A pair of pretty ladies, the Fairlady 432 and the Fairlady Z NISMO GT500. The 432 is a pastel tangerine and the NISMO is a matte black.

Nissan Fairlady 432 has a red interior and opening doors.

The Fairlady Z NISMO GT500 has NISMO livery, detailed headlights and a silver rear windshield.

Today's #PocketCar is a pair of Tomica #diecast. Kinda my own "Then and Now" mini collection.

The Nissan Fairlady 432 is from the '97 Birthday Collection and the Fairlady Z NISMO GT500 is from 2022.

They are going with me on a road trip, I'll have to be careful with the spoiler on the NISMO.

Hot Wheels Hi Beam from the Tokyo Olympics 2020 mini collection

At my daughter's gymnastics meeting and I wish I had this Hi Beam with me as my #PocketCar

Hot Wheels Morgan Super 3 in cyan with blue accents and "03" on sides and top, blank Hot Wheels logo and "HW/MM" on sides, "Super Team" on hood, Hot Wheels logo and white stripe along top

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels Morgan Super 3 from the 2025 Factory Fresh release. My daughter gave it to me as a birthday gift. She thought it was cool and I would like it. She's was right!

She got me a bunch of other stuff, including very cool gaming dice. But this is all I got in my pocket

Hot Wheels 2025 X-Raycers Crescendo in blue and pink with Black & Yellow stripes on roof & hood; Black, Yellow & Pink stripes, White accent "17" on sides

Today's #PocketCar is the #HotWheels 2025 X-Raycers Crescendo. I'm working from a café in Wegmans today, waiting for the new foster dog to get groomed. Off course, I have to check the pegs. Really happy to have found this colorway because it'll be Mira of Huntr/x for my #KpopDemonHunters team.

Hot Wheels 2025 Peak Pursuit Audi 90 Quattro in metalflake gray with black, orange, white, and yellow striping on hood and sides; detailed front fascia and headlights; "Audi Sport", "Audi quattro" on sides; "HWGRFX" on hood; "25" on sides and hood

Today's #PocketCar is the Audi 90 Quattro #HotWheels 2025 Peak Pursuit series. I love the silhouette of the car, but it's the details that sold me. The windshield wiper, the frosting to mimic dust and the driver side mesh really help bring the #diecast #casting to life.

Summer Motor Force Blue Ford Mustang S8502

Today's #PocketCar is the Summer Motor Force/Marz Karz Blue Ford Mustang S8502. This was one of the cars gifted to me recently and I'm not 100% on the identification. It's cool looking and another example of the wealth of #diecast cars out there.

Zuru Metal Machines Rev Rod is a black and gold pickup truck with chrome engine pieces and Nitro Rider is a brown colored hot rod with orange and amber deco, it also has chrome engine pieces

Today's #PocketCar are a pair of #diecast Zuru Metal Machines, the hot rod Nitro Rider and the Rev Rod pickup truck. I thought that they'd make a good #Gaslands Tryout Team for Rusty's Bootleggers. These sponsors provide loaner vehicles for new drivers to audition for Gaslands Roadshow Live! #GRL.

The Cadet from the Zuru Metal Machines line

Today's #PocketCar is the Cadet from #Zuru Metal Machines. Not the same build materials as #HotWheels, #Matchbox or even #Maisto, only the base is #diecast. But the design and sculpt are great for #Gaslands.

Pretty good stuff for just $1.00 USD.

The '70 Chevelle SS Delivery Wagon from the 2025 Hot Wheels Car Culture Fast Wagons series. Painted in yellow with detailed headlights and taillights, black striping, Yenko wordmark, "PERFORMANCE YENKO CHEVROLET Canonsburg, Penn" on panels

Today's #PocketCar is the '70 Chevelle SS Delivery Wagon from the 2025 #HotWheels #CarCulture Fast Wagons series. This is my second premium #diecast, and I only got it because it was on discount.

Like the other premium is have, I'm not sure if I want to #Gaslands it or appreciate it as-is.

