I would've thought that many marble collectors are also Hot Wheels collectors because they were both popular in the 60's. I know that my brother was a collector then and I used to love looking at these miniature cars. I just loved the little details on them.

HotWheels are another thing I collect. They used to cover every square inch of wall space in our spare room. Most were boxed up when I needed the room for other uses. Still have a couple hundred in there though (wall and 1/2 and display shelves over the doors).

Kool! I set up the big oval with two of the garages that shoot the cars around. Wife never seen it before. Shot some vintage cars around the track!

One of these days we are going to run a couple lines of orange track across the house and see which of the loose cars is the best. Smile

I have the Johnny Lightning Sizzler track and a couple of the old HotWheels Sizzler cars/chargers that work with it too. We pull them out and play when our brothers and sisters visit (youngest is 35). Laughing We are all still kids at heart.

Cool Dog! I collected them for a short while and then got out of it. My other main collection was Star Wars. (that was my era) I recently sold it all off on E-bay for storage reasons. Good thing marbles are small so they only take up half of the house....and some of the garage.

Dog-

Do you have a lot of redlines? I have a lot of newer ones starting in 97' and then a few from when I was younger. I put together a few sets of the first editions, and have been fortunate enough to find a couple treasure hunts along the way.

Nice Collection!!
