Hotwheels Collection

[Clay]

Just thought you guys would like to see my son's started collection, there are more then this but not much more.

I opened one of the singles and forgot how fun it was.

[Nick F40]

good to start early. I have cases upon cases. This brings back memories.

[Clay]

Bet you can't guess what the one in the top left corner is

[Nick F40]

Oh, I don't know, it just shows it in the case and the artwork. I have that same one in orange, I like the blue though.

[Clay]

Its the new Studebaker At-A-Tude funny car.

Anyway here is his monster truck collection so far (you know better than him not have any!!)

For those of you that don't follow Monster Jam on Speed, from left to right, Predator. Maximum Destruction, Iron Outlaw, Virgina Giant, Scarlet Bandit, GunSlinger, not pictured, Bounty Hunter.

And these things are rated for their age group!!! They show that they are played with by a 17th month old

[Nick F40]

At-A-Tude, thats it, I couldn't think of the name.

no Monster Mutt?

At-A-Tude, thats it, I couldn't think of the name.

No not a full collection yet

[Nick F40]

I am definetly not going through my cases now but I think I see it and it is silver actually, it just has orange clear parts. I also have a blue one actually.

Ditto.

I don't even collect them but I keep picking New issues that are interesting.

My son(in his 30's) bought me one a few years back and I made a mistake of telling him how cool it looked. After that whenever any special time came up there was another one. All the family then thought I loved them,so you know what happened then. Well, then I started finding ones that hadn't been bought for me. Lucky for me and my lack of space, my grandson(who is eight) loves them also. He thinks grandpa is so cool and loves it when one of my Hot Wheels rolls his way. He knows my collection better than I do. Sometimes I buy two of the same car and put them around my display. One day he will come in and inform me that I happen to have two of the same one. Yes, one goes home with him. I am in my 60's but this has become a fun thing for three generations. Can't beat that. Glad to see another family having fun. Richard

Thought you guys would like this picture.

[marinewifejones]

we need a pic of him in his "like father like son" shirt while he is playing with all his monster trucks

[marinewifejones]

hey clay which one is Little Tow and which is Zooy in your siggy pic?

for those of you who dont have young children, TLC has a show all about bigfoot's son and his friends (a cartoon obviously) and david loves it of course

[george 53]

Heeeeyyy Ani, hower ya feelin? Nice to hear from you again! Is David really small, or are his trucks bigger than normal hotwheels?I've never seen those particular truucks but they don't look to be normal hotwheel size.Are they 1/64th?

[marinewifejones]

feeling pregnant (which is blah cause i dont like being pregnant but thats a whole other story)

The monster trucks are larger. They are in the same section as the regular hotwheels but these are like $10 a piece and I dont know what the scale is just that Clay seems to think we are supposed to buy a new one any time we go to walmart, kmart or target.

[george 53]

AAAWWWW,he's just a proud Daddy.My daughter Joy's 30 now and she STILL got all the "Pretty Ponies"I would buy her every time we went to the mart.Now HER daughters playin with em!Semper Fi!

[Clay]

they are 1:24, and whats wrong with buying him a 5 or 10 pack of hotwheels or a monster truck everytime we go to Wal Mart?

[Guest roadkill2525]

Clay seems to think we are supposed to buy a new one any time we go to walmart, kmart or target.

Be glad he doesn't have this many yet.

The three boxes contain the 2004 First Editions.

This isn't half of what I have.

[Clay]

I want the Goldberg one

[Guest roadkill2525]

I want the Goldberg one

Thats the Team Meents truck, by the time I got these the Goldberg trucks were discontinued and nobody had any backstocked. On the other end is the 20th Anniversary Grave Digger.

haha, i have way more hotwheels than i do models, but i stopped collecting them quite a few years ago, to me it just seems these new ones dont have as much character as the the older ones. i think the newest ones I have are from '02 or '03. but hey, post yours up, id like to see them!

[Darrell Gwinn]

ahh, the matchbox cars just dont fit in with the hotwheels

[Spike]

hey rollinoldskool, you gotta post up your pics
