I've switched over to 1:43. Much greater selection of models, and more room for display.

Barry, do the BINOCULARS sit close to your 1:43 cars? That's they only way one would be able to see them. I have a friend who has several of them, and seriously, they are so small, that unless you are standing right in front of them and up close, you can't see them.

Sorry, I don't knock you for what you like to collect, but just saying that they're NOT for me.

1/43 or 1/24, the same when examining closely. Not much dfference from across the room either.

way too many

I had a friend who was an enabler. lol. So we bought a LOT of cars in 2018 and 29. Sadly he passed in October and I still find myself wanting to send him a message or show him a new car. But in the past 2 years, I've added around 125 diecasts. Most expensive was the Hirohata Merc in 2018 that started me finding FM and DM for cheap. Wife lets me keep around 200 cars on display in the dining room from 1/64 up to 1/12 (plastic and diecasts).

Sounds like a quarter mile of little cars. How fast did you get there John?
