In this episode of Diecast Breakdown, Chuck is joined by regular co-host Mark and special guest co-host Derek (Honest Diecast) for a fantastic conversation with Larry from Lar.Real.Diecast!
We dive into the real-world highs and lows of diecast collecting—talking about everything from scalping issues to the thrill of the hunt, building dioramas, photographing your collection, and how humor and heart keep the hobby alive. Larry shares his personal collecting journey, drops some hard-earned wisdom, and reminds us why patience, passion, and community are the true keys to collecting happiness.
🔥 In this episode, we cover:
✅ How scalping impacts the hobby—and how to avoid feeding it
✅ Why patience pays off (and when it doesn’t!)
âś… Choosing quality over quantity in your collection
âś… The importance of emotional connection to your diecast cars
âś… Favorite diecast brands, dream finds, and growing trends
âś… Memories of Toys R Us, RLC releases, and rare finds at 7-Eleven
âś… The power of humor, giving back, and engaging with the diecast community

Well I've seen the videos, but I was I was saying, like,
is that you're like have you at one point and
like you will not see my face because I have
no head.

members on the Adams Family.

Speaker 3 (02:24):

movies and okay, do your thing.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
I don't talk about tiny cars on the internet.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, and I chose to talking about drink cars that
will never drive.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
So there you go.

Speaker 4 (02:48):
I mean, unless you want to do you have gone
in sixty seconds and just boost them, you know.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
And and I got some surprises here, and it's he's
Derek joining us, he said he ten minutes late. Derek
is the guilty one. Derek was he he made a
video of showing the iceberg of h I saw that

(03:17):
video and he made me, Okay, I have to try
something new. And it started by this these two right.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
On the left.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
Yeah, no, I created I created that monster.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, and after that, I am in that in the
iceberg already I got.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
I got Derek into Hot Wheel collection and die cast
in general, and my buddy or other buddy got me
into it. So it's been a Then he got me
into getting into the YouTube and all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
So full circle slippery. I believe that's called the Circle Jerk.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
I think that's a that's a Disney movie spin of
the Circle of Jerk.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
This is what one day? Where's the auditions for that? Yeah?
Now he's getting into the like, what what is he in? One?

Speaker 4 (04:21):

is really a jerk. Hey, yeah, guys, how's it going?

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Look? Mom, Larry? Look mom?

Speaker 2 (04:35):
What Larry? It's Larry? Yeah, that's me. Look how are you?
The thing is I've been telling them that I don't
have head. I was born without heads, and I can
only talk with microscopic mic microscopic mouth. That is here.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
He struggles with that one every time he tells it right.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
And it in my tips, in my fingertips, there's like
a microscope copic eye. So that's yeah, just the way
I can see what is inside of all these little
tiny cars they will never drive.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
So yeah, when you like dregs, his fingers got a
little microphones and fingers and dragons.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Breakdown all, right, Well larry's let's go back in. Time
let's talk about where your diecast journey. Began when did
diecast cars release to stand out for?

Speaker 2 (12:00):
YOU i would SAY i started collecting WHEN i was a.
Kid Hot, whales Match, box the usual, suspects the usual,
Suspects but that first batch of castings they are long.
GONE i don't know where they. Are they disappear in.
TIME i started my teenage teenage years AND i started Collecting.

(12:24):
Ferraris Actually ferraris is like my my my. Thing and
guess WHAT i started collecting one eighteenth prior to collecting
one one one sixty four again it was it, was it,
was it Was, ferraris AND i, REMEMBER i REMEMBER i
had something like this one. EIGHTEENTH i think that Time

(12:50):
Hot whales used to make. Them i'm not sure the.
BRAND i think it. WAS i had it read and.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
WHEN i some bigger.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Stuff, yeah SO i remember that Bb. LEE i also
had a three, sixty not this, one, obviously one eighteen's
exactly like, this. RIGHT i also Collected formula one cars
again one. EIGHTEENTH i have The Michael SCHUMACHER i, HAD

