Im looking for a 2012 Hot Wheels BMW M3 GT2 in white

[QUKBMER]

If any of you guys know somebody that collects old school redlines from 1968 and up let me know. Plus i have 70's-80"s-90's and 2000's as well. I have tubs that fit 250 cars in each one,i think i have about 4 of those + 5 packs / snap on hot wheels and alot of other diecast stuff as well. I need to start selling. Way to much to list,way to much lol.

I think Ive reached well over 1000 at this point, although Ive slowed down I still snag a few if I like them enough. Just dont have the same amount of time i used to

The Hot Wheels thread.

The 959 in the background of my pic is a "World Class" one. Ive had that since I was a kid. mirror glass is pretty faded, I wonder if theres way to get it all shiny again???

edit: I was sitting here comparing pics and thought, " I remember mine had the writing on the sidewalls too..." Then I noticed the writing on the inside of the tires, I had rotated them a long time ago for that cleaner look :rofl: Ive been modifying cars a LONG time

I'm with you nowadays. I remember when the axles on the hot wheels were junk, and Matchbox made the good stuff. Seems to be the other way 'round now.

thats how it was when i was a kid!

Same here!!

But now, Matchbox seems to be owned by the same company as Hot Wheels - Mattel.

I also noticed the newer Matchbox cards have a pic of the actual car instead of just a generic car as well as what looks like a little booklet.

Anyone remember Matchbox "World Class"? Those are the first 2. Rubber tires, mirrored windows, and all.

I do remember those! Had a bunch as a kid but they're all missing. I'm sure they'll turn up eventually, gotta be at my parent's house somewhere.

I always loved the detail of the lights, grilles, etc. Didn't remember that they were Matchbox though, I'm now a Hot Wheels snob haha. I would still love to find them though, they were some of my favorites back then.

Was out shopping a few days ago and found this new one:

[ajhostetter]

Re-hanging shelves in the boys' room after repainting. In addition to the 1:18 scale models I acquired as a kid, I have these...The Bimmer is from the late 70s, before I was borne. The rest I purchased as a kid in the late 80s-early 90s. Anyone remember Matchbox "World Class"? Those are the first 2. Rubber tires, mirrored windows, and all.

Picked up two more just stumbling across them. Hope this doesn't become addicting

Spoiler Alert: It does.

Found this one tonight. Only one there though..

Nice, gotta keep my eye out for one of those now.
