Y'know Tim, it's just not right that you have all those kits while other (me) styrene addicts go hungry! Congratulations on a very impressive collection and a wonderful means to display them.  By the way, is that very impressive hunk of beef-cake in the first photograph you?  |

Before it gets too overwhelming, I'd suggest shipping out a few (or more) of the cars to some deserving klowns ... and on the plus side, that could free up enough room so you can put a chair in the room and not sit on the floor! |

Most of these kits I accumulated over the past 15-18 years. I'm not too many kits shy of having a complete TD collection. (I think thats like a few cards short of a full deck...?) I can thank some of this bunch for help with that too, between tips from the whole bunch, and big help from AJ and John Greczula on the really hard to find stuff. I shot these picks last week. I felt kinda wierd posting them after seeing the Barris collection (very impressive), and was hesitant to do so. I figured someone would think I was saying, "those are kool, but lookit' mine".....I'm not like that. Some of you had seen some old shots of this same stuff. I've just been reshooting alot of old builds. Sometime in the future I'll take them all out and do them one-by-one again. Yeh, Tom likes all my junk too. He has an exact copy of the Honest Engine in the case. I did them both at the same time, and gave him one for his birthday a few years ago. He also has a S'Cool Bus I built for him a few years back. I feel almost guilty. I probably have more autographed TD stuff than anyone on the planet. He has signed most of my boxlids, Hot Wheels, sent me photos, cards, artwork, all signed. He truly has been a good friend and inspiration all these years. I feel privledged to know him. I shot some stuff of my Roth cabinets too. I'll post them later tonight maybe. my face is draggin'...busy day.....Hungry, and need a beer...... Oh yeh, thats my ugly mug. Beefcake? Naw, more like beef jerky....... |

Super nice collection, Tim! And a lucky s.o.b., too, you can display yours, everything of mine is boxed in storage, until my daughter moves out, and I have some space again...

Pretty cool collection Tim-Bone. If'n I had work space storage like that, I might not have sold off most of my builds over the years.
Oh well, like a wise man once said, you can't have EVERYTHING, cuz where would you put it?

Nice collection there Tim. Couple of questions though. Where did you get the figure in your Sand Crab from, Is that Tom? Why is the BADMAN sitting higher in the back than normal, or is it lowered in the front?
Where is the original Poison Pinto?
Show me more.