(13:18):
i had The Fernandos renald AND i also had The
Lewis hamilton in his first, season so, hmmm. Nice but
those CASTINGS i don't AS i moved and THEN i don't,
know they disappeared two. Time then COME i became a,
dad and then this toy collecting started back again BECAUSE

(13:44):
i had the pretension, like ohs were, kids and they
became that and became more toys and more toys until
my kids are are they? Already when the city's they
just throw.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
It, basically the kids had no toys and you had
all the.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Toys, yeah NOW i have all the, toys so and
and HERE i. Am THEN i started a YouTube channel
and blah blah blah, blah and that's. It AND i
decided to to use my powers to make this hard a.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Little tiny eyeballs on your.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Fingers so was there a particular incident that inspired you
to start the, Channel like when did you Decide i've
got something worth sharing THAT i wanted to get out,
There and what was that initial thing that led you
to hit?

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Record, okay there was another thing about. That one, DAY
i just decided to grab one of my kids. TOYS
i put it in a DESK i, use without any
notion of, oh go to make a YouTube channel or. Anything.
NO i used took a picture like like this on the.
SIDE i put some lights AND i don't, KNOW i

(14:49):
found that. MESMERIZING i found that picture like like very,
nice AND i decided to take more pictures and more,
pictures and SO i, asked so went on and then
you know, what one, day one DAY i, SAY i
have all these, toys why DON'T i just take a
pictures of each of the toys and just put it,
there just to see what, happens just innocently there and

(15:11):
just to. See but that evolve THAT i fell into
a rabbit hole in that evolve into cast, photography and
then it become too more collecting and Now i'm going
for like they really expects me. Premium so in short,
words it started with that cast. Photography you can see
that in my in my first, VIDEOS.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
I was like to go back to people's first videos
and SO i can feel how not so great they
were WHEN i started. Out takes a good hundred videos
or so just to get your feet.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Wet, yeah and one of those, videos for some, reason
it's gonna go. EXPLODE i don't know, WHY i don't know,
how but suddenly. HAPPENED i REMEMBER i posted a video
about The european cars and for some it's. Crappy if
you go and watch, it IT'S i get cringed every
TIME i see.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
It you're, like why did this video have to blow?

Speaker 8 (16:03):
Up?

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Yeah and then got twenty, thousand, okay sure, Whatever but
then one, day but NOW i change my. Content if
you also watch IT i. WAS i was doing kind
of like a S A. S i don't know how
yeah that, one but that that wasn't. THAT i felt
that that wasn't, me, Right and then one and then

(16:25):
one DAY i went to the. STORE i was looking
for this CASTING i. MADE i, made, YEAH i, MADE
i made a whole sag about. It maybe you guys
have watched the, video, RIGHT i was looking for this
and AND i saw one guy right there in the
aisle and he.

Speaker 11 (16:43):
Told, me, oh you know, what everybody who who buoys
so every collector who started doing this is gonna become a.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Scalper and, REALLY i was like. What AND i looked
to myself in the, mirror, like, oh oh, yeah that's
kind of, true BECAUSE i, was without even, NOTICING i
was starting to become myself on a. Scalper SO i
quite open eye opener in that, incident, right and after,

(17:12):
THAT i just spoke my mind LIKE i am right,
Now so, yeah there you.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Go, NOW i think IT'S i think it's very tempting
to go down that road because you get there and
you see a car that maybe you don't, want but
it's one that you know is, valuable and why not pick?
It up and throw it on eBay because or save
it as a bargaining chip or something something you can trade.
With there's there's plenty of excuse to do, that But

(17:37):
i'm trying to be better about just walking.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
Away if it's not one THAT.

