1/64th collection.

I have this in the background while I model. Lets see some more collections. I have been to the Peterson Automotive museum, so don't try to pass that huge collection of Hotwheels off as yours. Haha.

Re: 1/64th collection.

1/64th? that's HO scale, right? or are those hot wheels/matchbox/majorette/johnny lightning/road champs/ertl/tootsietoy/made in china/made in taiwan/other offbrand cars?

great collection, and even better organization for them things you've got.

I've probably got a collection of 350 or so, but they're all so heavily used, they would only be worth like, 20¢ each ... but hey, all the better, because I could never part with my cars!

so yeah, are they hot wheels, or model railroading prop cars?...

oh, and what software is that on your monitor? ... never seen that before

Re: 1/64th collection.

Nice, i'd like to see a closer image of that lime green AMX.
And yeah, what's that software? :? And the car too, in fact, what's that, one of those 1968-1970 b-body mopars, or what?

I have some of those too (mostly matchbox/majorette), but not nearly as many of them (about 15-20 so, half of which are seriously "rotted").

Nice collection, though it's pretty much the same car, is it?

Re: 1/64th collection.

All of those on that wall are johnny lightning American muscle cars. No rice at all. Its split up and grouped by manufacturer and sets. All the shiny ones in front are holiday muscle for instance. Maybe 550 cars total or so. that's Maya 7.0 on the screen. I have another smaller collection on the other side of the room of the premium hotwheels. There are a few duplicates in the collection of some rare cars but only about 3. I'm modeling a b-body mopar (If I have to tell ya it must not be good). I like the johnny lightnings because they look real and they strive for accuracy with stripes and all. Instead of paying $3 for the ATM I go to target or Toys R us and buy a car and get cash back. Screw the banks I would rather pay dollars on the penny for cheap chinease products. See the result. Probably about 25k in ATM withdrawls right on that wall.

Well, it DOES looks like b-body Mopar, but i meant that i can't tell if it's a '68 Superbee/'69Roadrunner etc. From that pic i only can say that it isn't a 1970 item.
