Thing I never quite found a sound resolve with collections to these extremes. What you do with it in the long term? Sure you can collect to resell or pass it down to a good friend or child.... but some of these people don't sell, and they don't have kids. So it makes me wonder what they expect in the end when their time has come.

I did a quick search last night, I couldn't even find one. This must be really new, or really old. Either way, I got the impression that it's scarce. I'm gonna look around a bit again tonight.
It has been awhile since I've bought from him due to pricing. While he wasn't the cheapest seller out there, prices were decent & his customer service's superb. Lately though, prices were among the highest on TTP, so this Bugatti is the first purchase from him many, many weeks.
I used to want little bit of everything. Now I try to stick with cars I can't live without. Key word there is "try". I'm a man, not a machine!

HWC Thursday Deal of the Day features the Neo-Classics Red Baron for only 7.99 USD. The next HWC offer is a 2013 Factory Sealed Set, but for 499.99 USD. Neither of the prices I gave include shipping.

Just got another holy grail to end the week:
Forget the rest of them, as I was really aiming for that color. And I prefer plain body race cars a lot...

I'm getting this cast eventually, but with real riders. By the way, how do you find the Thursday special? I've seen it on the side before, but I went in there today after reading your post, but there was no note of it. Then when I found it on the normal page, it was being sold for $7.99.
P.S. Gulf GT-40 sold out today. Wilbur's new car just went up some in value.

Maisto Tailwinds Master Race:
Lockheed P-38 Lightning, Mitsubishi A6M Zero, de Havilland Mosquito FB Mk IV
Vought F4U-1D Corsair, Sukhoi Su-47, Grumman F-14 Tomcat
Size comparison to dinky Sky Busters:
See why the Blackbird ain't going up on the wall? Sad to see the Nighthawk also being overshadowed by a measly fighter plane. The Corsair BTW is the only one of the Maisto here that's metal/metal.
Only bad thing about Tailwinds is the crummier build on a fitted propellor and the lack of rolling wheels. But that doesn't matter since they all come with a stand and Sky Busters don't!
Haven't showed you guys yet, but here's the frame and where it's going to be put up... up against the same wall as the bed. It's still not painted yet, I haven't gotten to that yet. It's surprisngly the same weight as the 84-car frame on the adjacent wall; 12lbs. I blame the 1/8" acrylic. Probably could've gotten away with 1/16" but I scared myself into thinking it's too flimsy.

That is one nice looking car! On a completely random note, ebay is sucking me in...I found 2 cars I have been after for a decent price the Toyota Baja Truck in the original Toyota scheme and the newer Toyota scheme (black,gray,red,white) for about $40 bucks shipped. I can live with that.

Zero & Corsair for me(though I'd have preferred Hellcat).
I do want Herbie, but what I REALLY want is that Dodge Power Wagon. I want it.
Not quite what i was thinking though.
👍Is this about the Civic that already sold?Can you do me a favor? Pretty please?

I'm amazing!
Sorry, Andy. I'm such a tool, but you know I can't resist cheap shots.
No harm done. I jab and poke more than a sewing machine. The least I can do is be able to take my own medicine. 👍
Also I posted mine first. Don't be let down though. It's only second place. Silver medal's not thaaat bad.