Speaker 3 (17:40):
I want my own, collection walk, away just walk, away.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Exactly AND i didn't know that until that guy told me.
THAT i felt, like OH i AM i am my own. Enemy,
yeah and you know, What i'm, NOT.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
I am scalper because you.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Have no head, Though so he's just hitting his hands
together exactly, Exactly oh what AM i? Doing and then
you know, what after, THIS i pledged THAT i will
never spend a single dollar to any single Scap and
that's a. Way that's a way to revive this. Hobby,
right that's something that a lot of people. Like They, okay,

(18:21):
Okay i'm a bit hypocritical, here but the hype right
that New let me show you another one THAT i
have You, okay this, One formula, One formula, ONE i
almost have. It bye bye ah and come, on come, on,
guys let's. Go don't do. That don't do. That don't don't.

Speaker 8 (18:39):
It's not worth twenty, Dollars.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
No it's DoD it's not even worth five. DOLLARS i
don't not even worth three. Dollars, LIKE i pledge myself
that IF i don't see, it so be. It i'm
not gonna spend a single cent more THAN i.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Should OH I i learned that lesson very early on
in my return to, collecting BECAUSE i collected WHEN i
was a, kid and then they didn't Have eBay then
and now they Have, eBay and very early ON i was, Like,
oh this new hot wheels or this new match box
is coming. Out i'm not going to find that one
on the. SHELF i better pay five or ten bucks

(19:17):
for a mainline On eBay so THAT i make sure
you get. It and then of course you want to
get the combined, shipping so you end up buying like
eight or nine, cars and then all of those cars
you end up finding.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
On the pegs just a few weeks later.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Or the next, day or especially if you're not interested
in the design so much as you are in the casting,
yourself it's like a. CUSTOMIZER i really don't really care
most of the time about the paint, job Because i'm
usually going to just strip all the paint off. Anyway
BUT i did that so many, times and then FINALLY
i was just, like you know, what if it's if

(19:51):
it's even a possibility that the casting will come back
out and be on the, pegs wait for it To
it'll cycle. Through i'll find it either at the box,
store Or i'll find it a flea, market Or i'll
find it it something.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
Else it's going to turn. Up let it come to,
me you. Know and that's hard to.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Do, yes, yes, Yes and if even if he, doesn't
so be. It there's gonna be more better things to
collect in the.

Speaker 5 (20:18):
Future, yeah it was not for.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
You, YOU'LL i, mean you'll find it someday at some. Point,
yeah that's.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
TRUE i find all kinds of crazy Stuff i've, Wanted,
like for, example In, vegas we were there's this goofy
home improvement set That Hot wheels did where if It's
tim The toolman's crazy powered up lawnmower with thirty Three
ford and there's a Little tim and there's a little
Al Al and Everywhere i've, Gone i've seen it online

(20:44):
thirty five, dollars forty, dollars fifty, dollars AND i was, like, no, wait,
wait geta, Wait AND i got it for ten bucks
WHILE i was In Las.

Speaker 5 (20:52):
Vegas so, yeah.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
Didn't you an old guy down to get that?

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Though like, yeah, yeah But david's feeling much better. Now
it's just face first and then sticking next to, me
AND i just pushed him down for the.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Reason, yeah and this scene and this thing has become,
aggressive so aggressive then people has gotten arrested for. It,
yeah because they, fight they fight with with with other
people and like, no, no, no this is, this come,
on we're better than.

Speaker 11 (21:23):
This.

Speaker 4 (21:25):
NO i think that's why a lot OF i mean
a lot of people like myself have moved to just
the premium type. CARS i don't really do much hunting,
anymore so it's just a lot of the STUFF i
get is ordering it online but not paying the, markups
just paying the retail price for it and waiting patiently
exactly two.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Years so this right, here the rexy porchef from last,
year super, overhyped, RIGHT i think people were paying like
forty bucks for it, Anyway like because he's so, hot,
WHEELS i must have. It come, on, guys this beats

(22:05):
the crap out of it like ten, times, right and it's,
available it's right, There so, yeah and thank.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
You surprise point on that. ONE i heard about twenty Five.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
No, no, no, NO i. DON'T i don't THINK i
think many twenty.

