2012 HOT WHEELS RACE RODS 5 PACK - '10 PRO STOCK CAMARO (WHITE) WHEELS VARIATIONS OR ERROR? + 2011 THRILL RACER ~ VOLCANO #205 SKULL CRUSHER (CLEAR ORANGE) ERROR: FRONT BASE RIVET UNSPUN (NO RIVET) SPOTTED! - 13.APRIL.2013

The 2012 Race Rods 5 Pack series - '10 Pro Stock Camaro (WHITE) with wheels variant or error was spotted at TOYS R US yesterday when i was headed there to search for the 2011 mainline series #205 Skull Crusher (TRANSPARENT ORANGE) which i was so interested in recently. Previously, i already have the stock for these 2012 RACE RODS 5 PACK series but i did not notice any wheels variants or error for it until yesterday, when there was a few packs for this same 5 pack series and i was line them up for a comparison and i tell you straight, i didn't expect to find these.. Check it out..

And for all these years to come, i have never seen a RED CHROME RIMS WITH BLACK 5SP WHEELS until now. What the market has is the RED CHROME RIMS WITH CHROME 5SP WHEELS which first released in 2009 U.S. WALMART EXCLUSIVE EDITION. I also went to southtexasdiecast.com (note: this site as almost a complete database for hot wheels entire series) to check this out to see whether there is a wheel variant for this. But there is non for this wheels variation. And so, i think it is safe to say that this is an error wheels then (correct me if i am wrong).

So, i must thanks to my search for that 2012 mainline series #205 SKULL CRUSHER (TRANSPARENT ORANGE) and again, i didn't notice that the front rivet is missing until i bought them home to take some photos of it. haha :D Check it out..

THE REAR RIVET IS STILL INTACT.

Overall, the card is still in good condition. A rare find i might add.
And so, i need to find another one of this just to open up to take a closer look at this fine casting some other time. :P
Well, i am so crazy about this casting SKULL CRUSHER right now so i will do a deep review on this model at my upcoming post, alright. I know that not much people like this casting but some might be interested in. :)

Alright then, i guess that's all for now.
Thanks again for visiting my blog & i hope you enjoy the pics up there and i will share more info with you all soon like always, ok. Take care, people! :D

2013 HOT WHEELS 13TH SUPER THUNT$ WINNER BEEN SPOTTED & TOP CHOICE SELECTED GOES TO - #167 '10 TOYOTA TUNDRA (RED)! - 13.APRIL.2013

Finally, as of today, the rumors has been wiped out and we have spotted the true identity of this year's 13TH SUPER THUNT$ been selected which goes to 2013 HW SHOWROOM - HW HOT TRUCK #167 '10 TOYOTA TUNDRA (RED). I'm not sure what is the exact color of the body paint but its kinda look darker tone spectraflame red, i think. Previously I have posted on 3 finalist cars which one will be the one selected to be this year's 13th super thunt$. You can check it out HERE. Some famous blogs has already been spotted this treasure hunt such as the lamley & t-hunted. Check it out..

This is gonna be very very exciting for all of us once this came out in carded form either US or INTERNATIONAL carded. Check out the base.. is it made of  DIECAST/METAL form??!!!
What came into my mind is this - HOW HEAVY THIS CASTING WILL BE? :D
Until this casting is in my possession, i will have them weighted and give you a precise figure, ok.
And as for the tires, this might not be the best choice for this casting (my opinion) and i might choose this tires for this casting instead..

The rear wheels in a bigger size of course..
But, we have no choice because its MATTEL's decision then.. haha :)
Estimated to have a sneak peak on the carded form for this casting should be around the corner soon.
Once i have them, you will be the first to know. :)
Alright then. Thank you for visiting my blog. Until then, take care! :D

2013 HOT WHEELS CUSTOM ZAMAC VOLKSWAGEN KOOL KOMBI - CURIOSITY TO SEE HOW IT LOOKS - 9.APRIL.2013

After we have seen the first batch - 3 cars set zamac edition:
001 - '69 MERCURY COUGAR ELIMINATOR
002 - CLASSIC NOMAD
003 - '71 HEMI CUDA

I've always been curious about what it will be like for some other interesting cars such as VOLKSWAGEN KOOL KOMBI (first body color - GREEN) which was first release in 2013 mainline C cases in early NOVEMBER 2012. And so, times has pass us by so quick that i don't have the time to do it until yesterday when i have the time to really concentrate doing it.. hehe.. :)

This was the beginning when you first think it was easier to remove the color from top roof top, but i tell you.. IT IS NOT EASY as it seems.. you must have steady hands & don't rush just to see the end result.. 

The very beginning of removing the roof top..

And finishing of the side body color..

 The removing process on the side body color takes alot of concentration...

Later, i test on the original CHROME 5SP WHEELS to see how it really looks..

 For me, it looks speechless.. haha.. :D

After the looks of the original wheels.. i try to fit in the rubber wheels (RR5SP) to spice up the looks.. :)

You know.. it took me 6 hours plus just to remove the body paint... :P
To have a beautiful thing, you need to sacrifice in order to gain it..
I love to test the limit of oneself, not to show to other people but to show it to yourself.. If people say can't do it.. very hard to do it.. impossible to achieve it.. don't let them pull you down... challenge yourself.. that's what my nature is.. i don't consider myself expert.. but to tell you the truth, i beginning to enjoy even more of exploring more colors on just one model.. hehe :D

This picture of ZAMAC VOLKSWAGEN KOOL KOMBI keeps popping up in my mind.. can't even sleep properly all these & just there all the time.. stuck in my mind.. so, yesterday was my day of satisfying myself & it did satisfied me.. haha.. :)

I hope you enjoy these photos of mine..
I thank you all for visiting my blog and for your support and i will do better to update you all on latest trance to give better view in good nature for collecting hw cars & enjoy it every day of your time, ok.
Take care everybody.. see you all soon. :D
