My new passtime

I was wandering around this board the other day, reading random threads and stumbled across the threads with random toys. While I am not a collector by any means, I suppose I'd pick up a GN toy just for the hell of it- that is until I saw the posts with some of you guys with all off these great TR toys! So now I'm hooked and figured I'd post a few pics of my meager collection.

Nice start. Beware, getting hooked on this stuff can get as expensive as racing.LOL Good luck!

Exactly why I won't allow myself to get interested in the diecasts. I would love to collect them but I spend enough money on my real Buick, don't need to start another money pit!

Your collection looks good so far, just keep picking them up whenever you come across one in the stores and you'll have plenty.

I figure the cheaper ones aren't too bad but the more expensive ones are a bit much as I have too many real cars to play with too.

I don't have a 1:1 scale GN anymore so I collect the little ones.

(I probably spent enough on the little ones to afford a real one.)