Speaker 8 (22:20):
MINI gt like twenty twenty two To.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yeah, yeah most of the agt for like fifteen. Bucks but,
yeah especially something like that might push you more to.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Twenty but, yeah, right and and and and it's STILL
i still love How. Wheels who? Doesn't but come, on,
guys like the.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
Fact that people are, premium then all over. It that's.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Fair i'd rather get something like. This it's. Expensive another
thing that happens, That, yeah it's expensive for, Right but
which one you? Prefer would you prefer to? Have like
ten twenty crappy ones or half the one that you're looking?
For it's? Suspensive al, right but you this is what you,

(23:05):
want don't? You so, YEAH i get, This.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
YEAH i MEAN i wouldn't say that the other one's
it's just not it's it's for a different.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Purpose, yes, sorry My french is a.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
GOOD i, GOTTA i, GOTTA i gotta back up my
hot wheels guys a little bit over there that they're
they're doing a completely different thing at a completely different price,
point so they're gonna have. Compromises but you're right if
you wanted to have it and have it look. Good,
NOW I i the thing that drives me nuts about
that is the people that would, say, well I'd i'd

(23:37):
buy The i'd buy the Hot wheels, anyway because it
ain't the same without the, flame OR i. DON'T i
only collect hot, wheels SO i only want interested in
the roxy that's from A rexi that's from hot. Wheels
and it's just, like, okay, man, whatever if it's your,
money LIKE i, mean that's the thing is by what you.
Want but at this and AND i would even, say
if the IF a IF a mainline is worth twenty

(23:59):
bucks for, you all, right go for. It maybe maybe
you live in a place where you don't think that
will come up. GENUINELY i fortunately do live in a
place Where i've got a pretty good selection a lot
of the time IF i IF i time it. Right
BUT i hear what you're, saying, LIKE i, AGREE i
would buy the mini any day of the week and
twice On sunday BEFORE i buy The Hot wheels version of.

(24:20):
It Because David john's has turned us all into die cast.
Snobs but, yeah, Exactly but, NO i THINK i think
The Hot wheels version has its. Place but you're, right
it's it has its. Place it's just not on any
of our, shelves is my take on.

Speaker 8 (28:43):
Larry he already kind of answered a question for. ME
i was in my.

Speaker 9 (28:49):
MIND i was, wondering Is larry really like the way
he is in his videos in real?

Speaker 8 (28:52):
Life and we've obviously gotten that. Answer.

Speaker 9 (28:55):
LARRY i just WANT i want to SAY i love
your videos because you really bring an element of relatable
comedy to your videos AND i love. That is that
something you just thought? Of or have you always been this?
Way or and and and what was what was your thought?
Process and how AM i going to integrate like relatable

(29:16):
comedy into?

Speaker 8 (29:17):
Diecast?

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Right so again you see my, my my eyes are right.
Here SO i take that power for. This and you,
know you, see LIKE i see other YouTube channel that
you Simply here is the New porsche nine, eleven please buy.
It here is the here is The skyline?

Speaker 5 (29:40):
Line who does?

Speaker 2 (29:41):
THAT i don't, KNOW i don't know Some, OKAY i
don't want to say, anyway and like really is that?
Fun like and seriously other YouTube, channels of course they
have the privilege to get like ahead of anyone anybody, else,
right but they don't tell you the actual collecting experience

(30:02):
what it really, means, RIGHT i get like cast collectors
once you see the new case coming, up and then they,
see for, example The Optimus, prime gotta have, it gotta have. It, Ah,
OKAY i need to go directly to Eva they have
like a short cut to go To evay and they're already,
there right to buy. That and that's that's what people. Do. Right,

