    Really fun to open older castings. Talbot Lago, VW Golf, Mercedes 300TD and 380SEL, Ferrari 512M, the Nissan Custom Z with the opening doors, Classic Caddy and the Kenworth Big Rig are my favorites shown here. Swingfire looks cool too. The paint chips are probably metal flash leftovers from the factory. Thanks for showing these in detail!

    I can hear Emo collector's crying...NOOOOOOOOOOO!! Nooooooo$$$$$$$$$$$$$
    Sorry but the Mint on card vs. Loose war cracks me up. I love Hot Wheels period. On card yeah they look nice, BUT to TRULY APPRECIATE them I open them up. I had a Blue card Oshkosh plow truck-black. I kept it mint for ages. This last year I popped it open. It is a beautiful casting. Again yes it looks nice on card, but loose it's to me anyway so much nicer. I'm not a kid, so I get razzed for having toy cars everywhere, but again I ENJOY them. THANK YOU for showing us loose collectors how awesome they look freed from their plastic tomb...lol. Take care sir. See I commented before watching all of it. Your orange Oshkosh snowplow is the one I have in black. Awesome truck HEAVY HEAVY HEAVY.

    Speaking of Eaton's, when I was a little kid, I seem to remember that the Eaton's at Fairview Pointe-Claire in west suburban Montreal had the greatest toy section outside of dedicated toy stores. Pointe-Claire eventually got a Toys R' Us in a plaza near Fairview but that didn't open until 1986 if I remember correctly. Simpson's was also still open at the time and I'm sure they had a toy section too but it's the toy section at the Fairview Eaton's that I get nostalgic for.
    I usually got my Hot Wheels in a small toy store called Plastica in my local mall since Fairview was a ~20 minute drive away from where I lived for most of my childhood, though, for playsets, Consumer's Distributing was better.

    I have every one of those, that was from my heyday of collecting as a kid, collected from 1988 to about 1998 then took a 10 year hiatus and started back up slowly collecting Hot Wheels mostly but not many. Then I started watching this channel along with a couple others in 2016 and really started collecting pretty hard and still do. Great video and cars!

    I really liked these old school models. I would’ve but most of these at my flea market but most of the time they don’t have diecast models for display. That’s why I just resort to buying them on eBay.

  • @supersportryder

    It's a shame that 20 or even 30 year old cars are still worth a dollar. I'm a new collector and found a tiger 67 gto in a package from 2000 and was jumping up and down, till i got home and looked it up. I opened it instantly and everything else I thought I was actually worth something or going to be. Thanks for this great video.

