Hello from Germany!
I'm sure , many of you know me as a long time collector of Matchbox toys - I'm better known under my nick name matchboxgrizzly.
It could be that some of you have visited my homepage http://www.matchbox-grizzly.heicon.de in the past years. Sorry - I have no time to update and work on it more ...
I just found an old video of a German TV production about me and my Matchbox collection ( it's about 10 years old and in German ...sorry...)
you can watch it at : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHi3c_bb ... load_owner

Hopefully it's working - it's my first try at youtube...

Happy collecting and have fun! ---- yours Ralph

Hello Ralph, nice to see you here and thanks for posting the video. You have a dream of a collection!

I loved the white lab coat you wore while inspecting the models. It reminded me of my factory training on 1:1 scale German cars.

for your understanding.... I'm a pharmacist and the first part of the video was filmed in my pharmacy in the back office - it's the room I'm living and sleeping if I have emergency in my pharmacy. In this pharmacy room I store my Superfast collection.
The second part was filmed at home and here I have the Regular Wheel collection ..... greetings Ralph ----

Hallo Ralph auch von mir ein Herzliches Willkomen Hier bei Nicks Forum und viel Spass.
