    I thought that I might as well give this thread a bump, Saves someone having to make another thread for the same topic.


    God dammit I am starting to run out of display space :p

    I have some hotwheels from my childhood and I have gotten into collecting 1/18 models recently. This is what I have now:

    Nice thread, so glad it was bumped!

    I have a few models taking up... pretty much all the available space in my former bedroom in my parent's house... :D

    Here they are. I moved a few years ago, but I'm yet to find a solution to take them with me, so they stayed, piled up and scattered around like this... :(

    I am really loving this thread! :D

    As for me, I collected 1/64 Greenlight Vehicles. I've also started a new hobby with smaller scale vehicles, mainly 1/87 scaled vehicles. I love to create scenes with with them. For example, putting them with a few figures into the real world and shoot them from their perspective, so it make the world look big!
