I only buy the ones I like now. Which line do you collect? regular or the more expensive ones?

I've been collecting since like I was 6. Have over 300 in the package probably with a handful of treasure hunts in there too.

I've got a few Rubbermaid briefcases. Here's one of em with a bunch of Fatbax (I love this series)

why do u keep them in the packages i dun understand why ppl do that, like i know u want to keep them mint but don't u wanna open the package & stuff for shoots

i also collect matchbox,Tomica & other various brands as well, but i have a hard time keeping them cuz my dad thinks im to old to be playing with toys so he would sometimes donation my cars to needy kids

Used to for a couple years... but stopped buying them probably about four years ago.

Back then, had time in the morning to drop in to Toys R Us in the morning when they opened, so I have a few of the special edition unpainted ones... forgot what they're called now...

But yeah, I think I have a couple hundred of them all still in blister packs... just packed in a few orange cases...
