...dude you see you just made a comment I can rebut! ....no challenge hehehe If this happens, there's always a poster - guy cuts the TH pictures out and shows the staff. If it's not labelled on poster, there's always the internet to find out ma... do not reveal mean do not mention the car is the TH car the poster. only 'officially' reveal what are the TH car until end of the year or end of all wave. ...only thing...is to abolish the whole TH series. Only Limiteds gets to have RR wheels!

...no such luck in Malaysia on the 1st and 4th wave of this 60th series ....it just never came in....you'll have to look for them either from HongKong or some where in Europe..even Singapore all 4 wave passed liao, you may still find odds & bits here and there @ Cold storage, Jusco, Carrefour, Tesco, 7e, Giant...the usual places. Hope this helps...

I firstly much convince you this topic you're on is very subjective to different market, niche, assortment, target audience and so on and forth... I believe to some certain degree, that all models in each lineup are made same quantity,exceptionally for the last few batches of the year, reason behind - they got to release soon, by producing lesser, just to play catch up with production for the following year. As you all 'loose' collectors know, we get to buy em, more often 4-6 months ahead...remember. Your question about assortments, why this wave only got one or two red Ferrari but did you ask yourself why the other wave suddenly got more of that same Ferrari? Mattel obviously knows how to pack, it's just they've divided the assortment (sometimes into 3 different waves/case codes) I sometimes ask myself....does everyone else tries to understand or at least find out or try to know-all-about the hobby, or are most collectors just want to remain OBLIVIOUS to what they can find out themselves, learn, educate their own. Any reasons/excuses...are just WHAT it is. So you got to 'handbrake' STOP. LOOK. GO. ...

...this above mentioned - will only create other 'open-holes' for the employee, insider or to the guy who's been paying the staffs. More the merrier for them, both parties profits even more. Creating more quantity of the THs or whatever will only double up their profit even faster... Like a lot of collectors who "Converted" will tell you this - If You Can't Beat Them, JOiN tHEm!! I say ---> TOO BAD (to the converted ones)

What paint to use for headlamps and how to apply?
Rayz-HWC replied to liette's topic in Customizing TIPS!
Nail polish max u can use it for the head lamps, rear lamps, it creates a blob of paint unless it's the expensive ones, then you won't have to fresking shake the bottle till crazy to get a smoooooooooooth liquid nail polish if not...i tell you to save your strength and just go find some those knitting shops. They have heaps of those coloured / transparent beads/stones/gems (watever you wanna call) and lots of other things too you can find there. You know those simple cut-out stickers or actually ANY type of stickers you find. Color, shape, size etc etc....cut out a shape and stick it! Voila...simple ma, but if you want cooler and more radical...that you got to use some brain juice! hehehehehe -

Rayz-HWC replied to rikmun's topic in HW Customs
I have to say - you have the idea! Now just practising will match your SKILLs with your GREAT IDEAs!!! Keep up the creativeness. Guys...always look around the household, recycle whatever you can find. I myself have picked up rubbish thrown away by others, I don't care! I PICKED IT UP PUT ON MY CUSTOM - OH MY GOD!!! hehehhe....so who knows right not ... ...and don't let anyone else tell you - if you have no art/design background you can't custom!!! B U L L S H I T ! ALL YOU NEED is to LOVE CARs ...hehehe flip thru the mags or watch some old re-runs of car movies and such. Get some inspiration. I'm currently trying to multi-task doing custom cars and dioramas...oh my..what fun ... -
[HWCM F&F group built] HW lancer evolution 7 DAMD (update 01.12.10 @ pg5)
Rayz-HWC replied to danoneism's topic in HW Customs
Well...i just want to add, it'll be much easier for you to work with the base and body separated, but then again maybe that's how you work. Trace it out, make sure got everything prepared, then only the fun starts ..... You may also like to try removing the paint first from the chassis using those 'Paint Remover' for metal, then using the finest sandpaper and sanding under slow-running water. This way you don't get the dust all over your face or have it all over the house and dirty the tables and bla bla bla...hehehehe...you'll notice with the finer sandpaper, it's easy but whereas the thicker the sandpaper, lesser strength you have to use ....i personally prefer the finer ones, gives me more control and reaching those little nooks and such ... But...yea!!! You BEAT me to the idea! ...i was browsing the net, and bumped into one of our members here Blog site. He was featuring all the cars from all the 4 episodes of Fasst & Furious. Looking thru them cars, i figured hey I have 80% of the cars featured in those movies...so got me to think...hmmm...how about customising every SET of cars featured in the movies....already Work In Progress! ...hehehe -

...damn it's hard to get this into everyones head LOL...nothing will change, and Stop focusing on the THs, in fact the next time you go hunt - DON'T think of finding any TH. Go with a clear conscious of getting new wave of cars you'll be more surprise this way, so what if you don't find it the first 50 times, go on and on...did you just gave up on life the first 'bump' you hit?! NO...you carry yourself up and carry on.... Netmatrix...reason behind 'sharing is caring' came from the notion..when collectors like you (as an example k) who can't find the red GTO, now if someone online posted info where about it is - you either go there yourself, or you can simply ask nicely for the collector friend to grab from you. Now is there someone in here that OVER CHARGES on any basic car...You let me know tat SCUM! (do not follow my word for word - as you ALL know [a fact] that TREASURE HUNTS NEVER SOLD FOR RETAIL PRICE!!) Whatcha gonna do with 50 reg. THs? Keep a few years and try prey on newbs to this hobby? You're SCUM! If you keeping maybe say the $uper THs and sell in future...FINE it's yours do whatever..right not. But if it's reg. THs..come on la. Even sometimes nowadays I still sell off my reg. THs either retail price @ RM6.50 or I just let go for RM6...how much can you earn? *sigh*...but like Pydrummer said, "...Everyone has a preference..." ...guys - See Beyond!
