Mini Haul @ 2/1/10

Bought these from fellow LYN member mushr00m. I already have the Pontiac Firebird, but it was years ago, and the condition is not entirely great. As for the Ford Focus, I already have a blue color one. I love the Hot Bird's tempos, as it is very bright and sharp. Although the card labels the Hot Bird as a Hot Bird, the base of the car states it's a Pontiac Firebird. Cool. The green Firebird 400 is a loose car I also bought from him. It seems, that now I may buy some more muscle cars and uncard them. The coolest car, to me, is the one he RAOK-ed, which is the Horseplay. Personally, I'm not very much into HW Original cars, but this one is just cool. The body of the car is transparent, and so is the wheels.

Thanks again to mushr00m for these great cars.

Tomica Evo X vs Hot Wheels Evo X

Here, I am comparing the Hot Wheels and Tomica Evo X. Which one is better? You guys be the judge.

From these pics, you'll notice that the Hot Wheels' rear bumper is sharper than the Tomica's one, which is a little too "soft".
From the front end, the Tomica's headlights are either painted on, or not painted, depending on variant. As for the Hot Wheels Evo X, it is a separate piece.
The Hot Wheels has bigger wheels when compared to the Tomica.
Notice how the Tomica does not paint the rear foglights and does not have the Mitsubishi logo on the boot. And the lights aren't exactly accurate.
Another rear shot. Notice how the Hot Wheels' rear spoiler protrudes out more than the Tomica's. It also seems "sharper" than the Tomica's.
Up close front shot. I do think that the Hot Wheels Evo X is a bit more aggressive, although they're both the same car. :p
The Hot Wheels Evo X, from here, has a sharper front when compared to the Tomica Evo X.

So which one would I pick? It would definitely be the Hot Wheels, as overall, it's a better car.
