thank ye kindly.

gave one too to you.

yes, collected many Veedubs along the way. The one in my avatar was repainted badly by whoever owned it before me so thought it might be snug enough to hold the old ToyCollector logo.
Currently haven't had time to redesign a sheet with the new logo due to work and trying to sort my car collection.

The Tomica VW type 2 van comes in many colours. Its very sought after and very expensive to purchase in any condition. A low price can easily escalate in a ridiculously 3 digit number.
This is one van I've been trying to add for a number of years, next to actual Japanese cars.

Mostly narrowed my collection down to the big three: Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky.
Occasionally will exceed the three by having interest in Tomica, Majorette, Siku, Husky, etc.

As one theme draws to a close I look at the next one.

I call the single group type collecting 'themes' as it focuses my field of collecting.
For instance: Corgi Toys will be primarily Land Rover and Morris Minor.

Other themes also concentrate on one specific company like Volkswagen and Porsche. As these two are closely related I will add Audi and NSU as well.

Specific one type model model collecting happens aswell: Rolls Royce Silver Ghost for example.

My last VW was a red variant of Matchbox-Dinky DY6-C.
Second to last was Matchbox Flying Bug.
