A few new goodies!

Post by hydra427 »

Here are a few new models that I have added to the collection. Still looking for about a dozen models but nearing a complete run of every model and then I can focus more on the variations. Hope to find a nice dark blue 55B to go with this lighter version. I sometimes hate that I am so picky about condition.

I've started getting into the Major Pack range and here a few new examples. Just a small start but hope to have all the Majors by the end of the year. If anyone is looking to get rid of some, let me know! I am also looking for Matchbox Showrooms & Service Stations. Might pick up a few this summer if the right ones come along.

Thanks for taking a look. Comments as always are welcome.

Thanks for all the kind words, Nick - what is your Ebay user ID so that I can check out your auctions. If you have some pictures I might be interested in a fair deal saving us both on fees etc. Let me know. I am mainly interested in the early pieces.

Thanks, John

Lovely 33 there. Still looking for any other shade apart from the normal issue green.
