A Super Chase has eluded me for years...until now! Walked in on a huge fresh restock of Power Grabs, peered back, and there she was. SUPER happy to finally find one and a really cool one to boot! Happy hunting everyone βοΈ
From a 2002 Hot Wheels 'Troy Lee Designs' 100% set, absolutely stunning! 100% was one of HW's first higher end collectible series and the quality was top-notch. Very happy to add this beauty to the collection π
Not even falling for the hype, just truly impressed with how good this one is! π
I don't pick up many JLs, but anything Van related is automatically coming home with me. I grabbed both without hesitation, and thought "man, this all white set is really good!"
Sure enough, I get home and find out Candy Van is supposed to be purple...I'm pretty sure this is my first White Lightning in the wild and I didn't even realize it! And I couldn't have asked for a better one.
This is why I remind everyone to collect what you like and luck will find its way to you! An honorable mention for the super clean chrome Shelby set π
Finding anything new recently has been a challenge, but I stumbled across a mostly fresh K & L restock yesterday and walked away with over 20 cars! No THs or Supers, but finally finding the WRX and R34 was a better surprise anyway. Here's just a few of my favorites.
Y'all can keep your Supers and Chases; I'll take a haul like this over one of those any day π€
Exactly why I love Matchbox; always a wildly good variety. Super hard to pick a favorite, but the Unimog is so rad.
Honestly for me, the Porsche is by far the best car of the Vintage Racing set. The details and casting are absolutely perfect!
Put this together casually over several nights and it's finally finished. Looks fantastic and such a fun build! Hopefully HW keeps these Brick Shop releases coming π₯
Found this for only $5 at my local auto swap meet and had to have it! Filled the shelves with books/magazines for a backdrop, and placed some basics I had laying around on the trim. I still can't believe how perfect the spacing is!
Was lucky enough to find these minty blue card Ferraris at my local auto swap meet, $5 for all 3! I love finding cars from my childhood that I was never able to get when they were originally released. The 355 Challenge is by far my favorite; we need a 355 re-tool ASAP!
After being extremely lucky enough to find the gold chase in the wild, I knew I had its First Edition brother tucked away in my collection. Same car, same series, but almost a ten year release difference! Now I just need the silver/ZAMAC one to complete the trio!
Happy collecting everyone βοΈ
After never finding an all-black chase, and giving up hope on ever finding a gold one, that changed today. SO hyped! Besides the M3, this is the best one IMO
Well, there goes my luck for the next few months π happy hunting everyone!
I remember watching F&F(4) for the first time, seeing Han's C10, and instantly thinking, "man, someone needs to make a diecast of that". Over 15 years later, here we are!
Easily in my top 5 new models of the year; thoughts?
