Slot cars and Die-cast cars at Hobby lobby

Ойын-сауық

On my other channel ‪@TriGogglin‬ I railfan and play with model trains, and in one of our railroading communities live streams ‪@BoxcarJerry‬ The topic of slot cars came up. as to weather people are still into that, Oh yeah it's still a big thing, and one of the chanels of slot cars that I watch is Kenton ‪@slotcarsandhotrains‬ he does live streams on Thursdays and invites you in, and he shows you his Hobby Lobby hauls, so I figured I'd show a bit of what our local hobby lobby has to offer. please stop by Jerry's and Kentons channels and show them some love..

    Oh I'm with you on that, as time goes on the die cast cars have gotten more detailed. Way more expensive though, I am modeling trains and some of the disaster for that is insane.. I always stop in the car section in every store that might have one.. just to look, really appreciate you watching.

    You are not a senior just a big kid at heart.👍. I'm 57 and work at a small stone quarry , mostly the front end loader but sometimes the 6 wheel drive truck, D 6 dozer and the plant so I tell everyone ( especially kids) I still play with Tonka toy only real ones. I am slowly going to do a train lay out and thinking about getting remote control excavator, dozer and such.

    $2.69 for a bottle of Testors ! I can remember when it was $0.015 ( 15 cents ) per bottle . An AMT 3 in 1 Trophy series 1/25th scale model kit went for $1.79 plus tax . The Sixties and early Seventies were a great time to build models .

    The Hobby Lobby craft store in this video was founded by David Green. The online "Hobby Lobby" (no longer in business) that sold rc related products was founded by Jim Martin. They are/were two separate and unrelated business entities. I do recall making a few orders from the Hobby Lobby rc catalog, along with Tower Hobbies, and Omni Models. My local Hobby Lobby, I know this can be confusing, has a decent supply of hobby stuff and "toy" grade rc. I mainly go for the model cars (40% Off), glue, and paints. Although I have purchased a couple of the Bachmann N scale train sets and some of the HO slot cars.

    Hobby Lobby is about the only show in town for hobby supplies in my area, all the old hobby shops are gone. They have a good selection of paints and tools, but slot car stuff is limited. They only carry AutoWorld HO slot cars, and they are the old pancake style which are slow and de-slot easily. The inline AFX Mega G+ are the best major brand ones out there now and Hobby Lobby does not carry any AFX. There are other smaller companies out there also like Viper Scale Racing. Those cars are incredibly fast and hug the track.

    I am amazed that Autoworld is now a dominant "brand" on the slot car rack. They started as mail order. My brother and I pooled our money around summer of '69 and bought an Aurora set from the AW catalog (the AW catalog was like the old J.C. Whitney car parts catalog - onion skin paper). I had an Aurora Baja Bronco - exactly like the one they sell today. A year ago I donated all my HO track and cars to a young man at work that is a great modeler. I know it's in good hands.

    Yes that is true for the 70s on up generation but the history of the panel van goes way back, and the old timers while i was growing up still called it a panel van, even the Ford pinto cruising wagon was called a panel van because North American panel vans were initially based upon the 2 door station wagon models, while Europe's narrower roads dictated that panel vans utilize the smaller donor chassis of subcompact cars in that market.

    Sad to say you are right, problem with ebay is every one thinks they have something special and want way to much money and always over charge you for shipping. So you really gotta want it if your shopping on ebay. Since posting this video I been told they stock the slot cars very often so I should check back every other week to see what's new. And for 20 bucks, witch is cheaper than a towards website. It may be worth a stop in from time to time.. appreciate you watching..
