All except for the Top Secret 350Z were purchased from RevSpot when they were still around. The Top Secret 350Z was brought over from HK as a gift from my brother.

Wilkinson on Ontario and Broadway.

The owner Ted bought all the remaining stock of the local distributor a few years ago. Prices range from $20-$50. They should still have some available.

Some Initial D and 86s.

I have even more now to the point where i keep the higher end models stacking up in their original boxes..

kwy 10-18-2012 08:58 PM

Wish I had that kind of shelf space. Picked this up from wal-mart today, lol. Sold at Wilkinson for $50, wal-mart had it for $20. Huge Aston Martin fan. Now if I could only find a DBS and DB5 on the cheap.

sometimes, some of the best bargains are on craigslist... rare cars, autoart cars etc.

wilkinsons also has a "used" car lot :troll: i check by once in a while for awesome rare stuff.......

http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...558_8511_n.jpg

picked up this long discontinued UT models 993 RS from them...

http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...558_1839_n.jpg

picked up these three on craigslist.

http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...558_5817_n.jpg

just need to bargain hunt/ sniff around for this stuff locally! theyre not as expensive as most people think! the maisto race cars (CLK GTR, 911 GT1, BMW LMR, Audi R8R) were all about $20 a piece!

good example on CL:

For Sale: 1:18 Maisto, Bburago, Hot Wheels diecast model cars


:ilied:

that R35 is a write off...

i see it for sale with the title stating "a few glue marks" ill know its a "rebuilt title" :troll:

kwy 10-19-2012 11:49 AM

Wish the DB9 model had swan doors that angle up a bit like the real car. Would've been a nice detail.

Edison_Chen 10-19-2012 10:04 PM

Here's my small small collection of 1:18/1:24. They're so expensive, and they take up so much space.

http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/...s/IMG_0395.jpg

But my favorite 2 are:

Here's the collection, I'm trying to collect: "Hot Wheels". New in Packaging, primarily collected Japanese cars, and a few Europeans and a few domestic ones.

The quality of hot wheels cars just isn't really there anymore, especially with those shitty decals that are often misaligned.

SpeedStars 10-21-2012 12:24 AM

That RSX is sooo RARE!!!:QQ:

PuYang 10-21-2012 01:36 PM

autoworld had a mugen RSX in white a while ago. havent been there in months though, but it was always there ;o

kwy 10-21-2012 02:20 PM

Picked up one of these today. maybe one day it'll be worth something, lol. personally I think Angry Birds is extremely overrated and idk why everyone is obsessed with it.

That DC5 mugen is a nice pickup

FRStan 10-21-2012 06:12 PM

Haha, I think I sold you the DC5 a few years ago. You work at the Automall right?
Good to see it around in good shape still :D

I remember I bought it off somebody, but I totally lost his name/user name and stuff.... Yes it was me.... Right after when I went home I put the vehicle still in the box into a glass case, and its been there since...
I don't think I have taken it out of the box at all.
