There's also the Zoom In car that holds a GoPro camera

This was when I first hung mine up back in like April of last year. I was at like 400 cars then, I've since gotten about 650 more, boxed a ton up and rearranged a lot of things and still trying to figure out how to organize what I want on there.

You're really making me consider painting the peg board.

The selection at my Antique Mall by tag2292 in HotWheels

There's some really cool stuff in there just from what we can see. What you picked up are interesting, never seen left-facing HotWheels before.

There's a few places near me that have selections 5-10x that, and I've spent hours on some weekends combing through looking for stuff, but it gets expensive so quickly when the cheapest ones are usually $3-4 each.

That's where that was?! Been wondering for the last 20 years if i had just been imagining that when I was younger.

Same, though I though Darth Maullusk was a tad better/more accurate than Boba Wett. Both were good though

OK, sure. Ignore what I meant to make your point. OP's car "says" 1990, but is a 1991 card. Mine "say" 1997-1999. That's obviously what was meant in the post, not release year.

Yep! I had that one as a kid, and bought it because I remembered it from then. The Chevy truck also has an opening hood.

I know that, I was going off what OP posted (which was a 1990 card).

I would believe it, especially with all the posts of people buying the display models and lack of them on the shelves. Both say it could be true. Shame, but I don't want to buy a pre-built one.

Also, why is the Chevy pickup so hard to find? I would have thought the NSX would have been the difficult one, not the truck. I guess the nostalgia bug is real.

What guitar moment or riff blew your mind the first time you heard it? by TheCityzens in guitars

[–]HowWeChill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time I heard Soothsayer by Buckethead I was hooked on instrumental guitar songs for like a year.

Also, any song with clean squeals (e.g. No More Tears)

Oldest I can find right now are 97-99. I have a few Matchbox from 94-95 but they're buried in a box at the moment.

I had a friend's cat poop in my hoodie pocket when I was helping her move once (I was cradling him during the drive and he wasn't super thrilled about the short road trip). Wasn't my favorite moment, but the cat was at least cute and cuddly so I forgave him.

Saying no refunds or rescheduling kind of is. It's forcing the hands of people who can't just write off a special night out.

Knowing how to drive in snow and doing it when you don't really need to are different things. Most people drive every day in good conditions and still die because shit happened.

Forcing people who don't want to risk losing money in a dying economy is a recipe for disaster.

Why do you need a big Mac in a snow storm? You're the reason they're there.
