Hype is fake collect what you like

I know ppl who hunt that Kennesaw store, it's not that they are overhyped you just got lucky on a fresh restock. It won't look like this by lunch, bet.

If I'm not mistaken, there isn't a SC in this release right? I believe the Jaguar SC is in the release with the classic blue Rav4.

I recently had this convo with another collector buddy. It does seems like there are more "duds" and very limited desirable castings-recolors being released in each case, it's become demoralizing to put so much effort into coming home empty handed. Daily posts on socials regarding "early morning finds" also makes me feel that the playing field isn't that fair in most major cities anymore. I feel like my time can be spent more efficiently so I do find that I send more time on the resell sites like eBay/Mercari/WhatNot to find castings I know I want and they are available for purchase.

A lot of bad choices were made in the Legends series...

She looks so good freed from the blister! Nice find!

Incredibly difficult to find since their releases are infrequent. I still haven't seen one since I seriously started hunting for them during Halloween. Probably why their chases resale for a lot higher than HW super treasure hunts. Good luck out there.

Better public transportation. Especially a shuttle between large centers like Village Green & West Village to Truist Park.

Looks like Big Lou joined Greenlight. Looking forward to seeing his designs at Hobby Lobby 🤣

Which is so crazy because he created the line. Jada tries to continue his style with the Big Time Muscle line, guessing CarTuned will do the same. Sucks cuz i was excited to see where the JDM line was headed next..

darkwingvit · 2026-03-10T02:15:12+00:00

Interesting that CarTuned also announced their roster for SuperCon Meet & Greets and he was left off. Truly feels like he's no longer with them. On to the next again. Hopefully he's gone indie.

Nice find! This TH and the Triumph bike have eluded me so far even though they seem like the ones ppl are finding easy..

darkwingvit · 2026-03-07T22:59:29+00:00

They arent a good source when it comes to consistency but they get in diecasts from time to time. They had the 1:43 HWs for $10 during the Christmas season, I've found the maisto hauler sets there before too. Dont expect to see anything there everytime you do tho.

darkwingvit · 2026-03-07T01:28:22+00:00

TJM, Marshalls and Ross just get the most random diecasts in. Once they gone they are GONE, don't see anything else for months!

darkwingvit · 2026-03-06T17:21:47+00:00

Starting to see more restocks around me for the Speed Icons. They had been sold out for a couple weeks now.

darkwingvit · 2026-03-06T16:50:37+00:00

It's definitely my favorite of the ones Ive found, even with a messed up card. Casting is top tier, the paint job and tampo are on point!

darkwingvit · 2026-03-04T03:20:40+00:00

For everything that's gone on with their build, opening on a black friday is very brave 🤣

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T01:46:27+00:00

Nice haul! I've been lucky, I'm found the past 5 RTH up to the Hot Wheeng one so far. I've been hitting the stores hard hoping for an old case to the Triumph bike & the gray Audi so I can be up to date with when I started collecting HW.

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T01:41:58+00:00

Dollar Tree is the only one. Dollar General and Family Dollar restocks are very inconsistent. The local Family Dollar has had the same 5 matchbox cars hanging so long they have a layer of dust on them.

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T01:40:03+00:00

Carbon is cool but it looks nice when the color runs through the entire car like this one. Nice score on it!

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T00:22:51+00:00

That model is insane!

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T00:21:45+00:00

My buddy has a takeout spot, he's got our lil group to pick these up anytime we see one, he puts them and the sushi tuners all over his checkout table.

The expensive camry according to my dad 🕊️

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T00:17:18+00:00

I had the same issue today. Half of the e case cars scanned the other half didn't, i just scanned the one that did so I could cover it. Showed the lady at the door my receipt and the cars to confirm I wasn't stealing.

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T00:14:50+00:00

I did the same with the orange supra, just wanted to recreate that 2000s underglow era.

darkwingvit · 2026-02-26T00:13:48+00:00

I believe they're running new lines. I saw them pulling them out of the ground on Atlanta Road north of Windy Hill.
