Matchbox *shrugs*

Actually have a few limited edition things in boxes. Nothing really special - but worth a small amount.

Attention to detail is mind boggling, not cheap but the quality is amazing.

I've got a fair few models. Used to build those plastic ones when I was younger, now I just stick to buying diecast :P Occasionally I'll get them and lower them, stick a blower through the bonnet..etc but only on the ones that don't cost $150+
I'll put up pics of a XR6T modded to look exactly like my car once its completed.

Got a few, only really collect Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche road car models though. I try to avoid Hotwheels as they just look shit - rather get less models but have quality ones. 1/18 only.

Minichamps have just realised a few MV Agusta models so they'll be my first bike diecasts.

That's a cool set-up KAL SPL.
I like the 3 different scale's of each car.
Will probally take that idea when i get a collection big enough. :)