(30:24):
no let's let's not do. That let's, guys let's not do.
That let's let's be. Real that's WHY i say the
reality do we need to be? Real like these, castings
you will not find it in a. WHILE i don't
believe so IF i had a miracle In christmas THAT
i found, this, right but AND i already have that

(30:46):
mindset that that's not gonna. Happen that's WHAT i tried
to tell my, audience, right and and enjoy what you.
Have that's that's another. Thing because of, THIS i also
feel that last YEAR i fell into a rabbit whole of, addiction,
right that anything THAT i wanted to. SEE i want to.
GET i want to GET i want to get get get,

(31:07):
get get get get get without even looking Like I'M
i really AM i really? DO i really like? This?
You so like last year a bunch of them that
main lines THAT i was thrilled WHEN i got, them
but now they are laying around in the floor and and,
yeah that's another thing that we can all, relate, right,
so oh for, Sure and we need to find the

(31:30):
humor of.

Speaker 11 (31:30):
THIS i cannot be, like, hey, guys something happened to.
ME i am addicted to. Castings oh that's very.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Bad oh you have to tell it like like it
is like, like, okay let's ALL i see around around
my house and it's that all, that, Right so, YEAH
i think it. Was it's gonna it's kind of funny
but at the same time.

Speaker 5 (31:51):
Tragic, Yeah i'm With. YEAH i started down this rabbit
hole OF i had to have three of each one
THAT i.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
WANTED i wanted one to, customers one that was a
backup in CASE i messed up the, customization and then
a third one to keep. Stock AND i was, like
this is this.

Speaker 5 (32:09):
Is not a good way then a fourth one just
in CASE i decided to, Exactly.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
I've Got i've got A i've got a, bin one
of those those shoe box sized plastic bins that is
full of just the speed bump crushed car casting BECAUSE
i liked it so much THAT i have just bought
every single one THAT i, saw AND i have probably
more than a hundred of them, now and because because
they would make a great they make great diorama. Fodder

(32:44):
they're they're a great crushed. Card AND i was, LIKE i,
NEED i need to have these because, yeah because but.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
But another THING i want to, say like like like
what you said the, truck if you like that's that's
another THING i cannot like tell you what to, do
because if you like, something if you love, it well
nuts do it like, moderation, right.

Speaker 5 (33:06):
Yeah, Exactly, yeah you gotta you gotta, learn got to
learn your own.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Limitations limitations they.

Speaker 8 (33:15):
Have Like, Pacific, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
PACIFIC i literally have like a couple hundred dots and
five ten main lines just BECAUSE i could never leave one, behind.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
And i've given most of them.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
Away but it's it's nice because NOW i can IF
i don't want, THEM i could just give them away
to either kids or other collectors that never found, them
like The momo ones and The general, ones WHICH i never,
found but Like derek sent me, one and lots of
people have sent me. One so you have to rely
on other, collectors your friends to send you stuff because

(33:50):
they'll they'll totally do. It so if you want That
Optimist prime or whatever you, want you can just put
it out there and somebody will somebody will find it
and forever and send it to.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
You, Sure, yeah that's.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
NICE I i need to do. THAT i need to
start giving away like all all the other the other

Speaker 8 (35:17):
Breakdown what what castings do you gravitate?

Speaker 9 (35:22):
Towards do you have a specific, taste because, like from
What i've seen so, far it looks like you have
a pretty broad taste in, Cars but what really grabs your?

Speaker 2 (35:31):
ATTENTION Jdms, right J dms like in one, category, Right
PORSCHE us in another, Category ferrari and, yeah And formula one. Right,
however SOMETIMES i tend to go for like the. NOVELTY

(35:53):
i love This continental, like oh, Yeah i'm not a
really big, fan and of, CLASSICS i. Don't it's not
LIKE i hate them or. Anything it's just that but this,
ooh look at that beautiful.

