Looking on the kit boxes, you can identify that he is collecting this since early 90's or so

He sells them on ebay, and the price never goes under 20 bucks
His ferrari kits are 75 bucks + cents...

That's correct. The tan boxes are RC car bodies, and some of them aren't cheap either. Many come with plastic details like wings and mirrors and such in addition to the lexan bodies. I've seen a simple Honda Accord body with mirrors and a wing and a very small decal sheet go for $45 new from Tamiya.

Well, that all depends. Yeah, I have way more kits than that. However, I build more than cars and the majority of cars I have are AMT and Revell. I have upwards of 800+ kits, consisting of armor, cars, aircraft, figures, etc. My attic is a goldmine.

That is cool!

My Hobby shop has more than that but that is one HUGE collection.

When it said Chris I first thought FOTW but not him.
