[QUOTE="Jeremiad, post: 106709, member: 3108"] I picked up a couple of car sets for my boy after he was born (Toy Story, and Star Wars vehicles), and kept them in the package. I mounted them high on his wall so that he couldn't reach them, and told him that they were collectors and that they were just for looking at, and someday they would be worth good money. I almost cried the day that he got smart enough to climb up onto his dresser and tore them down, and ripped open all of the packages. That weblink has a few interesting cars too. I obviously do not have a Beach Bomb, but I do have several Surf Crates, and a few Deoras (I dig the surf boards). I'm not really a collector like the ones described in that page. I don't collect the cars for their value or rarity, I buy the cars that interest me. You'll never catch me spending thousands of dollars to buy a diecast. I have a few redlines, but it is quite common for people to know they are worth money, so it's hard to get them at a reasonable price. Every now and again I find someone who has no idea, so I get a good deal. Thanks for bumping this up! It reminds me that I need to take some pictures! [/QUOTE]