Speaker 5 (36:12):
Man beauty is a nice. ONE i do like that casting.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
In Match Box Oh, Matchbox, yeah it's, deep kind of appreciated,
sometimes but there you.

Speaker 1 (36:21):
Go, yeah every now and then the main, lines especially
in The matchbox one surprised me with a really nice looking.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
Casting and Also i'm starting to like tomka or, TOMKA
i don't know how to pronounce, it all, right so
it's pretty. GOOD i changed the wheels of this, one,
Right the wheels were really, crappy but AFTER i swap,
them it's one of my favorites, Now so there you.
GO i also like, art. Seriously that beautiful brong there

(36:53):
also hypnotized me to get it. Right, yeah it's it's
it's it's such a beautiful. Art the some of these
cars have so and and that's something About Hot wheel's, collectors,
right they like to keep the. Gardens, yeah the.

Speaker 4 (37:09):
Car is, important BUT i think that a lot of
that is like marketing and draws you in and just
we're just talking about this. Today but The Major ett
And jada, cars like the the card art on those
are just, amazing really. Clean so that's Why i'm going
to pick up some of. Those have you do you

(37:30):
dabble on some of those brands like? That have you
paid attention to The majorrette And jada collaboration, THERE i
mean those that have been together for a while.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
Now, no, no, NO i know About majorait passed by.
THEM i look, THAT i look at them my audience
sometimes Do majorit AND i tell, them, yes YES i,
will but for some, REASON i don't, KNOW i always forget.

Speaker 4 (37:54):
Them you got to check out the new one that
they have that's coming, out because it's a lot Like
MINI gt type, quality much much different packaging and everything
interested and and a very cheap price POINT i think
eight dollars or. So oh, yeah, yeah like relatively cheap
and probably cheaper Than Hot wheels premium because those are

(38:16):
like probably approaching ten bucks or. Something NOW i DON'T
i haven't bought one in a, while BUT i know
that they've always been around seven eight bucks at like Wal,
Mart so those are, yeah those are gonna be something
to keep your eye out on because those are really
nice looking.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Cars oh, yeah oh, yeah better Than Hot wheels of,
course but yeah, yeah but, yeah some REASON i ALWAYS
i always ignore. Them they're, THERE i know, them it looks,
nice BUT i don't know there you can only ignore
them for so long, exactly kind of, like oh, yeah you.

Speaker 5 (38:51):
Can only for so, long you, know for so, long
and then you have to put them in your.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
Podcast, yeah AND i also AND i also like movie.
STUFF i also made a video about the my story
about The, DeLorean right WHICH i STRUGGLE i struggled to
get it that it was during that time that that
was a die, cast THAT i must have, it THAT
i must have, it the delare.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
Back in time exactly.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
Exactly SO i got. IT i got it in the. Store,
haha so, happy. Yay but after like a few, WEEKS
i was they were there in the floor and and
that hit, me that really hit. ME i really wanted that,
Casting and now they're in the. Floor what are we doing?
Here so, YEAH i made a bit about. It but,

(39:42):
again it's not to to to to bash. Anyone it's
just something that, happens AND i believe it has happened
to any of. Us like you can like, you like, You,
Derek you can turn back and you can see all
your beautiful collection, there and then one day you, say
really before like WHY i.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
Don't want any of?

Speaker 5 (40:03):
This bye?

Speaker 8 (40:05):
Garbage AM i ruining my?

Speaker 5 (40:07):
Life how much money was? This exactly?

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Exactly but you never never asked that of.

Speaker 5 (40:14):
Yourself you will run out and then.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Then he moves on to collecting teletuppys like.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
When you when you when you work on an old,
car you never ask yourself how much did this all this?

Speaker 5 (40:24):
Cost?

Speaker 3 (40:24):
Me?

