Show us your toy room!

Post by Sir_Matchbox_96 »

Hi all,

here is my selfmade showcase. No I am no rivalry to 'Bob the Builder' but I am happy with it :D
It holds round about 100 matchbox, I filled it with some Superfast and later made in asia ones.

Cheers,
Linus

Linus,
Good effort. The new display case looks good.
What's in the other display case? I think I can see an SF20 Super Booster!

Cheers Steve

Lovely looking display case.
Always nice to see how other collectors display their collections.
I for one am always open to new ideas.

I am lucky to have a friend with some woodworking skills and able to help me on the weekend. He helped me build these cases.

This forum is truly blessed with some REAL model car collectors. Thanks to all those members who are willing to show us some of their treasured model collections, I admire all of you and know from my own experiences how hard and expensive it can be to achieve such comprehensive collections, thanks Guys.

Sadly I tried to post some pics of a few of my cases but they seemed to go supersize when I submitted them.
I never have figured out how the picture posting works to this site.
Everyone's collections look great though!
