You have an incredible collection too John, should I call the local news channel? 😉

Wow Bob. If I count all scales I have about 400. You have 15 TIMES THAT!
I have a modest house and honestly I wouldnt have room for more then about twice what I have.

George, I love the quote you mentioned about a collection of twelve.
As I always tell people, it doesn't mean anything to collect if you can't share it with others. The biggest thrill I get is showing the collection to other car enthusiast. I repeat to all of you on the forum, if you are ever in Mississippi I would be thrilled to share the collection with you.

Thanks Rick. I believe you are due for a return visit which I would welcome.

Dennis you are a funny man. You are always welcome and you can bring Martha and Janice along if you think you can handle both at the same time.

John, your addiction seems to match mine and I appreciate that you share it with all of us on the forum.

Phil, 400 is a sizable collection particularly since your's is primarily all in one scale. I also know that your collection is made up of quality pieces.

Stay hooked John. It's great to have a hobby that brings you satisfaction.

I don't distinguish - they are all "models" to me, plastic or diecast.
And started this hobby in 1974. Have come to realize that while I'm a car guy, I'm much more of a "toy car" guy. HAve met some really great folks along the way as well.
