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. _________________ Lizzy

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). _________________ Jane |

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! _________________ Road Dog |

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.
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). We are all still kids at heart. _________________ Jane

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!! _________________ Mike
