52 if I include the 1/43 Ignition Model I have en route right now. Got 15 1/43's including that IG. Will do a separate 1/43 group shot of my 2015 additions, then a combined 1/18 and 1/43 when I get that last IG.

That is about 5x the price of my most expensive R/C anything. And while it looks awesomely detailed, I think it probably better belongs in the R/C topic
And I sorta want it...

@Venom800tt. You got so many cars. Can we expect a Black Friday 2016 sale from you? 
At 1:12, it better.

How much bigger will that get, I wonder? Any special purchases lined up for 2016...?

Who knows lolHow much bigger will that get, I wonder? Any special purchases lined up for 2016...?
Other than some pre-orders still open, I have no idea what sort of models I will be getting for 2016. Quite a few new releases and some old releases that I'd like to pick up.
Yep, it is 1/18. The AUTOart one to be exact. Granted, it is sitting next to a tiny Alfa 4C, but even so the Aventador is a large car. Yet due to the magic of carbon fiber, it is a lot lighter than the old Murc LP640. The only supercars I have comparable in size are the LaFerrari, Panoz Esperante GTR-1, and Dauer 962. The Dauer being the largest of all of my supercars.

I look at that collection and imagine how many salaries a part timer has to give up for this. 
Do you write any comparison posts on external web pages like DX or DS? The idea of having one place to do comparison photos on my blog is still up in the air, but I;d be open to one or two external contributors, and seeing how many models you have, I could rely on you for 1:18 models. Interested?

Eh, I dunno, I am generally too lazy to write detailed comparisons between models, or even review them for that matter. Maybe when I am really bored I could do a few random reviews/comparisons though lol...I look at that collection and imagine how many salaries a part timer has to give up for this.

And it took around 19-ish years to get my collection the size it is today. I'm sure a couple models in those pics are at least 15 years old lol

Don't really need write ups. I'm too lazy to write anything myself. Really, I just use my blog as a source of info rather than a place to read during a coffee break, so what I care most about are the photos available to compare models side by side (either in a single photo or two individual photos). And if we really feel like it, we can mention distinct differences in a caption below.
I just don't have models available to take such photos, so if you're ever willing to share photos that I may post onto my blog, that'd be totally awesome. But if you'd rather not, that's cool too.
If anyone else would like to contribute to this notion, I'm all ears.

Can I have them all? BTW, that collection would be worth several thousand dollars. That front row alone is worth about $3000 based on a $200 average.Hah, I will never sell any of my models

Well, I might be able to do that. Though, bear in mind quite a few of my models are modified, so an accurate comparison might not be completely possible.
Hah, I dunno about that
And luckily I don't think those models on the first row actually average out to $200. Actually, after doing some quick and rough math, the average is around $160 for those 14 models up front lol

We can put those on hold for the time being.
Do you have a place where I can access your photos that I can link to my blog? I can probably start us off with comparison pics of a UT and GT Spirit 993.

So I went to a hobby store today looking for some cool 1:43 cars, and left with an 1:18. Then went to a flea market for some old Hot Wheels, and left with a 1:12 radio controlled car.

E39 M5: Ottomobile. They had 2 separate releases, one in Avus Blue and one that looked to be Silverstone. Both are out of production, and your best bet is to find one on eBay or on the secondary market.
E60 M5: Kyosho. There are several different colors available, and one in Nurburgring Taxi color scheme. Some are in regular Kyosho boxes and some are "Dealer Edition" BMW boxes. Dealer Editions tend to be pricier on the market, and may be in a color otherwise unavailable, but details wise are the same. Out of production as well, best bet is eBay.
