How can people have that many die-casts?

Mike,

I collect just to collect. I usually don't have any intention of modifying them.

The number I have now is nothing compared to some others I've seen...

haha... my friends say the same thing... i've been collecting since i was 11 or 12 years old... used to get 4 a year... 1 for the b-day, 1 at the Auto Show and then 2 at christmas... but once i got my job and i could afford more, and i discovered ebay, well... it's been diecast collecting like a mad man... lol...

Good thing I haven't registered for Ebay yet. :evillol:

To me, collecting these is more like getting cars I know I will never own much less afford.

Yep thats how I think of it, buy the cars because in real life I couldn't afford half of them. BTW You have more diecasts than a walmart at Christmas

I guess I'm not used to seeing built models all shown at once. The guys in the other model forum have thousands of unbuilt models...its crazy.

I'm at 175 last time I counted. That count is from last year though. I've gotten a few since, I'll probably take some new current pics so that you all can see.

I've really fallen off since I haven't really been buying much of them as of late and there are some nice ones out there now that I need to have.

Not at all. This is a big place and while I mod all of AF, I need all the help I can get. Besides, I had an idea for the Diecast members on here and never really got it off the ground. Maybe now it can happen.

Either way, it's good to be back and you will be seeing more of me around here. If anyone has any questions, as always, I'm open to answer them.

P.S. Don't let my cynical behavior discourage you from talking, asking anything. :evillol:

Hello Hobbes! Good to see you again. But I agree with Mike and I'm creating a new thread with all of my cars. However, I'm in the process of finding a website(free) to host my pics. Then I will create a thread to show them.
