Since there are no other posts here yet, why don't I start?

I picked this up yesterday, bit of a fluke I thought, as all other sets around it were mixtures of many makes. This set, being 2 great VWs, had to come home with me!

sweet find dude! im still trying to track down some herbie gear... problem is that walmart bought the exclusive rights to toys and merchandise, which puts us aussies outta luck due to the fact that there are no walmarts here i got a friend in the US whos gonna pick me up a herbie "zipzap" though, lookin forward to that! its like a rc car but the size of a matchbox car (mabye slightly bigger). hehe no doubt another thing you guys will see at the next show i go to... lol

My model kombis. The keyring on the left is the only Bay model I've ever found! I use the moneybox on the right to save up for VW projects

My beetle models. I haven't got around to painting white panels on the big one yet but I will do it soon.

Very nice...but from my limited experience, you'll need a bigger moneybox....

I've filled that moneybox twice in the last year, it holds about $500 in loose change

Iv got a samba, well a toy one anyway. was board one day and pulled the bottom off, filed down the drop outs for the wheel axles and hey presto! droped splitty.

That looks identical to one of my models... maybe I should slam mine too

Yeah same as the one above.

looks cool hey!!

A friend just returned from Brazil today and brought this for me, will look great in the collection:

Canberra VW Center Belconnen will be having a big VW car model sale over the coming month or so. There will be bucket loads of cars and a heap of rare models for sale at the event from his 20+ year private collection.

So watch this space
