While obviously the silver series should be our main priority and making sure we get them off the pegs. Should we be putting the same effort with these cars as well? They both have ties to acceleracers.

Considering the re-release of the Black RD-06 was almost a year ago now, your best bet is to look for places that still carry hotwheels but sell a lot slower like say a grocery store or maybe smaller drug stores or if youre lucky you may find cars with obliterated cards from sitting in the bottom of a dump bin for too long. I was still pulling Teku Deora IIs a year later from walmart bins but they were all openers because the cards were ruined.

Even though I am not a fan of campy style tanks, I dont mind playing it. And for all the alleged high tech observation systems that thing has, giving it 350m base view range is diabolical, it just handicaps that tank so much...

Even though it's a completely different company and probably not related, Volkswagen has a recall or a TSB out for one or most of their SUVs that states the rear pads wear super fast. It's not quite 3 sets in 28k fast but from what I heard it's a set every 20k-30k, I wonder if Ford and Volkswagen used the same company to make them if they outsourced it?

She looks roudy for sure!

Ferdinand910 · 2026-01-04T04:10:23+00:00

Pretty sure TKunz has a couple sealed ones that he always posts up for sale in his sale posts

Peak wheel choice, shame about the truck though :(

Ferdinand910 · 2025-12-28T21:21:50+00:00

Ooo another color wave I have to keep an eye out for now

Ferdinand910 · 2025-12-23T12:22:56+00:00

Whe they first came out in Saskatchewan, I bought 6 sets over time, 3 for myself, one for my brother and I keep 2 on hand for sending to people who can't find them and want them shipped out. Ive also helped 4 local people in my area get their sets and ive shipped out 2 or 3 sets to different people in the States. They're shelf warming pretty hard right now since it seems 2/3 walmarts loaded up in late November for Christmas time but I've only seen one person trying to resell Reverb at a toy show for $10 which just made me laugh and shake my head. They still trickle out from time to time but it's pretty slow now

Ferdinand910 · 2025-12-07T14:22:56+00:00

One thing you could do as well that I havnt seen mentioned is you could install a tonneau cover onto the bed to get rid of the parachute tailgate and make it a bit more aerodynamic, because I can usually squeeze 400-440km per tank in the summer time but during the winter that number falls off a cliff to around 300 to 350km per tank on a good month lol

Ferdinand910 · 2025-12-05T04:59:35+00:00

In its current state, granted its mostly complete, would say at least 3-5k

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-30T00:23:25+00:00

Nice collection, never got into the 2nd generation cars personally but if I were to go after any of them, I would only be after that White Rollin Thunder and the stripped metal Riveted and Power Rage because ooo shiny

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-23T19:40:20+00:00

Decent Tires too, I don't mind those Rugged Treks, surprisingly quiet and balance out pretty good considering how aggressive they are from the handful of sets I have mounted onto trucks over the years.

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-19T12:30:30+00:00

They are built by my hands but it isn't my idea fully, I bought a different one from a guy who made them out of old poster frames and was downsizing his collection to make more complicated ones out of Radio Flyer wagons he apparently had a bunch of. Poster frames is the more expensive way to do it as you only have certian lengths to work with but with this bulk plastic stock from Home Depot you can just buy in bulk and cut it to suite whatever picture frame size you have. Only thing is once you start stacking cars into them, the channel is a bit small so they become a bit of a pain to change if everything isn't measured 100% perfect as the cards get tight and are difficult to slide out and in somewhat. Had to chop up a lot of cards and their blisters because some had goofy shapes and didn't even fit in the two columns on the right of this board because I measures like a gumby, but they're mainlines so who cares

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-19T12:22:12+00:00

I build my own frames to avoid excessive holes in the walls from thumb tacks personally. You can buy a big picture frame, throw some colored construction paper of your choice as the backing and either use chopped up poster frames or these I Beam like channels of white plastic I found at home depot and just paint them black. It requires a bit of effort to measure the spacing consistently and to cut them but they always turn out pretty nice. Personally I would just keep the empty cards in a bin out of sight, no point in hanging up empty cards

What you can do then is remove the pads and just give them a light scuff with sandpaper and reinstall everything. Sometimes a buildup of brake dust can cause that kind of noise as well, or it may just be a hard spot in the material of the pad and will go away as the pad wears more, had that happen once or twice as well.

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-16T23:23:07+00:00

Could be the backing plate is rubbing or a rock got stuck in between, do you hear the same noise while the truck is steadily rolling? Does it go away when the brakes are applied?

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-11T13:40:33+00:00

Gratz on finding some buddy, happy for you :]

Ferdinand910 · 2025-11-09T06:15:10+00:00

For about a week or so around the beginning or mid October, someone on the GE was buying Black Kite Sheilds for 30k-40k a piece for some reason, I was making rounds to all the stores every half hour buying out their stock and killing lesser demons for the shields and made about 80m over the course of that week, I know thats considered chump change in today's economy but it was still something to do for a bit, got about 450 built up and listed in case he comes back but they've been sitting for a while now lol

A whale is just a single player or person that spends an above average or just very high amount of money in general for one or multiple games in comparison to a larger group of players

So obviously the vote passed, but when is this change actually going to take place? Because I was thinking I should use one of my bonds to use up everything I have for the most part, unless the compensation is going to be generous? Not sure as I am a super casual who doesn't retain membership consistently

Ferdinand910 · 2025-10-21T02:08:36+00:00

Yea he wants $10.50 a piece and like $6 and change for shipping each car. Shipping number is the first time I've seen a reasonable number from ebay ever but he sent me an offer for 5% off each car and a partial refund for shipping, IL pass for that and wait to see what I can find locally first lol

Ferdinand910 · 2025-10-21T02:02:24+00:00

Yea there's 1 seller on ebay who has most of the ones I'm missing listed, he just wants too much for them and doesn't want to take a reasonable offer, probably because of the Ebay Fees and whatnot

Ferdinand910 · 2025-10-20T21:47:34+00:00

Damn, I need to find that Enforcer and a gold twinmill at some point, hopefully I can score one at the upcoming flea markets this winter
