Made some updates to the first page gallery. Slightly better pics.

I've since had the great fortune to add the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 7 WRC and Red Shelby Daytona.

There's also one new special guest that's been added to the collection.

hmm... so is the special guest... lightning mc queen? lol...

or probably this?
Honda NSX Arta Autobacs #8 2003. Only 1 of 100 made available.


i guess it's so rare that this is the only time i've actually seen it...
really didn't know it existed... hope you wouldn't mind telling us how you came to acquire it? you must have really good connections since it's 1 out of 100 series... thanks for sharing...

oh and what's the story behind lightning mcqueen? does it really fit on a mini-z chassis?

love your rally car collection as well...

I would also like to know about the mcqueen. From the yellow packaging it looks like a R246 body but I can't seem to find any info about it. Please do share. My youngest son LOVES the movie and has seen it probably more than 100 times. I would love to have that body to race around for him.

Regarding the Arta....
I have a friend in Japan that I bother once a year for special purchases. Needless to say, it seems I've bothered him already for this year.

Regarding Lightning....
It's from a very limited edition R246 release in Japan in conjunction with Disney.

J/K

It's actual a body from a toy. I intend to do a full write up in the near future with some details so stay tuned. It does fall under the perfect fit category.

sjhobby.com tends to have some harder to find autoscales.

Wonderful Collection

Hello Soul,
It's very pleasing to see so many rarities in one collection.
I didn't even know the existence of the Arta NSX 2003!
A very inspiring collection! Thanks a lot.

btw I like your Macross-Gundam-Eva in lego Project too
I was a fan of Roy's VF-1S and Hikaru's VF-1J when I was kid.
(Used to draw the Valkyries on my school desks under battroid and gerwalk forms).

After reminiscing over the 15 year mark of joining this forum, I'd figure I'd post pics of my collection at the end of 2019 before the Great Reduction of 2020 to support other hobbies and projects. There's just under 200 here(another row on the bottom out of view) from over 15 years of fun collecting. I actually had more at one point which I'm both embarrassed and proud of at the same time.

I think I was at this ore more at some point as well. I really do miss the collection however trying to grow less attached to 'things' as the years go by so learned to live and let go. I do miss it but at the same time, I don't have the worry about space, etc.

thanks for sharing the walk down memory lane.

Yeah I came to a similar conclusion. Too much and too many things just sitting in a closet sadly. No fun in that so I'm down to a much smaller group of just my favorites although I'll probably reduce further.

Now I just need to find a way to display some of these in way that doesn't get UV damaged cuz those old white autoscales will turn yellow in 5 seconds.
