Those are regular Hotwheels. In case you don't know, Hotwheels releases different cars every year, and some cars from previous years are repeated but with different liveries/color schemes. There is a yellow GT3RS in the 2015 collection, and a black Evo X. The Evo X will be released soon, but the GT3RS is already available in lots of toy shops. Happy Hunting !

The Rolls was picked from India. Was in Singapore for the weekend and ended up doing this! I am out of space for the time being and hence havent taken them out of the box (yet). As soon as i have a new display case, i will take them out and click detailed photos.

Dear Rosso Corsa

Thanks for the information. I seriously had no clue. Thanks again.

But I was specifically looking for the GT3RS in Black, as in the picture. I have few Porsche-s in my collection:

I have 7 Evolution X-s, so I am interested in the older generations

The black GT3RS is from 2013 collection. Your only chance of finding it is if you run into a toy store which has had problems getting rid of old stock

HW has only made the Evo VII and Evo X so far, the Evo 7 was not released as much as the Evo X. Your best bet to source one is eBay. Will cost quite a lot as compared to a new HW so I wouldn't really recommend that

Re: The Scale Model Thread

Dear all,
As this is the thread for the scale models, I am puting forward my agony here.
Recently I ordered a Matt Black Kyosho from Japan. Its 1/64 scale. But since the last 5 days, its showing as In Customs at Mumbai FPO. I am at Pune and therefore not possible for me to visit the office to inquire the status. I have also read some place that if I show interest to the custom guys, they are bound to charge anything, to grease up their hands. Its just a small car, but its a Skyline and that too a matt black one. Please can someone help me out from this agony.
Only a collector can fill the pain and therfore have put my query here.

Best regards,
Bikramjit.

Check with your local foreign post office. I got my package cleared on Friday in Delhi. Took me 6 months to figure out how to go about it but it's finally done. I should have the cars with me this week.

A big thanks to Karan (KRN6789) for sending me in the right direction finally!

Meanwhile, a pic from last Sunday

Two more additions after this pic was taken

Gallardo Balboni- Yellow
Murcielgo SV- Matte Black

And arriving hopefully this week are

Pagani Huayra- White
458 Spider- Matte Black
F430-Silver

Cheers
Rohan

You have one heck of a drool-worthy collection Rohan. Was just sitting and admiring the beautiful models in that pic. And you certainly don't seem to be stopping here. Keepi it going and keep posting more pics here!

Re: The Scale Model Thread

and great collections

Newbie collector needs some help on where to buy.. Need them before May18th if possible.

Reaching a significant milestone in our relationship and i would like to gift my petrolhead husband his dream cars: Ford Mustang GT Shelby GT500 and a black Mercedes G-Wagen. Scale models, of course

The finish should be good.

Till date, I visited ModelArt in Forum Mall Bangalore. Not impressed with the finish or the quality diecast models of Lamborghinis and Ferraris.

Any help is much appreciated.

Net 20 days it will be held by customs, the withheld period has been recently changed from 10 to 20 days for the dutiable items. It will be released on the 20th day dont worry.
