Shopping spree on the bay

Yet again another bunch of parcel arrived from the States.
Just some  shopped items from ebay and instagram delivered by our dedicated proxy.
It had some troubles upon reaching Malaysian Customs, in which they insisted to slap with a huge tax due to the declaration form contains details such a shirts and hundreds of items in them..

But then they decided to slap us with the normal charges upon providing them invoices and details of purchased.
Lucky us...

Here are just some of the items delivered..
As some of us would say, our humble haul...

These are dope, heavy and the color are just awesome.

Didn't know why did I buy these.

I don't collect any of these casting.

But it is nice to look at when displayed.

I was late to redeem rewards points for RLC.

All the nice cars was taken, and I opt for this.

Keep telling myself to cut down on collections, so I there would minimal spending, but those are just hope and wishes..

I am a collector.. Probably I would slow down sometime in the future.. Hopefully.

Enjoys the pics guys.

2017 Car Culture Modern Classic

Recently Hot Wheels released their new Car Culture series for 2017..
Modern Classic. Code #DJF77-956K
Quite good selection of cars especially the First Edition Mercedes 190e.
Simple design with decent tampo and fine lines..
One of the worth keeping set IMHO..

Manage to secure some cases/sets for my buyers..

Hard to come by nowadays.

Check out the unboxing boxset video below..

The complete set of 5.

Awesome card design.

#1/5 - '92 BMW M3.

Decent design, hate those wheels thou..
Should have use the previous wheels from the Road Race Series instead.

#2/5 - '85 Honda CR-X

Its kinda hard to get a nice design/tampo for this car..
From the whole CRX variation, only a piece or 2 looks worthy..

#3/5 - Porsche 964..
Simple yet elegant.. Goin bonkers for demm wheels..

Good job Mattel

#4/5 - Renault 5 Turbo

The most underated car in the series.

But this time I think Mattel hit a spot for this among collectors.

#5/5 - Mercedes Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evo II

The most awaited casting after so many sneak preview goin on the internet.

Simple design, nice detailing and those wheels hit the spot.

This surprisingly comes in a short wave in Malaysia market..

Sold out quite fast among collectors.

 Enjoy the pics.. and feel free to comment.
Cheers...
