I am a collector from Minnesota and just joined. I thought I would start by sending out my want list and see if anyone can help. I read so many posts and comments from people here indicating board members have helped out so much in this "dry time" of CARS collecting. So…hopefully I can reap the benefits of some of that help also. I really do not have anything to trade, as I do not purchase extras, but my local KM does have lots of the latest metallic racers and some of the non-racer cars yet that I can pick up.
Here is my WANT list:
CARS1:
race-damaged Mood Springs
Tim Twostroke
Bessie
Miles
Brian Park Motors
Chuck Cables
Spin-out LM
TOONS:
El Materdor
Patokaa (Japanese police car)
CARS2:
Mama Topolino
Mama Bernoulli
Leland Turbo
David Hubbscap
Becky Wheelin
Don Crumlin
Officer Murakarmi
Damaged Rod Redline
crew chiefs from KM
I know I am missing some, but that is good for now. Good luck to me, I know, but I just have to inquire anyway!! Thanks for taking a look.
Welcome Jody! Wow, there are some hard-to-find cars on that list. Do you already have everything else that's not on your want list? David Hobbscapp and Mama Bernoulli haven't actually been released yet, and Leland Turbo and Mama Topolino have barely been released. Some consensus in the forum recently was that the Leland Turbo and/or Mama Topolino 2-packs may be better distributed within a month or two, hopefully. Have fun collecting!
As Mike stated some of the cars that you are looking for are going to be very hard / expensive to get and to be honest not too many folks offer up Bessies, Materdors etc. for trade so it's likely to be expensive to fill those gaps.
My e-mail is dewing99 @ hotmail dot com (ignore the spaces) and maybe I can give you the names of a couple of folks that have helped me in the past.
