re: Other Toys...*pics*

A week or so ago there was a thread here about toy TR's...I used to be into collecting all kinda of car memorobilia but haven't kept up with it in the last few years...Anyway, heres some pics of a few areas of the houses where most of the stuff is.....There are more "stratigically placed" cars around too.

This is by far the most clutter area: The basement....The pic doesn't really do it justice, the wall on the left continues with more shelves and posters all the way to the other end of the room.

My office: Not quite as bad as the basement

Office again: My two favorites!...Note the TC steering wheel on the wall for safe keeping /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif BTW: That lamp and headboard are only a temporary fixtures in the office....wouldn't want you thinking it was cluttered or anything /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

Very nice. Most of my diecast cars are in the garage, but there are a few Barbie Corvettes running around my daughters' rooms.
 
WOW! What a collection. You have some really neat cars there. BTW, do you have have full time staff that goes around dusting all that stuff?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazyeyes.gif
 
Fantastic Collection!

must have taken some time to put all that together.

(hows the wife feel bout it?) /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/england.gif

I think it's a great collection but as Kodanja implied I know my wife would have thrown all those wonderful collectables into my only space...The garage! The garage is the place where she throws everything in the house she no longer wants to look at. Including me! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Very impressive, I also had a smaller collection, but after my grandson was old enough to play with toy cars, I kept finding him using my cars as his toy of the day. I'll wait till he's older before I start collecting again.
 
I noticed the blue diecast on the lower shelf in your office photo. Looks like a Bugatti with cycle fenders?
Reminded me of a Delehaye that I saw in a Bugatti Restoration shop in Northern Colorado. Here is a pic. It is one of two.

Surprising my wife does all the dusting.....Hence the reason most are in cases...It's kinda hard to see but shelving unit in the office has a plexiglass front to keep dust from getting in there..Those ones in the office I've had since I was just a young guy.

That Skyline is pretty sweet.....One of my kids has a big truck of some sort like that....It's actually just cut off in the basement pic, it's right beside that wihte vent on the left wall....Thats one thing I AM ready to throw outin the garage because I keep trippin on the dang thing.

Wow, that attack car is awesome...is it street legal?
 
I like that! Where's he gonna put the front marker plate? Same place as mine under the seat? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
 
Who's the cutie in the bikini (in the picture on the right side of the shelf of picture #3) with the guy holding in his stomach?

See, I do pay attention to details!!!
 
That would be my wife.....and I'd be the guy holding in his gut /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
heheh I spotted that too (bikini pic that is), but I diden't want to be first to comment.
Nice collection!
My collection is all in boxes. Real and model come to think of it! I'll have to do a few lineups and take some pics.