Hot Wheels Shredster 2001 First Edition in yellow and orange with Silver Hot Wheels logo & "Shredster

Today's #PocketCar is another #HotWheels #diecast for a #MonsterHigh custom. The Shredster is such a unique looking #casting that I recently picked up at the local meet. This one will be for #SirenavonBoo because of the fins.

Something about the older fantasy cars really fit the Monster High vibe.

2025 Hot Wheels Chevroleter, 67 Mustang, and Land Rover Defender Double Cab.

Cool finds at the Dollar Tree this morning. I'm not really a Treasure Hunter, but I do like this Chevroleter. I'll probably keep it in the packaging until I come up with an idea or I add it to the TH collection for my nephew.

Surf Crate from Hot Wheels 2004 Roll Patrol in blue with Black, Yellow, Orange tiki statue deco on roof, and Yellow surfboard

Today's #PocketCar continues the #MonsterHigh for #Gaslands theme. This is the Surf Crate from Hot Wheels 2004 Roll Patrol. I'll be customizing this for #LagoonaBlue. I'm told she's more of a swimmer than a surfer, but I really dig this #casting.

Hot Wheels Monster Dairy Delivery Truck in tan with white & cyan milk bottles and graphics, red "Riehlman's", black "DAIRY DELIVERY CO", and Hot Wheels logo on sides

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels Monster Dairy Delivery Truck. This is such a fun little #diecast casting that has so much #Gaslands potential, I think. I'm going to make it a car for #AbbyBominable of ##MonsterHigh. I've got a snow plow to mount on the front as a ram.

The Hot Wheels McLaren W1 from the 2025 HW Race Day series is flanked by a pair of Czinger 21Cs from the Peak Pursuit series.

Today's #PocketCar are actually three #HotWheels cars. Like the other #diecast this week, these are going to be customized as #MonsterHigh cars. The McLaren W1 is Toralei Stripe and the Czinger 21Cs are the werecat twins, Meowlody and Purrsephone. Sponsored by Warden, with the twins as prison cars.

Hot Wheels Piledriver in light green with black, blue, & white graphics with '32' on sides

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels Piledriver from the 2009 Track Aces 5-Pack. This car is another one my daughter chose for a #MonsterHigh #Gaslands custom, #FrankieStein

It's all #diecast metal. The riveted panels are like Frankie's stitches. The engine is detailed.

I wanted this one, too.

Hot Wheels Twang Thang 1997 Rockin' Rods in metalflake red with Red, Purple & White tampos across top, HW logo on sides

Today's #PocketCar is the #HotWheels Twang Thang 1997 Rockin' Rods release. This is one of the more unique #diecast castings I have and it'll be customized as a car for #Operetta of #MonsterHigh. While it's not a classic car with a rockabilly aesthetic, it is very musical.

Hot Wheels '37 Bugatti 1981 Mainline in black and red, with white wall tires and all metal construction

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels '37 Bugatti Hot Wheels 1981 debut. My daughter selected this one for me to #Gaslands customize as a Monster High Robecca Steam roadster for her. I curse her good taste in #diecast. I was gonna save this one for me.

Gonna scrap a watch to source steampunk gears.

The Hot Wheels Classic Nomad 2025 HW Wagons release on burgundy with red pinstripe accent on hood, roof, and sides. "CLASSIC NOMAD", "C/G", "HW DRAGWAY", and Chevrolet logo on sides

Today's #PocketCar is the perfect companion for a road trip. This is the Hot Wheels Classic Nomad 2025 HW Wagons release. It is one of the longest running models, making is debut in 1969, though it has been retooled since.

Today's #DeskCar can't be a #PocketCar because it's still carded. Got this just for the deco. I have #Gaslands plans for the red one that I already have.

Do I keep this on card or customize it by adding details, swapping the wheels, and maybe painting the interior?

Yeah, my wife made the right call. I haven't been paying attention to the accumulation. I'm glad she watches out for me.

