State of the Display

How do you all display your Mini GTs?

What cases or displays are tried, tested and durable?

I love these box cases, but they aren’t easy to put together, and require a lot of patience. They are compact and don’t have screws, so that adds to the clean and crisp look. If you are someone who like to keep swapping the cars in the display, then you need to be careful while re-opening these case as the mechanism used is to click / snap into the rivets and not magnets.

The blister cases are from Made by Dots. Simply love it!Once you build the first one, then it’s a breeze to do the rest. The first one is a bit of a challenge. The magnetic open/close makes it very easy to switch out the blister pack inside.

Some tips for acrylic cases, if the paper doesn’t peel easily, use a wet cloth soaked in warm soap water to dab at the edges. They release the adhesive and the paper is easier to remove.

P.S. If someone wants to help me out with a Rexy 77, that would be great 🙏

One of my best hauls from 🟨

I had almost given up on getting the cars from the recent MBX case as they weren’t available as singles, many were selling it bundled either at store or on groups, but 🟨 came through for me!

I’m liking MBX more and more when compared to Hot Wheels.

Waiting for a few display cases to unbox the boxed versions. Sorry for the bad quality of the second image.

Radical Trio completed 👑

Finally managed to get all 3 of the variants. Its so good to see matchbox doing some different castings which are fun to collect.

Welcoming Skeleton Rexy to the family!

This is the first Mini GT in my collection, and now on the hunt for the earlier releases of Rexy and Roxy. Tried to do the heart arrangement as best as I could.

P.S. I know a white background would look better, but photo editing isn't my forte.

Ordered on 16th and delivered on 18th (today), KnD has been quite prompt!

The hunt never stops.

My second treasure hunt (first was the dump truck) and so stoked as I never expected it to be easily available on the 🟨 app. Recently I was considering pulling the trigger on one of the e-commerce websites where they had bundled this TH with other cars for about 1100/-.

Now only a STH is left!

Added some Porsche to my collection.

I really like the Porsche line-up from Hot Wheels and have been slowly building my collection. Really enjoying searching for good deals on the earlier releases, sometimes overpaying for starting out too late.

The Carrera 2.7 Super Treasure Hunt and the Elite 64 PlayStation Porsche are on my wishlist for this year.

Share your Porsche collection too!!

Uncarded the Kick Sauber F1 Mainline today.

It’s such a beautiful car and drives really well on the Hot Wheels track sets.

Sunday pickings at the local store!!

Was surprised to find these at a local store.

The painting on the La Troca is superb. Love the two dogs sitting in the boot of the Volvo.

Slowly beginning to collect the MBX Porsches.

Count myself lucky! Never expected to find these in wild. May use the extras for getting some of the missing stuff later!
