Yao 0 Posted November 10, 2009 Hi! Just registered myself for this forum. Have been a collector since high school and currently based in Singapore for academic purposes, but that has not dampen my Hot Wheels collecting. This has been a question which I have failed to find an answer... where can we get the Treasure Hunt Series in Malaysia? Because of where my house is, the most convenient place to get Hot Wheels would be Toys 'R' Us but I have never seen a single TH... My only TH since I started collecting is the 2001 Series Rodger Dodger... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good point there... but as mentioned in my starting post... it's like since 2001 when I last bought a TH. Tough luck huh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

undercoverbrother 0 Posted November 10, 2009 Btw yao, if you haven't heard latest trend here in HWCM, playaz here have wife, fiancee or gf helped them out and turn out they all put the collectors themselves to shame. So tips the no.1 - Score a girl first and they'll score for you. If you're a girl collector then you still have to hunt yourself cause male species only knows how to eat sleep and watch football.

Too bad 'cos my girl thinks Hot Wheels are for kids... However, I'm in the midst of "educating" her~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enyomic 0 Posted November 10, 2009 Welcome to the club Yao, like u I was transplanted to SG due to studies and now r working here .... a word of advice, if you want to hunt in SG make sure u know their restock pattern and work hard. Being a student should not hinder you as u will have a lot of free time to hunt so enjoy it as a hobby if u must ... but if u really want some thunt ... u can get from me ...... enjoy man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sinclair 0 Posted November 10, 2009 Welcome Yao. You just need to hunt regularly, or get some friends to help you. Then scoring TH should not be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nrik Kueh 0 Posted November 11, 2009 I suggest you try to spread out a little further. Vivo TRU very slow restock. Try the TRU's in Orchard area and the shopping malls surrounding it. Oh one more thing, don't underestimate Giant hypermarkets, i find super TH's there before. ...and welcome to HWCM! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ViVo City's very close to where I am staying which is why it's like a "default" destination for me, but I will be expanding my scope. Current situation impeded by exams & other school commitments. As for Giant, you are absolutely right. I was there this afternoon for my last haul until after my exams and managed to get these... 2008 All Stars Saleen S7 2009 Hot Wheels Racing Panoz GTR-1 (almost completing this Series) And these from a toy store at Level 1 of Harbour Front... (the kind of shop where you won't expect to find Hot Wheels...) 2009 Ferrari Racer 430 Scuderia 1/24 2009 Ferrari Racer F355 Challenge 3/24 among others... Oh yeah, there are quite a number of Colour Shifters Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution at ViVo Giant, if you happen to want one and happen to be in Singapore for the time being. I did not buy it 'cos had spend quite a lot... (regretting now though ) I'll upload my haul for today in another thread for sharing later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
