Congratulations on an awaesome haul. The Tomica Limiteds are truly stunning and I love the Aurora Galaxie and Corgi Eldorado. Happy to see your patience was rewarded with such a nice example of the Corgi Magmum. Thanks for sharing |

Whoa! WAAAAAY KEWL! I have never seen the Corgi Magnum before, that is truly awesome! And the Granada Ambulance is off the chart! (Do they make a hearse?) Best of wishes with college! Have you figured out a major yet? |

You must have stepped in a big pile in the last few days to have scored that much cool stuff in one place! Congrats. |

Just looked these over again- in addition to the rest, the Russian cars are noteworthy finds anywhere, even more so in the US (are they marked in Cyrillic or Western European alphabet?), the Capri, Playart BMW E9?, vans and Renault R5 Turbo get my seal of approval for obvious reasons to those who know me well (on or off the Garage), and I have the twin of the Polistil Rolls-Royce stored away. I never liked it as a kid since I thought the shape was way off compared to the small- and mid-scale Polistils and later to the 1/16 Fiat Balilla, Morgan, Alfa 6C1750 and BMW 328 that I still covet, but kept it anyway since it was a Rolls-Royce. Unfortunately the tires disintegrated...
