Thanks to this board and some of its members, my son has become a car squashing junkie! I hope it's just a phase or I'm going to have to hide all the good stuff. :unsure:

LOL!

Soon he'll have his very own stack of flattened cars. He needs the Hot Wheels junkyard to display them all in. And some tow trucks, a few JL PIPs, and a nice big flatbed... :thumbup:

I had to laugh when Bray told me about this "phase"!

You see, Bray and Swifty were over at my place Sunday and he saw some of the cars I crushed and then he overheard how Mookie flattens his cars.

So Bray, how flat does a car get with a 7 year old jumping on them? (or do you give him a hand)

Hope it is just a phase. You don't want to come home and find all you WL's "customized". ;)

He is officially 8 years old now, and no I don't help him. He has been using the bed post method with varying results. The HWs aren't flattening as much as the cheap junk he's been testing. None of them are as flat as your hydraulic crushed cars :D

The cheap junk cars are awesome to crush, you never know what'll happen to them, whether they'll just explode or keep the same shape for a while

I went through a phase where I crushed everything with paint chips. :( Not a good idea. I crushed an ungodly amount of cars. :(
