The OFFICIAL "what I picked up today"

[iamsuperdan]

As requested...


Lexus LS600hL: detailing is really impressive on this one.




Infiniti Q45: always liked these old odd looking Infinitis.






And somethingI have never heard of, a Mitsubishi FTO. Look at those 90s wheels!





A London Balck Cab, which I think are awesome. I wonder why the Black Cab on the box is red though. This is an Aoshimi kit.




Here's a real weird one. Trumpeter's version of the 1978 Monte Carlo. Lots of details, including a working susepnsion and steering, plus an opening trunk.





Finally, something out of my usual comfort zone, but I think it's cool. A 1946 Sedan Delivery. THe Galaxie models are excellent in terms of detailing and quality. Good value.

By no means a serious collector, I have a collection which I'm happy with. I add to it constantly.
Here's my latest finds along with a calender of Route 66.

Sorry I missed this earlier. Sent you a PM

My car's mini-me

Awesome!

[blackwabbit]

Has anyone else seen this variation? Looks like its grey on silver?

My car's mini-me::

I love it! I thought I was the only one that collected the model versions of all my cars past and present.

I have this, but I got this one...

[blackwabbit]

Yeah I have those as well, just wondering if anyone had seen any other colors variations or maybe its a error??

Infiniti Q45: always liked these old odd looking Infinitis.

Good haul, love the Infiniti. That's my favorite Infiniti of all their vehicles.
Surprised you're never herd of the FTO, it was a bit of a low cost performer on the original Gran Turismo I believe and many North Americans got to know them then. Side note, I used to love three spoke rims, now I think only Saab can pull them off, and maybe that FTO.

[iamsuperdan]

Mitsubishi have never really been on my radar, so with the exception of a few models, I know nothing about them. I've been gathering pics of the FTO so I can detail the kit correctly. Seems like an interesting car. Finding pics of unmodified ones though is proving to be a challenge!

And I agree, that original Q45 was a really nice car. Many thought it was weird looking. I still think it looks good.

Good observation

[BeetleGpx]

Just restarting my collection with some walmart grabs:
Brown Type 181
Green Brasilia
Red flamed Volksrod

Gotta find a 1/24 RSi in silver to go with my 1/24 yellow new beetle, for the "mini versions of my old cars" shelf. No I didn't own an RSi, we cloned the body from one that was at the dealer I worked for.

[iamsuperdan]

Just had these delivered today. At $2 each, can't go wrong!

Although, with the slant nose 911, the engine is completely molded in chromed plastic! Time to strip that entire thing!


Also picked up a Bullitt Mustang. Always liked this car.


It's not a model, at it probably belongs in the RC forum, but I'll put it here anyway.

Carisma M14 GTI! 1/14 scale RTR car, includes all batteries. Looks pretty good. Batteries charging now for fun times later.

[iamsuperdan]

Happy times!

FedEx guy delivered the above this morning, the following just arrived through the mail.

Classic late 90s Tamiya 996 Carrera


And something I'm quite excited by...

ESCI Lamborghini Diablo, circa 1992
And it's complete, still in the packaging!

[zerind]

Not even out of the packaging yet but couldn't wait to catch a glimpse before I take them home
