Another Haul; Hot Wheels (and a couple trades, too...)

Ignore the price tags as they've been on the packages for a long time (and don't reflect my discount)...

Here goes:

First up, two possible traders along with two keepers. I'm willing to trade one of the Stratos' and one of the CX4's. Which CX4 depends on the trade.

These guys got bought for a couple reasons. The 308 because it's got a metal chassis and has a 1977 stamp on it. Ten years later, the Talbot is stamped 1987 and also has a metal chassis. The 3-Window is 1979 stamped and metal. While none of those three are particularly special, they were special enough.

Here's some #$kaybait in purple along with some other porn in purple.

This? Because stupid reasons. I wanted a Hummer, the Pro Stock fell off the rack and hit me in the foot all like, "Admit you want me, asshole." So I bought it. The GT Concept because I'm a Mustang nut, particularly any casting of the S197. Do I need to explain why the MK III? I thought not.

There you go, Opponauts, my end of week splurge (which will be added to throughout the week, doubtless).

DISCUSSION (12)

I would love that 308 and a CX4 (and that Stratos but Dinger beat me to it)! Why do you get all the cool ones up in Canada!

These guys who run the hobby shop I tend to buy at, they buy in bulk - estate sales, storage auctions, auction auctions, and just keep them in boxes and boxes. This means there's some really great stuff and a lot of stuff that is of no interest to me.

That said, I still check the racks at department stores and such when I'm out with the wife. While we do get some stuff you guys don't seem to get as much of, it tends to work out worse for us with you getting much more in total.

The 308 is a no trader, sadly. And yeah, the Stratos is gone but if I keep this yeller one, I have a plain red one at home which I might trade - the offer would have to be pretty good. I've already sent off two or three Stratos' to other Oppo's (they're pretty common up here). Make an offer? I'm really trying to collect Japanese cars, the more awesome the betterer.

As for one of the CX4's; trade is yes. What'cha got?

You sent me one of those Stratos! I'll have to check if it is a plain red one or not. If not, I have a Yellow or Black Toyota 2000GT

Just made this post too. What looks good to you?