Still, I've got plenty for #DeskCar and #PocketCar posts and for #Gaslands projects. And I'm going to buy only at the monthly #diecast meet, with a limited budget.

My first Bluesky Feed, Diecast Hobby.

The "G.I. Joe: Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank Miniature Editions" kit by Running Press includes the miniature tank replica and a booklet with information on G.I. Joe characters and Cobra forces.

Today's #PocketCar can neither fit in a pocket or is even a car. Now that I'm fully remote, I'll won't be able to continue posting pocket cars.

So, introducing today's #DeskCar, the Cobra H.I.S.S. tank. This is a kit by Running Press and had lights and sounds.

Toralei Stripe and the Werecat Twins, Meowlody and Purrsephone.

A McLaren W1 flanked by a pair of Czinger 21c from the Hot Wheels 2025 release.

#PocketCar bonus edition!

I've been trying to find the right cars for a #MonsterHigh project, but I could not find the right fantasy casting for a high-end sportscar. So, I broke my own rule and got "real" cars. These cars perfectly fit the vibe for Toralei and Meowlody, and Purrsephone.

Fortune favored me for today's #PocketCar. Stopped at a store as part of my last day commuting to this office. I spotted a car in the dump bin that is from a new case. I didn't want that car, but dug around and found these three from my want list.

Hot Wheels '68 Corvette - Gas Monkey Garage 2025 release on metalflake green with gold and black scallop striping on hood, top and sides; "6" number plate & Hot Wheels logo on sides and Manson Cheung 5-Spoke tires with gold rims

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels ''68 Corvette- Gas Monkey Garage 2025 release. It is based on an actual real life car commissioned by Mattel. I think the real car is painted gold. I like this #diecast colorway better. Not sure I'll convert this for #Gaslands, it's pretty cool as-is.

Hot Wheels Fangster,and crocodile shaped hot rod.

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels Fangster, Mystery Models 2025 release. Had so much fun building the Ani-Motors team and found a lost Vampyra that I want to build another animal themed team. Along with these two room be a Speed Spider, another Mystery Model release.

#gaslands #diecast

Matchbox MB1366 1980 AMC Eagle in black with Side wood panels, and "Eagle" and "4 Wheel Drive" printed on it.

Today's #PocketCar is the Matchbox MB1366 1980 AMC Eagle. Picked it up as I like AMC cars and just don't see them around that often. I'm eagerly awaiting the upcoming AMC Javelin and Rebel Machine 2-Pack, but I'll probably never see it on shelves.

#diecast #164diecast #hotwheels #AMC #AMX

Five Hot Wheels cars with playing card deco (and one number deco) Ten - Turismo (1981 debut) Jack - Silhouette II (1997 Dealer's Choice series) Queen - '63 Corvette ( (1997 Dealer's Choice series) King - Street Beast (1997 Dealer's Choice series) Ace - Baja Bug (1997 Dealer's Choice series)

Successfully drew a royal straight.

These from the 1997 mini collection, Dealer's Choice, plus the Turismo as "10". There was a HW Art Car series, (2019) Jack of Hearts, (2020) Queen of Hearts and (2021) King/Ace of Hearts. Not a royal flush, however.

Hot Wheels '64 Chevy Nova Wagon 2023 release. Painted in red with black and white stripes on hood and sides, white roof with retro slot wheels

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels '64 Chevy Nova Wagon. This is one of those castings that I picked up just because it looked so cool. The colors, racing stripe, wheels, and profile of the car are just great. It would definitely make for a cool #Gaslands project, but I am loathed to convert it

2024 Hot Wheels Mainline release of the Jack Hammer in light blue with Blue, White, and Red checkered flag tampo, "JACK HAMMER" and "5" on sides.

Today's #PocketCar is the Hot Wheels Jack Hammer. It's a heavily modded 1950s Buick wagon and was featured in the Acceleracers movies. I like this casting, even if the body is plastic. It has such interesting greebles with the air intake and whatever is on the trunk.
