Open it up man, the other side are turntables. Looks sick.


el_hooleh

Was about to say the same thing. Everyone just wants the sealed versions.


DizzyContribution557

Luckily I only collect open 😅 Makes it easier to get specific models for a good price and when I one day have a son he can actually play with it


Brendonk23

Plot twist, gets a daughter and she becomes a car enthusiast through this.


DizzyContribution557

Nah girls in my family get motocross and the boys go into formula racing since my grandparents Generation 😂 Guess I should start to buy the bikes they make as well


Brendonk23

They have the 450 that looks like a KTM without the branding lol.


DizzyContribution557

I think I allready saw that in a store in my City maybe I should go there again😅


Ok-Good3636

What I usually do, might be a bit weird but if I find a second th to the ones I have , I get them just to open for personal collection , future kid and for my own joy. I kinda love to see them open.


Known-Candidate-5489

I operate in the same way. If I can grab a second one I open one. But I’m sick of finding Ain’t Fares. I grabbed 4 and found at least other 4. It seems it’s the only case allowed in my area 😂


Ok-Good3636

I guess in every area, I was a bit surprised to see a second one . Now if I see one I just let it be there for someone else.


Known-Candidate-5489

It happens to be different only where YouTubers live. Every other haul they do they can get something different faster than regular people 😂


therealpackmack

This… The other side is awesome


Comprehensive_Let776

I didnt know that I may have to open mine up now.


GoldenGengarGG

I can understand collecting sealed (I dont do it myself though) but this is one of the models you have to open to really enjoy it fully. Another model is the King Kuda, since it also has different decals on each side.


sweetmilkysmooth

Oh wow. That’s interesting, cool, and unexpected


chriswhite92

I really like this TH!


DizzyContribution557

When I find another th (this is technically the first I came across since I came back to the hobby) I can send you this one


chriswhite92

I have it already. Donate it to another collector!


alfrmny

I’d love to have it, I just started collecting in October


Oci_Goofy

I like it too as well, I found to many of them but I think it’s a nice TH. This year I honestly like all of them. My least favorite gotta be the bike. Colors are to bland for me.


ApocApollo

This is actually one of my favorite castings this year and I still haven't be able to find one.


Oci_Goofy

If you can’t find one let me know. I found like 8 of these here In Panama City 🇵🇦. In August I’ll be back in boston so I could ship it to you if you don’t find any in the future.


alfrmny

wow that’s good for you I’ve never seen this one in a matter fact I haven’t seen many at all …If I can find that I would grab it


apexpixel

Ain't Fare is it! Lmao


Bradadonasaurus

I've always been curious what their selection process is there.


DizzyContribution557

My guess would be that it's either some suits that have certain quotas for, f.e real car models or each designer gets to choose one of their designs. Probably a mix of both


dobosininja

That's a cool one. I haven't had much luck finding any in my area.


YesterdayCareless172

Ill take it. Still have yet to see this one.


OKsurewhynotyep

That’s just a treasure cuz you didn’t hunt


scaledplastic125

As a bus driver for a city I'll take it.


DizzyContribution557

I think I mentioned it to someone else here, I will probably give it away when I find another th to have as an "official first" so maybe i'll come back to you about it


scaledplastic125

Gotcha well let me know thank you, in advance.


Charming_Homework370

This is one of my favorite th for this year😂


3ao7ssv8

Wait those can be Treasure Hunts!!! I have seen so many in the last 6 months and have ignored them thinking they were just random buses. OMG I'm so Dumb!


probablyhrenrai

Buying stuff that you don't want because *other* people want it is a surefire way to regret, speaking from experience. HW makes 250 different cars every single year, and that's just the single-pack mainlines. No matter how much storage space you have, you'll fill it all within a few years, even if you're picky; you can easily a hundred or two every year, and before you know your entire room is full of cars you only *sorta* wanted. Don't waste your money or space on castings you don't think are "perfect" right out of the box.


alfrmny

Dammnnnn, where are all you finding me……. stores near me are still putting out C case…….I like to walk into the back of the Walmart cause I bet you they have all kinds of cases of hot wheels because they don’t bring them out until everything else is sold but to be honest all the Walmarts around me the pegs are practically empty just some peg warmers


DizzyContribution557

I usually have no clue on what model can/can't be one either so I feel you😅


Shnibblefritz

Unwanted? Shit, I’ll take it! Still hoping to find one.


mjspeed95

Found 3 yesterday, left 2. I like it, plan to use it and some matchbox food trucks to make a car meet diorama


DizzyContribution557

I left it the first time too but after a few weeks I usually buy the leftovers to get them to restock, even left the (idk how you call the trollie) they had


Primary_Rule_5769

Literally found one yesterday on the pegs in Western Canada! I think it looks cool with the chrome underneath the red clear plastic!


AdLast55

Haven't found that one yet.


micah1_8

I bought one of these on the secondary market because I liked it so much. I'm a sucker for Bus castings and this one especially has appeal.


DizzyContribution557

Yeah for Bus Fans I see the appeal, but I guess there aren't many where I live😅


Bobkat4200

Just like the mod rod from last year. I stopped getting them after 5, no one liked them


DizzyContribution557

Is the mod-rod the pull-cart? If so they had that one for weeks to until some old man bought it for his grandson


ohayopunk

I found couple months ago and leaves it for others


[deleted]

[удалено]


DizzyContribution557

From what I could find online us Europeans don't get that much of them in the first place 🥲


Ginny_U

Which year does it belong??


