold mine for them.

For Transformers and plastic toys you...

1: Disassemble.
2: clean off the mold release. You very likely don't need to do this for Hot Wheels. You might give a test car a very quick dip in an acetone bath. Don't rub afterwards or the tampos will rub off. And this acetone bit is just conjecture.
3: Mix up a fairly strong solution of RITE dye.
4: Boil your toy in the dye.
5: Let it sit in the dye overnight.
6: Clean off the toy.

My local Walmart received a 288ct E case minibin a while back but it was free of ZAMACs or Supers, they've gotten these before so I figured a large bin wasn't far behind. Fast forward three weeks to yesterday and there was the large bin in all its unopened glory. The manager popped the lid and said I could go through it, but to please leave anything I didn't buy in the cases, no problem:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7300/16403529040_7c5388ba80_b.jpg

These bins have 708 pcs as the bottom of the bin has a ton of 5 packs:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7409/16564569566_668bbb490a_c.jpg

And since I already had almost everything I wanted from E case, I was hunting for ZAMACs and any Supers. Out of the 9 cases (and 3 case codes) there were two Supers, but NO ZAMACs! Where are the ZAMACs?!!

Neat color variation though:

Check your Krogers/Fred Meyers, they're getting 2015 B cases (Rrroadster Super), 2014 E cases (red '07 Mustang Super), and 2014 Q cases (DATSUN WAGON!!!) in the 4-sided shippers.

My local Kroger got a 4-sided shipper in over the weekend, it looked badly picked over when I found it today but maybe it was just a kid because there was a Super Rrroadster (and five THs) hiding in there:

Here are the latest hauls for me.

I live about a half hour from the Fisher Price company and factory store so my wife and I stopped by there looking for baby things. They had plenty of cars with the candy maker logos on them for $3.50. Had to grab em. Even though I hate the logos I love all the castings. Maybe I'll repaint em one day? The Ferrari is so cool. Also from Fisher Price dump bin came the Datsun wagon(Duh!), 24/7, and red 2015 mustang which is much nicer than the blue one.

Lamborghini I found at a Family Dollar trip; love the color scheme w/ red interior and accents.

Mazda2 from matchbox was an eBay buy (wife used to have a 2).

Sorry for sideways photos :(

Mattel UK are doing another car exclusive again this time a black car rather then gold.

http://www.hotwheels.com/en-gb/exclusivecar.html

Its says exclusive however I noticed over on T-Hunted a very similar car is in a 5 pack maybe with a slightly different set of paint apps but otherwise the same.

I've seen off for mine anyway was its only 5 cards needed. I might try and score more but its 1 per house hold.

Did pick up the first 6 of the 2015 Series (21 total this year) the other day, split it with another collector there since there were two of each car:

Check your Walmart "Easter Trains", it's a large green Easter display with multiple bins of toys and such (either in toys, electronics, or near the entrances), they are getting mainline Hot Wheels from last year but these cases also contain two of the Kroger Mission Madness releases, the Viper and Yellow Bone Shaker. Some are finding 0-2 $uper Nova Wagons as well, I found one:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7635/16777222171_68d69828a0_c.jpg

Found these two at Target and had to have them:

Mail call brought my mail-in El Camino from KDay and a runner up prize from an IG contest:

It also brought some M&M related goodies:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7616/16590778318_66abddb3cc_c.jpg

And some unnamed help brought in my second all OH5 Datsun Wagon. I was ecstatic at having one, two is just nuts.
For anyone who is wondering, there was apparently a very short run of these produced with OH5 wheels (they're not the correct wheels for this release of the Wagon, supposed to be MC5) and so far less than a dozen have been posted, well that I've seen anyway. But a variation this small on a popular casting creates a serious demand, one sold on evilBay for over $100! However, these are staying with me!

