eBay Hot Wheels loots

Here are some loots from eBAY. Each HW cost me USD$0.95, roughly BND$1.30. That is the good part, the bad part is the total cost of the shipping for all 4 items below cost me USD$11.00. At todays rate, it will be around BND$13.00. If you do the maths, each car cost me BND$4.50++. All of them from U.S.

Tomica Racing Transporter

One of my TOMICA collections from TAKARATOMY. This is TOMICA Racing Transporter. Not sure whether the real thing does exists but nevertheless, the model itself is quite good looking.

HotWheels Speed Machine McLaren F1

Did anyone manage to grab this cool HOTWHEELS from HUAHO recently? I was so surprised to see a McLaren F1 GTR model in HotWheels size! Immediately grab it and proceed to cashier. Cost only $7.90! Usually McLaren F1 model are available in those hi-end 1:43 or 1:18 model.




Here is the picture of the real thing


Here is the real deal in video! Listen to the engine and gearbox!!!
(must watch!)

More Porsche models! These two shown here are from HotWheels and I ordered them online.

This is Porsche 959. One of the supercar from Porsche during the 80s. This one here is Valentine's version from Hotwheels



Another great supercar from Porsche, the Carrera GT

Maisto Porsche

More posts for Porsche models! Here are two models from Maisto. Check it out

Porsche 356. The detail and quality is not as good as the other brand that I had collected but for $2.50 I am not complaining....



NFS Maisto Porsche 911 Turbo! I missed out on this one when HuaHo first released and I thought I will never be able to get it, and that was last year! This year when I visited Manggis HuaHo I found out they restock this model again. Without question I just snapped the model.



*The next few posts will concentrate more on my Porsche 1:64 models!

Matchbox Porsche

I had been collecting lots of car model from Porsche ever since I got my car this year in January. I can't get enough of their brand power. Here and next few posts I will be concentrating a lot of their small or large scale models.

Here are some 1:63 models from Matchbox

Porsche 911 GT3



997 Porsche 911 Cabriolet



Porsche 914 (Budget Porsche during the 70s)

Cars from Disney

Just acquired this when I was in Miri a few weeks ago. This is another character from the hit cartoon CARS from Disney Pixar. I had always collect all the CARS character ever since it were introduced together with the movie but recently my mood had already die down a bit on them.

This character here is called Antonio Velloce Eccellente and if I can recall he is the one that appeared in the cartoon together with Ferrari F430 Michael Schumacher near the ending of the show (correct me if I am wrong!). Antonio itself is Maserati Quattroporte. One of the model from Maserati. Those who doesn't know, Maserati is owned by Ferrari.

These are not cheap compare to HOTWHEELS, but they are very detailed!



This particular model come with "moving" eye. Personal opinion, I would preferred the decal eye as it is more realistic.


Here is the actual Maserati Quattroporte
Quattroporte in Italian means "Four Doors"

Siku Porsche 911

I am an avid 1:64 collectors for quite sometime and never heard of SIKU brand before. I came across this brand when I was in HK International Airport. I was scouting for some hobby stuff and this little green Porsche caught my eye! As a hardcore fans of Porsche, immediately put it in my basket and check out at cashier. The item is HKD45.00 which converted to almost BND$10.00!!! Its not cheap but to me its kinda rare so I just bought it anyway.

The vehicle is a Porsche 911 (997), not only the colour caught my attention, the car itself caught my attention too. It is a 911 that has a full Porsche Cup bodykit fitted! Quite rare for a scale 1:64 Porsche 911.

Tomica Nissan 370Z

Just acquired this new released Tomica Nissan 370z. Did some background with Majorette Car Showroom that I bought recently.

Majorette - Car Showroom

I bought this recently at a local department store. I want to use this as a background for my future 1:64 photography. Check it out!

It cost only BND$16~



There are a few more types to choose but I personally prefer the Car showroom


It comes with accessories very identical to Tomica, too bad they are not sharable


The building is made of light plastic with nicely painted effect to stimulate a proper car showroom


Here is the free Mercedes Benz A Class that comes with the set
