I have a couple thousand Hot Wheels cars. Most are Blue Card (mainline) cars going back to early 90's. I also like to collect Johnny Lightning cars, and I have a couple thousand bucks into my collection of the Hot Wheels Classics series.
The Big Time Muscle cars have great detail, those are made by Maisto, right? Jada also makes some very nice diecast.

LoL I am flattered. 
I have a few DeLorean diecasts around here some where (who would have guessed!) I still have them boxed so I will need to unpack them soon and take some photos.

Ive still got dozens of 1/18 scales. I did have hundreds, but sold off a lot of them on ebay. I take mine all out of boxes so they can be looked at and picked up. I hate the current generation of ones like Big Muscle and Dubbs with the big fake looking wheels. Stock looking ones are so hard to find now unless you pay $75, I just quit buying them. The best Ive got are Exoto, Hiway 61 and Pocher. The detail on all those are incredible. Ive got a Coronet like mine that even has carpet, rubber trunk mat, and a tool pouch in the trunk. The Pochers have working keyed door locks, suspension, seat belts, even down to the writing on oil filters. I have a Testa Rosa and a 911. The Porsche even has lug nuts on the wheels.

I agree on the newer ones sucking.
I have, well lets say a few 1:18 Scale cars. They are all packed up right now, and will come out when I get the shop done.
I like to keep the same size, unless it's Fiero, or Taxi related.

I wouldn't have thought that you had any mini-Deloreans sitting around.

This is why I don't buy any of the really nice ones. I'd love to have some of the muscle cars that I've run across, but I can't afford $75 a pop. 
Pretty nice collection there, GM.  [This message has been edited by kyunderdawg (edited 06-16-2009).]

The least they could do is supply stock wheels and tires with them. Id gladly pay an extra $5 to be able to throw away the ghetto wheels. Too bad stores only sell 1/25 scale aftermarket wheels and not 1/18.
Mostly what Ive kept are models of real cars Ive owned. Ive just about got every one I ever had.
