Well, the title said it. These are my hauls from last week's toy hunting. I found these little treasures from my favorite local hobby shop.
Mostly not my line of collection but, I'd like to add them to my collection XD
Two Ford Bronco by Racing Champions
This is the first to call my attention. I didn't have this red with gold stripes cobra by HW so I was surprised when I saw the price and took it excitedly.
The catch? It has a small paint chip at the back. No wonder they were selling it for a very cheap price. I still decided to get it. Anyway it will still deteriorate... maybe in less or more than a decade? :D
And these little guys made my toy hunting day. I can't even take my eyes off of them even while paying at the counter. My new JEEPS! hahaha! That cereal Wrangler is by Matchbox, the one in the middle is a Jeep by Majorette France, and lastly that small jeep w/ missing roof is a Superfast by Matchbox.
Those treasures above costs 50 bucks or approximately 1.15 USD
I got this Hotwheels Datsun Bluebird 510 from another toy shop, regular price. I'll be using it for a new mod project.
The saleslady from my favorite hobby shop reserved this for me. I guess I just found a new friend.
This Meyers Manx is my only haul today. Oh yeah! this is quite hard to find nowadays ;) This came from Wishlist 5-pack by Hotwheels and I couldn't find it even on ebay. I'm glad to find it locally with a best price! 150 bucks or 3.46 USD.
That's all for now. Been very busy doing stuff including the Gundam O_o
hehe... i know little about Racing Champions brand... i had a Cobra by Hot Wheels with a different deco and color scheme (silver with black/gold lines) but i had to let it go for a little problem in the cast =/... lately Majorette is manufactured in Thailand, i guess is the cost factor, because an original Majorette made in France which is very hard to find, can reach a price of US$12 e/o or more =(... the Datsun and the Buggy are really nice!!!... also the Corn Flakes Jeep by Matchbox... by the way, i’m a jeep and truck lover like you =)
ReplyDeleteP.S. man, i really don’t know what’s happening with the display of my blog in your blog list... i guess it will solve itself, sometimes blogger mess with us LOL =)
Hi again chrisman. thank you for dropping by here again.
ReplyDeleteI can't blame you for the cobra. Hot Wheels sometimes doesn't do good with this casting. even the wheels are sometimes not proportion LOL but still I buy them haha! yeah just got lucky to find one here and for that price I was really lucky. that's my first Majorette France in my collection and hoping to catch more :D wow I look forward to your Jeeps and trucks! I want to have a Kenworth sleeper but when I saw the price on ebay, I closed the browser tab LOL! I know someone here that is into Jeeps too and I really admire his collection.
