I have one of the last of the fist and one of the last of the last Camaros. :scratchthinking: I would like to get a few more but they take up to much room.

When the new ones come out, your last-of-the-last won't be last anymore. :) :( :thinking:

I have over 300 plastic scale models that I plan to build some day. I have three cars not counting the one my wife drives. And I have some old camera equipment.

The only real thing I collect is Hotwheels. I have over 1000 on my shelf in the media room. almost all of them have been open & played with by my son. I have also been accused of collecting older Coleman camp gear. I don't know why..... :roll:

I don't guess I have anything original, just a few small collections of:
Hot Wheels
Models
Action figures and
Nascar.

Oh yeah, I've got several notebooks full of sports cards, etc. I thought I'd cover all the bases, as it was. :lol:

DOH, you had to say that. Bad memories. Bad, bad memories. :(

I had a pristine collection of Matchbox and Hotwheels cars from when I was a kid (1960s), stored in Matchbox collector's cases. I had them stored at my parent's house when I was in college, and when I bought my first house, I went to get them, and found out that they had been stolen by movers, and my parents figured I wouldn't care, so they didn't file a claim.

So, about 300 pristine Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars from the sixties were basically "given away" to some guy who probably sold them and bought a new car for himself.

Grrrrrrr. :x
