Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
Those are cool. I like off-brand stuff, even though they are more cheaply made. What I like is they are '70s square bodies and not '80s. I've been wanting one of those with the camper. Now, and off-brand that is better quality than Hot Wheels is Tomica. They made a few versions of '70s Stepsides that are killer. Rubber tires, opening doors and hood,and just very high quality. They are who make or made Johnny Lightnings for who ever brought them back. I think it was Topper Toys who made the original ones to compete with Mattel

The next Hot Wheels Silverado coming out. Unfortunately, this one is a Toys R Us exclusive. It's part of a promotion where you can send in 20 card backs to receive a special car and the stores will have special cases for the promotion containing exclusive colors of 3 different cars. This is one of those exclusives. My Toys R Us is next to worthless, so I'll probably never see this one on the pegs. I never saw last summer's exclusives. I'll have to resort to eBay I'm sure.

Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
I have some serious gaps in my collection. You have none
|
Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
I actually have 4 gaps in my carded collection and 5 gaps in my loose collection of these. A friend came over with his collection so we could get them all together. I'm missing the expensive ones: Military Rods, Fire Rods and the upcoming 2015 Redline Club truck (the Spectraflame brown 4x4) that actually hasn't even been released yet. I don't have the white Fram truck yet, but I have a couple coming. I have the green Redline Club truck on a card, but not loose. So, to fill in the holes in both my loose and carded collections, I'm looking at a minimum of $800. Yeah, it ain't happenin' anytime soon.

Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
Killer collection 1badgmc. I'm sure by now you have the new RLC 4x4, I have 2. I have all but the 3 spendy ones, Military, Fire & Lime Green. Military just sold for over $300 on eBay, second one in as many months. Had a chance to buy all 3 about 2 years ago for $200 but thought that was crazy...who's the crazy one now! I painted one that looked like the green one but was candy gold. I sold it a long time ago, wished I hadn't. I'll do more eventually just have to be healthy. I made up vector files of the fire, lime green and the new black 4x4. I want to do some stock color trucks with the same trim as the black one, red. yellow, blue. orange, etc...

The new Hot Trucks 5-pack is out starring a nice, blue '83 Silverado at the top. It seems like Toys R Us is getting these first. That's where I found mine and that's where everyone I've read about so far has found theirs.
|
Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
That's where I found mine too. I only found one set though and a ton of the flamed 62's.
|
Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
Have you found both versions of the flamed '62? There's the first variation with the separate orange surfboard in the bed and the second variation has a sunroof on the cab and the surfboard is molded into the bed floor.
|
Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
A new 52 also
|
Re: 73-87 hot wheels and die cast thread
1badgmc, I have three of each. The first version with the surfboard came from Toys R Us and I picked up the sunroof version and few first editions at Walmart. I didn't realize they were different until the other night. Also, one of my blue 83's has a flame like whisp in the white paint. It looks likes its ghosted underneath the white in between the scallop. IdK if its a variation or just a paint defect.
