Hi Everyone ! Wow, 2 years and 3 months between posts. I have been away from the forum for a long long time :D Busy with life and family. However I've still kept adding to my Dinky collection slowly. To re-start, here is a recent addition. Dinky #157 Jaguar XK120 Cream. I need to develop my diorama ...

Hey Everyone, Been a little while since my last post, been busy with life but still have been adding to my collection, I'll start posting new additions shortly. I've put together another little stop motion film project, getting better, still need to perfect the movement :D https://www.youtube.com/wa...

Hi everyone, been awhile since my last post, weather has been too nice, yard work and trips to the beach has kept me from the important work of updating my collection :D A recent addition and one of my first Buses, #29D / 570 Somua Panhard Autobus Parisien France - 1952-1961 https://2.bp.blogspot.co...

A Heavily "used" Solido Mercedes Benz 220 SE this week, released in 1963 to 1968, reference # 126. This particular model looks to have been used once to often in a bank job getaway ! The rear suspension is collapsed and the windshield has a bullet hole right in the middle ! Perhaps it's be...

Dinky ~ # 30B Rolls Royce 1935-1940 ~ 1946-1950 As this example has the 3 hole chassis, I believe it to be pre-war.

Another Rio model, #69 Barney Oldfield's 1902 Ford "999" Racer. Top Speed was 147 Km Usual Rio quality, the flywheel / drive shaft works and turns the rear wheels. Like the dangerous location of the flywheel and drivers feet ! http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1LMEBa_qYZg/Vpv2GaMMaVI/AAAAAAAAA8k/U...

Great models, really like the Multipla - nice you got the box too

Maybe you should've tried a Taxi :mrgreen: (I agree great video !) A new addition, I'm now starting to add older Dinky...

A little later made model, 1985 according to Paolo Rampini's book Modelcars Made in Italy 1900-1990. but still a favorite ! Rio ~ # 84 1936 Hispano Suiza Spider http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3RqeEfacdes/ViP6q_8sU7I/AAAAAAAAAzU/nj2fxoZC6m8/s1600/DSCF7294.JPG http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Sun34TOtVhk/ViP6q78O...
