    Hey guys, Im looking to build a small collection of models, anything from Hotwheels cars to more detailed and/or larger models. But Im not looking for ones that cost hundreds of dollars. More detail/quality is better.

    Should I just cruise ebay/toys r us a lot or is there any sites that cater to this kind of thing?

    thanks guys.

    Oh, and I picked up this little guy today. not much, but it was like $1 at my local hobby shop. (sorry for the blurry pic)

    ok. I just hate ebay at this point. so much searching to find something good for my price range.

    I did just find one deal that seems decent, an enzo & an F40 1:18 60th anni from hot wheels I believe, for like $32 shipped. I will share if I pick them up.

    For Hot Wheels and the like hit up Wal-Mart and Target. For the bigger stuff, Ebay will be your best place if you're looking for deals.

    Stick with 1/64 scale. Kyosho makes great detail models for the price.

    This site sells mainly 1:64 cars but is always loaded with Ferrari Hot Wheels.. Just be sure to check each sellers feedback.

    I hope its okay to post this site. The sponsors here are not really into selling 1:64, but If so my apologies.

    I've used RepliCarz for years and the service is great.
    I also recommend Derrick at Toronto Motorsports
