Ive just started to collect hot wheels cars (the small ones!) and just wondered if anyone else does so?
If not then u may want to check out the range available at http://www.hotwheelscollectors.com or take a look at them in your local toy shop. U can get some good ideas for colour schemes for your models from these little cars.
Ive also been checking out the craze of customizing them and there are some amazing pieces of work out there, take a look at these for starters...

Here's all I have: http://www.jayratkowski.com/pics/hotwheels1.jpg
I like their 1/18 diecast a lot actually... and am starting to have a decent collection of them.