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, OKAY i sold my. Collection Now i'm gonna Collect
fuberja eggs or. Something so, YEAH.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
I THINK i think IT'S i think collecting die cast
is a lot like. Gambling you don't spend what you
can't afford to, lose because Don't you can look at
it as an investment and yeah maybe maybe sometimes you
can flip it and make a little.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
Money but if the rest you're going to lose a
bunch of money.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Off, yeah, exactly, exactly flash new flash. News these are not.
Investments they're not just like for themselves in, general high
dollar cars. Anyway this is this is the way that
we enjoy cars that we will never own, basically like

(41:08):
only like a billionaire will own all this in real, life.

Speaker 5 (41:12):
And then he won't get to enjoy. Them they'll just
sit in the garage.

Speaker 4 (41:14):
Somewhere, yeah most of those guys don't drive their cars very.
Often oh, Yeah Jay leno drives quite a few of.

Speaker 5 (41:21):
Them but, yeah but He's Jay, leno j Len jay who.

Speaker 2 (41:27):
LENDOVER i also want to show the the only rollc
THAT i.

Speaker 8 (41:33):

my video about the awful truth ABOUT. Rollc right THAT
I i got, THIS i was really really like really
wanted to have, That. SUPRA i was, like, Yeah, Supra
i'm bons have that car and that this Right for some,

(42:01):

Speaker 3 (42:34):
That's twenty five dollars twenty dollar hairs.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Right so but guess what what are you buying? Here
is The Specter? Flame only right because the details are,
right And i'd rather get. This, Ooh i'd rather get.

Speaker 9 (42:52):
This and to the to the to the ROC's, credit
it is leaps and bounds above any mainline or premium
one that they've come out. WITH i think the body,
proportions the fact that it doesn't have stagger wheels and
stuff really makes it stand.

Speaker 8 (43:07):
Out but, YEAH i agree with what you're, Saying, Larry,
yep it's.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
NICE i mean, AGAIN i get a lot of heat
sometimes that because Oh i'm bashing hot wheels and blah.
Blahlah i'm not bashing, you stell. You you're telling you
their REALITY i like and what.

Speaker 8 (43:24):
You think of.

Speaker 4 (43:24):
It because everybody has their own perspective on types of,
cars AND i think a lot of PEOPLE i think
have gotten out of R. LC i haven't boughten about
one in years because it's the, whole the whole process of,
it just trying to trying to get. Something especially the
ones THAT i like happen to be the same one
that everyone else.

Speaker 5 (43:44):
Likes so, Yeah i'm. Lucky, Yeah i'm.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
Lucky the RLCs THAT i like are the ones that nobody,
wants like The, power The, kuda and the.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
The, van The Dodge. Van The Dodge van was The
Dodge van was very. COOL i like that one a.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Lot and The Monte Carlo, lowrider the like Seventies Monte
Carlo lowrider is a very cool. CASTING i like that
one a lot. Too the ones with the adjustable, suspension
those are. COOL i actually liked THE Vw Bus monster
truck that nobody, liked the purple one that came out
with the big engine in the back and the scoop
and it was like on off road tires AND i was,

(44:23):
like that's.

Speaker 5 (44:24):
FUN i dig.

Speaker 2 (44:25):

r for some. TIME i mean it wasn't available for some.

Speaker 5 (44:33):
Time mm.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
HMM i thought that was one of the one of
those that they was gonna go in before before we,
release right like sold, Out but, no they weren't.

Speaker 5 (44:43):
There the elites are.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
GOOD i like the.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
Elites The bugatti five nine that was in The elite
line was, good and The Landa River discovery with the
optional like rufracks and bumpers and, stuff.

Speaker 8 (44:57):
That one was.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Cool so but, YEAH i agree with you, though even
even then at the price point of twenty five bucks plus.
Shipping you know MINI gt that you can get for
the same price Or Tarmac works or. Whatever but it
depends like The tarmac is not going to do A
barracuda or A Dodge van anytime. Soon well, Actually Tararack

(45:21):

Drift Dodge, van the later.

Speaker 5 (45:25):

Harry potter.