"Several" leads me to believe either really fresh inventory or you saw a lot of the mainlines. Which one did you see, the one on the left (mainline) or the one on the right ($uper)? In this case the card art is immediately noticeable as different, as well as the wheels and tires. You should never leave a $uper behind though! Well that is unless you're just really nice. :)

On Saturday my local Target finally restocked after almost 3 months of not getting any new inventory and at the end only having 6 or 7 cars hanging on the pegs. It took some talking to a couple managers to get them to realize that their digital inventory showed 1400+ cars but they had very little on the pegs and nothing in the back. Anyway, they received eight cases total: five A cases and three F cases and I was lucky to get to open them all. As I'm still missing a Super Mooneyes Van I popped the F cases first, no Super or TH to be found and no errors, but no big deal. On to the A cases, all were factory sealed, the first four all had not one, but two Chicane RegTHs inside and no Supers, the final case had one Kool Kombi Super and one Chicane RegTH. Also had no errors but they did net five more Datsun Wagons to play with. I found it highly irregular for the cases to each have two RegTHs, especially in four cases in a row, but who knows anymore. Regardless, one Super (and a few more of my favorite wagons) coming from the restock was plenty to make me happy.

One of my local Walmarts put out two minibins today:

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7621/16980738712_319b2143ca_c.jpg

I asked the lady if I could unbox them and she was all too happy to let me have at it. No ZAMACs (that's ok, scored them in a 9-case bin last week, but no Supers there), no errors or variations, but I did get a Super Mastretta (first Super ever found in a minibin for me!) and some more Datsun Wagons.

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7643/16774693507_6d29feae95_c.jpg

So, ran into one of those super obsessive collectors in Wal-Mart yesterday. What a "lovely" individual, used his family to block off the pegs and had an entire box of the mystery cars in his cart just so no one else could look through it until he had. When asked if I could look through them, he said no, that he was and to stay out of his "private cart."

A few more words were exchanged (over less than a minute) and I realized I needed to walk away before head hippo escalated things too far for his own good, and likely my own. I would've liked to have tried reason with him, but I was carrying and he quickly got more defensive and aggressive. It's just sad that he had reasoned what he was doing was acceptable behavior.

I couldn't have a greater distaste for such collectors at this point.

Sigh... anyways, here's what I've picked up recently.

JamieH
04-04-2015, 03:37 AM
A few things. Before the incident at the pegs I was talking to him at a dump bin and he told me he had been at it for 30 years. That he focuses mostly on castings based on real cars while his wife likes the fantasy castings. That his favorite castings was the Purple Passion and that he had X number of versions of the total number of the PP versions (I can't remember exactly what he said it was, hell he may have been wrong and I still wouldn't know). He also mentioned how another guy had already hit the store and had supposedly left him some stuff hidden in the dump bin. But the first thing he said to me? After I had approached the dump bin and made it obvious I was about to start looking through it, he let me know how he was going through one section of it, and did so in a manner like he wanted me to stay out of his way until he was done.

Thinking about it, I think I may have seen him before at a K-Day in that city where he had two cases in tow. That, or it was another very large guy like him that drove a clapped out poorly modded 80's S-10.

Granted, he could be both. Doesn't really matter to me. Scalpers and excessive/obsessive collectors might as well be one and the same. They create the same problems and both suffer from a severe case of entitlement.

RotorNutFD3S
04-04-2015, 04:15 PM
That sucks, I do not like people like that at all. There's a guy I randomly see at my local Walmart who earlier this year walked up to me out of the blue and told me that I might as well give up in this area because he has it on lockdown. I just walked away without saying anything but he hasn't beaten me to a case or bin yet, guess he expected me to just give up that easily. With the most recent bin he walked up just as another collector and I had finished going through it. The look on his face...

The other collector however is a very nice older gentleman, he comes in with a notebook/checklist and buys three of each car for his grandsons and I've helped him sort and find what he needs before. He's just a genuinely nice guy.

A friend of mine surprised me with this loose RLC Cobra but I'm not a fan of Neo Classic wheels so I felt a Real Rider swap was in order. I used the 5-spokes because they remind me of a popular Mustang wheel so it was somewhat fitting and I used some redline tires because it's an RLC car. Also decided to "chrome" the rollbar.

Here is the latest haul from TRU.

They had a decent stock of new Matchbox but only one that I liked enough to grab was the Silverado.

The 5 packs were on sale for $3 so I decided it was worth it for the "Exotics" pack that I've contemplated buying numerous times. I especially like the VW and Lambo castings from this pack.

