Glad to see you took them out of the packaging.




.

I have 8 of the display cases on the wall, then another glass cabinet full and many on the wall. I only tend to keep the ones with card art I love or have sentimental value. If you study the photos the chase, supers, RLC, elite are all open. I sold on one chase and one super as I didn’t like them but otherwise most of them are free!

Asda were surprisingly well stocked for once, nothing hugely exciting and I seem to have accidentally fallen into a colour theme...

Finally found the Jaguar, randomly in the WHSmiths in Fleet Services on the southbound M3. Pricier than normal of course (£3.50) but as it was in my hands…

Finally!!!!! Looked everywhere and for so long. B&M had two displays of Wheels, first one had decent ones but nothing special, so glad I carried on looking.

Very nice collection there Froomee. One I really regret putting back was this, I really should have bought it frown

I was having no luck hunting down these so relented and ordered from the ever-reliable Modelmatic.



And while I was there, as a life-long Tamiya R/C fan, I had to pick this up. It’ll display nicely next to the 1/10th buggy!

Thank you, started with hot wheels again when the kids were young, still love the occasional hot wheels.

But soon found that there were super detailed 1/64 scale alternatives.

I like photography, so I bought some and started shooting them on my car roof.

Hot wheels are a gateway definitely.

But I think the mainlines are still cool, love the hunt.

Not a particular MI or BMW fan but I liked it. The Meyers Manx, though, is adorkable.

Our local supermarket appears to have runout of both Hot Wheels and Matchbox. However visiting 2 different shops resulted in:

An Alfa


And a Motocompo!

Having moved into a new house following a divorce I needed something to fill the space under my TV (my eldest nicked the PlayStation for his bedroom) so I chucked a few hot wheels under. Only, now I can t pass a hot wheels display without having a rummage. I sense this gets dangerous quickly doesn t it?
It s outgrown the space under the TV and moved to the living room
Windowsill. Apparently this and some other decor ideas gives teenage boys bedroom vibes but, I don t care.





I was in smyths yesterday shopping for my youngest boys birthday. Picked up the lemans legends set. But managed to resist and put it down again.