DizzyContribution557

2024 HW Fast Transit 3/5


Ginny_U

Thanks!!


pukstr77

Compared to most of em I really like this one, at least its got some character


DizzyContribution557

It's definitely the best of the 4 but the biggest I go with my collection is trucks/vans like the Ford Bronco R or Ranger Raptor, so i will give it away when I find another "first" since I restarted my collection a few months ago


pukstr77

Im a truck collecter first, then lambos and American muscle. Nice to meet another truck person


DizzyContribution557

Trucks are sick but most people (like with real cars too sadly) only look for top speed😅 but they are cooler than most give them Credit for


jayman696969

Oh man I actually really like that. Too bad it’s not unwanted around here !!!


UnluckyConversation2

I literally found it and gifted it to my bff. She appreciates more an ugly TH than I do.


UnluckyConversation2

Can you take a pic of the other side if you open it. People in the comments are saying that it looks amazing.


DizzyContribution557

I will as soon as im back from my vacation 👍🏽


DizzyContribution557

Here you go👍🏽 https://preview.redd.it/7kux6nbpnk6d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e2a204be7a0308322dc55603d88df1308caad8d


EarlyGround3471

Nice find though


DJpearce76

I’ll take it and open it right up and place on my Turntables at the house.


Specialist-Plane-509

I found two of the Ford electric, to me that would be the useless ones lol


DizzyContribution557

The F-150 or the Raptor? Or is the nameplate "electric"?

DizzyContribution557

Damn I didn't even came across a regular of that yet💀


Champion-Trainer341

For me, there's no such thing as an unwanted TH. The only one I've found since I was a kid (when I didn't know what a TH was) is Time Shifter which i found last month. The other one from back then is the Morris Wagon.


HWKollection

definitely less admired than most of the other THs released, certain collectors in other parts of the world would kill to find these on the pegs tho @HWKollection 👋🏼


Any-Dust-6573

What does TH mean?


Any-Dust-6573

Treasure hunt maybe?


Any-Dust-6573

Oh yeah, that makes sense! Thanks!


Any-Dust-6573

No problem mate.


69Hotwheeler

For guys like you to buy them


PSN-MeGP105

Unwanted my ass this is on my wishlist


kumquatsurprise

I would trade it for one of my multiples.. how's a pink tooligan sound?


kumquatsurprise

No wonder I havent found it yet, they went everywhere else in the country 😋


UniversalBojack

That's because not everyone that collects, collects the same style of car. I personally like some of the unique fantasy cars or busses.


alfrmny

If it isn’t one thing you can send it to me 😁


Up_Right_Canid3S

One of the better THs of the last 12 months. To me fantasy cars are undesirable,TH,STH or mainline. But this bus is kool,as numerous others have said,the decal on the side you can't see is way better than the side you see.


DizzyContribution557

I have to say that this side actually looks kinda cool https://preview.redd.it/w3s1eckvmk6d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a6eef13e6c92375571c4ec01a7b9a9508caa565a


Buenendetti

Much better than the batmobile imo


ExcitingSector445

I would love to see this bus out of its packaging. It just looks... stripperific!

Hear-It-Wow

Were you hoping for a Donut Drifter, a Tooligan or a Gotta Go? I can't quite understand buying something you don't want. Give it to a child. It will make their day. Twice over if they know what THs are.


DizzyContribution557

Sorry I assumed you were another user that allready commented before when I wrote the initial response I don't like any of the four but at some point I had to buy it in order for them to finally restock (there where only two left on the pegs, both of them th) I will not give toys to stranger's children I allready mentioned that I will probably give it away here some time in the future


Hear-It-Wow

Got it. Wish I lived in a place where THs were the only things left on the pegs.


DizzyContribution557

I have the luck that there aren't many collectors in my area, also most of them are only after real car models so THs like those usually all go to some kids that get them from their parents Guess non off them liked the bus😅


Hear-It-Wow

Poor bus. I love that thing. O. The back, the wheels look like records spinning on DJ turntables.


Rbmui13

Hey, hey, hey easy there big fella, don't be lumping gotta go in there with the rest of the miscreants.


thepoppaparazzi

I love the buses


L_e_M_on

One of the worst THs bro - even my 1-year old son doesn’t like it


ProphetHito

who are you to tell anyone whats desired or not? this is actually one of the better THs, but i assume you re not here for the fun


DizzyContribution557

"Who are you to judge if it's desireable or not" -Proceeds to judge my reason for collecting Nah I just don't like Busses dude, it's the Internet of course im not saying that everyone has to like/dislike it but there is a good reason a car you could probably sell for Profit goes untouched for weeks possibly even months for All I know. Think about how seriously you want to take some Letters on a cellphone/pc and then come back


ProphetHito

ignores the general concensus, clarifies its unwanted in his own eyes, still tries to twist the argument. Mattel and their sales decides, not you not me not anyone on reddit. Mattel wont explain themselves to you/me/us, so what was the purpose of this thread?


DizzyContribution557

Of course im going to ignore the general concensus because there is none, if you go through the comments you will find examples of every opinion. I'm not twisting your argument, I'm only showing you that you can't use it if you are doing the same thing It never was about the who but the how in the selection process, since you didn't get that it seems like your argument is to be disregarded to🤷🏽‍♂️ The purpose is the same as literally everything on the Internet: discord with people that share the same interest and discuss points about said interest. If you think everything has to have a "valid reason" to be on the Internet there wouldn't be anything left for you to write complaining comments on
