New batch of Jammers arrived so now that I have a safe place to store the cars, it's time to DLM them! I'll post the aftermath 'Swifty' style in their Jammer case at a later date. For now, enjoy the 350+ cars that I had the joy of opening by myself over the course of 2 late evenings (while my son was soundly sleeping in his bed of course).

When you open them, could you show what the "treasure" is in the Treasure Chest models?

Oh sure, I'll take a pic of them tonight. Just some stickers and tattoos. Totally lame and not worth the inability to properly stack them (and extra space they took up) in my tupperware!

Hahaha I probably could've used some help; my thumbnail felt like it was going to separate from my finger after it all. Sure was fun though!!!

Don't know how old your son is, but maybe he would have loved to help, or is it maybe that some would have ended up finding their way to his toy box. :lol:

DLMing is something I'd been thinking about recently, I'm kind of desperate, with my small place to live and no space to keep the 100's or maybe many many hundreds of blister packs. Problem is, no jammers to keep them all in if I do.

Will you be keeping the box to the boxed (non-blister) Matchbox models? I usually do, as I've heard that's most of the value, and I can remove the model from the box and display it (which I can't do with blisters)?

Are the wheels on the Sierras laser wheels? And looks like a great DLM party.

Now I know we talked about the fact that it was lots.

But I didn't know it was this big!

Now this is the sort of event I could enjoy. I don't tend to have problems with my thumbs opening up so many. I am sure they are so used to it now they have hardened to them.

But I don't want to see the before pics, I want to see the after pics....

Wow! I don't even think I've ever seen a store with that many in stock at one time! I have over 150, but it took several years to get there.
