[Diecast] Monthly Additions: January 2014

2nd: Walmart:



Land Rover Defender 110S (2014 MBX Explorers)

First car of the year? Why not?


5th: TheToyPeddler: sealedcase:




Shelby Cobra 427 S/C (2009 Convention Ticket Car), Dodge Viper RT/10 (1996 FAO Schwarz History of Hot Wheels II Set)

Blacklisted the Viper, but couldn't let a PC6 Viper go for $4. Didn't seem like a bad price and certainly not one I've found on the second-hand market very often.


13th: eBay: oak753:



Toyota MR2 Rally (1992 Getty Promo)

Seller was wonderful for opting out of Global Shipping. A lot of US sellers aren't aware but it's the default shipping option if they don't manually create their own international shipping policy. And because they aren't aware just how much Pitney Bowles charges to ship a dinky little car, they lose out on a lot of international business.


14th: TheToyPeddler: britbikeguy:




BMW R1200 RTP Police Bike (2012 MBX Highway/FE), Jaguar E-Type Coupe (2007 MBX Metal)


15th: eBay: biditwinit9:






Shelby Cobra 427 S/C (1990 Cal Custom), Porsche 911 GT1-98 (2000 Mainline/Teal Tampos variation), Toyota MR2 Rally (1995 Mainline/SB variation), Pikes Peak Tacoma (2005 Wastelanders/Unpainted Insert variation)


15th: TheToyPeddler: ou thunder:

	Found it for $4. Can I say I got a good deal? I'd like to say no. eBay sellers merely think a Mercedes - let alone a "oooh Final Run!" will get them big profit. Wrong, my friend. If that was the case, I wouldn't have got this car for so little.
	I was expecting the white tampo to be white. After doing a few searches I initially thought the SB and PR5 variations were just exceptions, until I found a listing on WSP wheels with the pink shade. They almost look like they've been dyed. Photos found on eBay listings

16th: eBay: hot_wheels_junkie:





'59 Impala (1997 First Editions/7SP variation), Cool One (2005 Crazed Clowns II/Chrome Base variation), '63 T-Bird (2005 Muscle Mania)

All of these aren't very common in the second market. I am quite content.


16th: eBay: jtvsurplus:





I would've did a loose Cobra and Miata, but it's not built to be reassembled. That is to say, the tabs are glued and not fastened, and it'd look strange to have a few loose and keep the rest inside, so I'm keeping them all inside for presentation's sake.


Toyota MR2 Rally (1991 Mainline/HO variation)

Should've kept it carded, but the card was fairly warped though not creased, bent or folded anywhere.


16th: TheToyPeddler: diecast-1:

Toyota MR2 Rally (2001 Power Launcher), Lotus Sport Elise (2004 First Editions/Zamac)


This doesn't fit anywhere here as I've owned this for some time, but I did open up my 2010 HW Performance Ground F/X after I had to make room due to a lack of blister card protecto-paks this month.
