MrRegieRitmo Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 Is that the SR? I've got the Minichamps Nova/Corsa A SR in white. Surprising how nostalgic I've got for them as I always hated Novas when they were mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Lobster Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Got anymore of these yet? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0361016647No Can get any number of the rest of the range but they are sold out everywhere. Actually, one supplier has a box of them which is already 'sold' to some shop or other. However, said shop hasn't paid / collected so if they don't then they are mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotorabia Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 My model of choice when i was kiddo in Scotland was Majorette...i really liked the French perspective...I added to the Tonka collection substantially this weekend...i happily paid $30 for three big quarry trucks..to add to the red Jeep...the pit-bull chewed up Hot Rod...the car transporter and the three mini sheep trucks...

pogweasel Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I may have asked before, but is there a 'shiter's discount' available at LobsterDiecast? There's some things I fancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRegieRitmo Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 Congrats Pog, consider yourself converted! I haven't seen those Tonka things for years, especially the large dumper things. I was never sure about the small lorries, looking like they were based on something from the future therefore I couldn't relate to them being someone that really appreciates detail & accuracy.

Mr Lobster Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Will that be 'off the Bay type deals?' Preferably, yes. Saves having to give eBay the arm and leg they currently charge y'see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogweasel Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 This Avenger Tiger looks a good place to start. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vanguards-HILLMAN ... 0354447099 Also, are the 'hidden treasures' range still available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Some of the Hidden Treasure stuff is available, some of it long since gone - A35 & Dolomite are still available, Marina, Allegro and Minor under CPT are long since out of stock which is a pity.I'll sort a price out for that tonight and send you a PM...

Mr Lobster Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Of the Hidden Treasure series, this one seems hardest to find. We did find a box of them last year but sold them all. Wish I'd kept one for myself really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
