Thats a cool set-up, lots of nice cars there. I used to have mine displayed, but moved to a different place and just dont have the room anymore. Nice stuff :thumbsup

I have hundreds of 1/24th scale Dub City Die Casts. If you notice, there are several in the lower right hand corner that are not open. And on the top, there is a very rare limited edition all chrome escalade. And yeah... Those are legos up there. I got back into building them when they came out with a bunch of new military sets. I had 2 destroyers, an aircraft carrier that was 3 feet long, tanks, and a few others.

Here's my collection, some is Franklin Mint cars, others are what I've built. I prefer plastic kits to diecast.

Here is one I built, I put a six cylinder in it instead of the kit's V8 just to be different.

I want to buy dicasts of the cars I previously owned, but cant find them. I'm looking for a 92-96 prelude, 93-2000 eldorado and 2000-2006 tt non-convertable. Any ideas where I can find them?

[lordairgtar]

Would this suit you? It's a kit, you would have to build it or find someone to do it.

[LEWETHETIGER73]

The TT is the only one I think they make off hand but I don't know for sure. What part of town do you live in? I can direct you to some toy shops that might have them.

I wish I had the patience for those plastic kits. Thats some talent with those.

Pro SS is a major talent, he should post some of his.

[PB86MCSS]

I used to crush alot of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars with our vice, as well as a hammer :D . Still have alot of nice ones though but I don't think they'll ever have any value.

Nice die cast collections posted, I just have a couple Monte SS's (85' by Ertl and 87' by Wellys) and a brazen orange 06' GTO by GMP in 1:18th. For 1:24th a couple Monte SS's by Maisto and a few models I built. Someday when I have my own basement I'd like to furnish it with some more detailed 1:18th scale cars.

[Nix]
