H0 cars bought in 2023
#11

Auto World was having a sale on IWheels cars. So, I finally broke down and bought my first two. I'm breaking them out of the box, and changing the chassis/tires. I consider them ordinary cars. I just like the colour.

   

I looked at these bodies for sale at $16 USD on the Jag Hobbies site too long before hitting the buy button, and lost out. I ended up having to buy these in Canada at an expensive retail store before stock was sold out everywhere. The price tag is visible on the GT40. Scary at $51 Canadian, eh!

Nico, what a coincidence, I went to a swap meet in England at the weekend and got a VW like yours. I also picked up a silver Porsche 959.

Just got back from holiday to find the latest acquisitions waiting for me. Hard to say which I like best as they are all little jewels. Any of the Ford's though, as the 1:1 Camaro is just an ugly duckling to me, so I'm a bit prejudiced about the 1:64th version. Sorry Camaro. Bigsmile

My biggest buy so far: 
  • 7 Mega G‘s NOS, 3 of them unpainted (No, the good ones without the “+”) 
  • 2 Mega G‘s short version 
  • 3 T-Jets 
  • 1 Dash
  • 1 AFX G-Plus
  • 1 AFX MT chassis
  • 1 AFX MT
  • 1 AW MT
  • 4 T-Jet bodies
   

The front row, the Capri and the Porsche 911 are running great, nice torque. The rest needs little to non tlc.

Any hints on feeding a family on 10$ per week? :D

Some unusual cars/bodies in that lot. Care to list/identify some of them from the first two 'attached file' photos please? 1:1 and HO manufacturer would be good thanks.

Those are all resin bodies, can’t really tell from whom. All German guys, maybe one of them was Stefan aka CrazySlotter. I’ll ask him. The former owner of these slot cars died last year  unfortunately. 

I’d love to know what the blue body is in 1:1, does anyone know?

OK, sorry to hear that. Just curious, that's all.

Me, too! :)  I’ll ask a friend who does a lot of resin bodies and knows a lot of resin artists over here, he’ll know who made these.