    @EdsterIII 5 лет назад

    I wanted to say that price sticker was from a K-Mart but now that I think back a lot of older retailers used those price stickers. Target as well I think. Again GREAT VIDEO. Your are so right, these older cars are becoming harder to locate. Some of these are from when I was out of school already. In my 20's Hot Wheels weren't high on my list of things to do. My 69 Olds 442 was my baby. Going to Motley Crue, Iron Maiden, and Metallica concerts every summer was more of my hobby. Rock concerts,women, and racing my 442. But seeing this I do realize I did miss out on some cool cars, but I can't say I'd swap them out....lol. 2 top memories....Summerfest in Milwaukee...2nd row center Metallica. June 30th, 1992. I was 24. Yeah I'm old AF. Sorry. Memory lane story. Looking back at older toys, Hot Wheels, Star Wars, etc. reminds me of so many good memories. What comes after this in 1994 and then 1996 devastated me. I lost my parents to terminal illnesses. Emphysema(Mom) and cancer(Dad). Now I have the same illness that took my Mom. So during all of these years the mid to late 90's into 2000, I had zero interest in Hot Wheels. In anything actually. Severe depressionm was my world. But ironically then when I was depressed and didn't care I was healthy. Now 20 years later, I got a diagnosis that back then would have been fine. Karma can kick you in the teeth. Before I knew how bad I was. i was hospitalized 5 times with pneumonia. 3 times I was in ICU. This last time 3 months ago I had a heart attack. But back 24-36 months ago I was laying in a hospital bed and I started scanning you tube. I came across some animal videos...cute. Then I found a channel dedicated to racing Hot Wheels. The Super 6 lane and a scale 1/4 mile run. King of the Hill it was called. Ghostjerker was the channel. I watched for HOURS. As a kid I raced Hot Wheels, Matchbox, and some overseas cars I had. How I got them?????? But I was hooked. I kept watching. Looking for other channels. I found a few that I loved. Some meh. Your channel came up a bit later. You had some Monster Jam races(Love those as well). But your "haul" and reviews were spot on. I was hooked on another channel...lol. All of these combined gave me a fun hobby. I was into Star Wars Black series figures. Marvel Legends, etc but they were $20+ and scalpers were charging $75-125 for older figs. Hot Wheels racing had me. I "switched" hobbies...lol. I started kinda dumb. I got a 4 lane gravity drop track off ebay for $60.00 used. Then the grail. The 6 lane. But I didn't buy a Super 6 lane off Amazon for $119.99. I waited. It never dropped. I ended up spending $149.99 but free shipping. 2 months later Toys R Us sent a email. They had one. $99.99 and free shipping + I had a $10.00 off coupon. So I grabbed a second one. Figured why not, maybe sell one and get some money back. That never happened. I have not sold any cars or tracks I've acquired. I enjoy them too much. My goal was to start a racing channel. I stocked up on some tracks. I got a older Sizzlers set. It was all cracked and not in great shape. Then I got really sick, AGAIN. The pneumonia was ripping my lungs apart. My channe dream died. Mostly due to bad planning. I should have gotten my camera sets first. I had my phone and a older camera. Wasn't good for my needs. Anyway long a** story short. These little 1:64 scale replicas gave me hope and fun when I really needed a focus. Your channel and a few others inspired me to chase a dream. Even though I failed it was a fun ride. Now however I can't get out to hunt for cars. It is EXPENSIVE to have a terminal illness in the US. Add to that scalpers out number us 10 to 1 I can't find anything anymore. The Bugatti, the McLaren Sienna, the Corvette Gumball 3000 cars have all been impossible. The Bigfoot trucks from Greenlight nobody sells. The HW's Bigfoot Monster Truck series they made after Spin Master got the Jam license...another MIA. A hobby that started as a GREAT way to spend time has become a irritating and frustrating chore. I've tried to see if a Buy/Sell/Trade place online could be possible but I've heard there are too many rip offs out there. I hoped I could ask you if you know of any place that people can go to, to find new mainline cars. Not eBay, the Bugatti had auctions of $40+. I can't afford that. Heck I'd get a case before I did that. I apologize for the long a** comment. I don't really have many collectors here. I'm kind of a "outcast". A grown man with toys. I've been called a few unflattering things. I've always walked my own path so I'll live. I heard 4chan has a buy/sell/trade posting, but they do more anime SHFiguarts, Mafex, and other higher end imports. But again I've heard a few stories of people lying and stealing so I've hesitated. Any ideas would be helpful. Again your channel is so incredible as is your collection. I'd love to have a chance to spend a day or three...lol, looking at your cars and hearing your stories about them. Your knowledgeable, well spoken, and have a GREAT EYE for Hot Wheels. One last question. The white Nissan 4x4's, or any 4x4 from that era. The Vette 4x4 as well, are those tough to locate? I've looked a few times on eBay and haven't had a lot of luck. Any way thanks again. If you have time to answer I'd appreciate it.

      Thank you for your message to me, it is very appreciated and also nice to know that my channel has helped you, even if in some small way, to enjoy this hobby and life in general... it is the same for me in so many ways. I feel for you and your losses, and frustrations, it certainly seems that you have experienced large challenges. Health is the most important and happiness as well, keep fighting the good fight my friend. As for where to buy or sell cars, I personally have not had much luck other than on eBay. I don't buy many new Hot Wheels any more unless at a local department store, because of scalpers and cost. The older cars, such as the Nissan 4x4 and Monster Vette, you may have some luck with TheToyCollectorDOTcom, he sells vintage cars for a reasonable amount. I have not personally bought from Dave, but he has been running his website for 29 years, and is a RUclips channel as well. Otherwise I recommend continuing the hunt on eBay, and hope you find a deal when you do find the cars. Take care, thanks again for your message and enjoying my videos :)

      Yes. People that open Hot Wheels so carelessly are why redlines mint in their package go for so much today. Just 6 years ago I got a couple redlines mint in rough package for $40 back then. The same ones now in rough package? Haha, $115+

    • @wtffor
      @wtffor  5 лет назад +1

      MrWolfSnack, you are one of my longest time viewers and I have much respect for you and the nice comments you have left for me in the past. I find it a bit out of the ordinary that you consider my collecting and displaying preferences "careless". NONE of the cars in this video are going to be worth what Redlines are worth, at least not until I am 6 feet under. This is a hobby for me, as I make clear in my videos. Not an investment. Also, there would be no channel here if I didn't open the cars for you guys to review. Cheers

    • @MrWolfSnack
      @MrWolfSnack 5 лет назад +1

      @wtffor Oh? No I didn't mean you O-dawg, I mean those other people that you see. I'm talking about on Facebook and eBay. There's a really rude subset of collectors that do that. I wasn't directing that at you, it was more of an aside remark in general, not aimed at anyone.

      Thanks for the good question, and no hate from me! I opened these cars because I needed these variations and models for my loose display collection of all Hot Wheels cars released... I did try buying loose models of these on ebay but was unable to locate them mint, so I needed to get them on card in order to do so. I also don't sell anything at this point, just a die-hard collector! Cheers!

    The 90s - early 2000s had some real great cars. The Limozeen in metalflake black brings great memories. Bought one loose a couple years back in mint condition just to have it again in my collection.

      That car also brings back immensely fond memories of my childhood for me... I still have my original car from that time, and mint loose now displayed on the wall! Good find for you as well!!
