Did a video of my AUTOart Aventador. Still look at this model everyday, absolutely gorgeous:

i'd be so paranoid about breaking that wing

Came across this:
2531 Ontario Street, Vancouver - 3 beds, 3 baths - For Sale

Looks like Wilkinsons building on the market. they gonna move?

i don't know what made me cry more... the possibility that wilkinsons might close, or everything that mortgage rate calculator spits out is so far above anything i can afford :cry:

doesnt seem like they are selling the business though, more like selling the place upstairs.


Im sure ted is just looking for a bigger place to move. Never knew his loft upstairs was so awesome.

but the description says "PLUS 1682 SF main floor retail store/office" :o

hmm.. gonna poke around him to see whats up.

i emailed tim. the news is not good. cannot say much more until they release some sort of official statement soon :cry:

Can anyone help me find a Black Honda diecast (metal)? Looking for anything sporty, S2k, NSX etc. Sorry if I'm not very specific, but it's for my son's birthday, and all he'll tell me is that he wants a black Honda.

Looked through a few local stores and I can't find these cars anymore. Only "sporty" one I could find is a Honda CRZ on Aliexpress. :(
New 1:32 Honda CR Z Alloy Diecast Model Car With Sound&Light Black Toy Collection B220c-in Diecasts & Toy Vehicles from Toys & Hobbies on Aliexpress.com

Any help appreciated.

omg but we were just talking about wilkinson's! :facepalm:

does it have to be a current model?

Thanks! First time in this thread. :)

Edit: Just looked through their website. Unfortunately they're all quite a bit more than I would prefer to pay; not that it had what I was looking for. Looking more for a toy rather than a collectible.

what is your budget? i am guessing from your aliexpress link it's roughly $20?

you could try trolling toysrus or walmart, etc. for hot wheels but the color you want could be difficult to get.

like this (example): http://www.ebay.ca/itm/MATTEL-HOT-WH...199f76d&_uhb=1

or ebay...

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Honda-NSX-Bla...5de4cf0&_uhb=1

I'm mainly looking for something under $40. I've always bought the 1:18 Maisto diecasts for him, but finding a Honda, and particularly a black one's been an issue.

Thanks for the help!

you could try that store across from TnT supermarket at metrotown... their prices are a bit on the high side but since they cater to a more asian crowd they may have more hondas than elsewhere.

NOOOO ,first scale18.com now Wilkinson's?

this is so depressing... :okay:


its vancouver's automotive mecca.

It's actually not bad at all! Really well built

They have these really small I think like 1/48 scales that are Honda's. I saw a EK and an NSX (IN BLACK!) they were like 35 bucks though and they were really small. Be warned....the 1/18s that they have are collectables and I've seen an autoart nsx there for like $300

i'm really starting to get into resin models now. i used to think that not having moving parts made them worthless but there if you are going for detail at an affordable cost it starts to make more sense?
