Funny! - you included that rocket. 😀 😀 Nice 4-car hauler, it's a good start. 😏 😏 😏 It's a very fine collection but you need some Taxis, Ambulances, and Hearses - or do you consider those "professional vehicles?"

I did add two more, though!
Yeah, you got me there.... I have no rockets and ONLY a few buses - in N-scale, packed away with all my trains.

Wow, those sure are all nice ! What's the story on that silver Crown Vic ? I'm kind of surprised that nobody's ever made a model, or at least I've never seen one, of a "honey truck"...😂 I guess it would probably be too difficult to do all the "weathering" to get it looking just right.

Is that rocket a cocktail shaker? It looks like a lot of '30s Art Deco designs.

@rich-sufficool ....allow me. No, it's a relatively new (and heavy ) piece that's actually a lighter. When that slide-button is pushed, a realistic blueish flame shoots out the bottom. The kicker is that the sound of those flames mimic rocket-thrust noises. It's very cool! 😎 😎

@rich-sufficool Yes, they were truly something special. I have two in 1/64, but at one point I seriously thought of purchasing 10 more to replicate the complete set of 12 that traveled throughout the U.S. during the 1950's. Your 1/43 "out of the muddle" example is terrific and photographs very well. 😎 😎