The HW Cool Classics Mustang was a no-brainer and of course, had to get a Monster Jam truck. This one has a rubber Mohawk!

My RLC membership worked!!!!

I ordered within the first couple seconds of this being available. The cars were still there 5 minutes after I finished checking out. Not sure why I got high numbers, or why there's such a spread. But as numbers go, I'm pretty happy with #1002. 1001 or 1028 would have been fine too.

The Add To Cart was still active at 10:07 my time. It died before the clock hit 10:08.

I never get the good stuff because I'm always on via phone and it drops Internet like you wouldn't believe.

I very much want those. Bad.

That's a nice looking set, good looking cars and cards, I'm kinda glad I'm not into these Hot Wheels, like I once was into Action Figures and Comics, I can see how addicting and expensive they could be!

On the older die casts from the 60's and 70's they actually grade them much like comics, I don't mess with the old stuff, too much money.

Don't blame you, comics got way too expensive and action figures exploded, too many to keep up with, so I quit. On a side note I sent you a PM on the seat belt trim you asked about.

I collect a ton of vintage transformers and I feel similarly. Depending on the character and rarity TF's can range from a few $ a pop to 4 digits. Typically the higher end is down to AFA grading and to me AFA grading is insane. Your paying a 3rd party to give it some value and seal it in a UV proof box permanently and they are not cheap. I tried telling a guy that AFA'ing his Pepsi prime was pointless given the UV damage on the trailer and how it was not MISB only MIB. Guy wanted to do it any way for the perceived increase in value.

Now for the leaked prototypes I get why its nice to have some paper work and a nice box (like the G2 Stunicons that recently went for around $26, 815 for the set) EBAYLINK (http://www.ebay.com/itm/171371133142?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1431.l2649) but for fairly common toys I like to be able to actually touch them.

I picked up a red Datsun 620 at Autozone yesterday and it had the DATSUN on the tailgate in black. I love how plain it looks.

There so far has only been 1 cast made (NA body style) but quite a few color variants. Most of them have too many tampos for my taste.

I have been "Slowly" pulling out all of my old Transformers from childhood and giving some to my 2 sons. They are old enough to be gentle to them and not bust them up too bad. I was planning just to sell them all since my kids have too many toys already, but when the knockoffs started showing up on eBay the values on the originals took a dive so I figured might as well just give them to the kids to enjoy.

Ramjet! My favorite seeker.

Decepticon Clones! Nice. Those are a bit rare.

Slugfest is not so common. He's not had a re-release I don't think. Overkill was released once as an SDCC bot.

Grimmy looks nice. Mine doesn't have much chrome left.

Both Jumpstarters!! Awesome. Since reading Last Stand of the Wreckers, I've really grown fond of those two.

You didn't use the robot points for mail away bots years ago?!

No I kept everything, I would cut out the points and code reader cards, still have them all. I think I have the instructions somewhere as well. I even found an old catalog that shows them all.

Thanks for the link and info, so the colors of these cars the color of the plastic they are molded from? If hot Wheels will not issue more, can they be painted over and look good?

Wow your toys really did well to look that good and they all seem to have kept most of their accessory's. I have a soft spot pounce and wingspan I always thought the idea was awesome. I'll have to take out my boxed collection some day. Its gotten to the point that I simply dont know how much I have boxed up I know I cant display it all.

They are all diecast, and painted, some of the guys here like to customize them and paint them.

If you are looking for an R2-Limited to match you rcar then look for some Tomy cars, they made a lot of 1/64 scale cars (same size as Hot Wheels) in different colors, BRG, 93LE, R2-Limited, , Classic Red, Yellow, B2-Limited etc etc

I started collecting my transformers in my mid teens, and put them all in a storage box back in 1991 when I signed up into the Military, they have seen the outside of the box maybe twice since then? sidding in the A/C at my folks house until I got married and came back for them all. They are still in the box, felt bad so a few have been giving to the boys.

So now my kids are playing with, Soundwave, StarScream, Blaster, Powerglide, Cosmos, Grimlock, and some of the tapes.

Still plenty left in my storage box though, and not showing is my personal favorite Skyfire/Jetfire, that one I will keep for myself, its really good condition for its age since I was very careful with all the toys, and most sat on a shelf for display.
