MBXPilot's Lesney Collection

[MBXPilot]

I like the way you think!

But nah I'm a regular wheel guy, but I love the transitionals.

So this minty little Road Dragster arrived today. Does anyone else agree that it has a place in my Lesney collection?

If you like it, then yes, it has a place in your collection. Case closed. I don't collect Suuperfast, but I might start if I can find decent models at such low prices!

I don't collect Suuperfast

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GHOSTHUNTER]

Yes, be careful there Squid. What you should have said was..."I don't currently have any 'Superfast' models in my collection".

Ghosty.

Yes, be careful there Squid. What you should have said was..."I don't currently have any 'Superfast' models in my collection".

That is an entirely accurate statement. My focus is on the Regular Wheel era, but who knows? A Superfast might creep in as part of a lot, or I might find a deal too good to pass up. MBXPilot has a real knack for the latter!

Well after I just got a banger of this model to restore, along comes a pretty darn nice one!! And for about the same price! Haha around $3 shipped I think. Gotta love my luck sometimes..

Finds 2/3 by Logan Abner, on Flickr

And in bigger and better news, I finally bought an engagement ring today
No pics, as I think my special someone follows my Flickr feed haha, but it's a pretty one.
So, between that and all the Volvo parts I still need, Matchbox will be taking a bit of a backseat for a bit. Of course, that's not to say I still won't be picking up some cars, but they're going to have to be REALLY good deals haha.

I reckon congratulations are in order then if you are becoming engaged and you will of course tell us the name of the lucky one...

Ghosthunter.

[MBXPilot]

Her name is Nerissa, and she's from England actually. I seem to love all things British.

[GHOSTHUNTER]

OK, thank's Logan, my best wishes to both of you.
