A Few of My Model Cars

[makavelli]

Well after moving out early last year the parents have slowly been feeding my random junk from their house to mine, this weekend sees the model car i collected when i was younger.

I couldn't resist opening them up for old times sake before they go in my loft.

I used to get the burago's for birthdays etc and i collected the petrol station cars with my dads petrol tokens.

Probably not worth much but doesnt do any harm keeping them stored until i can afford a massive garages with display cases :approve: lol

i will start with four random land speed cars and three little cars which i can only assume i collected from a garage promo:

Thunderbirds bits from a FINA garage promo, all boxed and sealed:

Next up some boxed FINA garage cameo collection corgi cars got 2 sets:

The some FINA corgi classic cars, got 2 sets:

Two random Tetley wagons lol:

'Days Gone' Car collection again through a FINA promo, got two of each:

Supercar collection not sure where i got them but they look like the kind of thing shell would have done:

next up the burago cars, all 1/24 scale and in boxes, well apart from 2 for some reason, i will put them in the next post:

LOL!

How many birthdays have you had?!

Not sure what they're worth, but it's got a be a few quid for condition/boxed, etc!

Not allowed to play with the thunderbirds?

 

[makavelli]

LOL!

Not sure what they're worth, but it's got a be a few quid for condition/boxed, etc!

a few lol, waiting to see what cars are in the other boxes coming up tomorrow, im sure i had double the amount.

yea as i say not worth much but the way i figure, they haven't done any harm spending 15 years in the parents loft so i will stick them in mine for 30 years or so then get them down and see if they are worth a punt lol

 

[makavelli]

Not allowed to play with the thunderbirds?

haha, i wasnt a fan, just got them and stuck them in a box

i remember the landspeed cars i had to collect and send off kellogs tokens (i think it was kellogs)
may be how you got yours

I used to adore Bburago cars, and got them for birthdays and christmas aswell. Think i have 20-30 of them, allthough mine is 1:18 and not boxed. They are in very good condition though.
I wonder why that Ferrari 456 is in 1:25 scale, when the others is 1:24?

Wow all in the boxes too

I have hundreds of the days gone lledo models but they dony seem to be worth anything

 

[Daniel]

Burago! I had loads of them!!

[Andy.]

[jim cook]

The Xk120 Jags are awsome mate should be worth a bit in the future

thunderbird 2 brings back memories!

 

[Ian_182]

The thunderbird stuff is worth some money...

Nice little collection.

 

[Moz168]

Argh. I have loads of Thunderbird stuff in the loft, all battered though. I dont think i wanna know how much there worth.

 

[Ian_182]

I still have the original kojak car in the box and the batmobile in the box.There worth 40-50 quid each.

 

[rctempire]

Excellent collection.

I opened all mine, and i can say i played with them all. I have a huge box full of cars.

 

[Gray]

I have those exact two, still in the boxes aswell

Is there a web site that does valuations on model cars ???

 

[Ollie82.]

Im curious to know about what some of mine are worth.

I've got 3 1:18 Mclaren F1 road car models by UT. Apparently the dark grey standard model is worh quite a bit.
Also got a Black road version of the longtail and the Orange LM.
