Anyone else got a crap load of Camaro/Firebird Hot Wheels?
So on my way home from the hospital, after being born, my dad bought me a 1979 Trans Am Hot Wheels...looked sort alike a NHRA drag racer, with fat rear wheels, a flame paint job, the engine sticking through the hood, and the body of the car would hinge by the trunk and lift up. Damn cool.
By age 20, I had owned a 1979 Trans Am (a real one) and a 1990 Camaro RS. So these cars have always been something I've gravitated toward, including my toy buying as a kid. So I had many F-Body die cast cars. Since getting my 2012, I still find myself looking through the Hot Wheels racks when one catches my eye. I'd say, rough guess, I have 30+ Camaros/Firebirds in toy form. Some in boxes, some out on display. Anyone else? EDIT: I had a photo on my phone of just a few of them I have displayed in one area... |

I've picked up about a half dozen fifth gen hot wheels since I got mine in 2013. Also picked up a model, a couple of cheapo diecasts and r/c Camaro's that I let my kids play with. I just about always stroll through the toy section at stores to see if they have any

I suppose this counts as a "crap load" (see attachment).
I also have a bunch of older Camaros and Firebird Hot Wheels as well as five remote control Camaros -- one of which is an HPI Racing 1/10 Sprint 2 Flux 2010 Camaro RTR

I carried around a z06 in the old Camaro, as a token of sorts.

I wish. I collect nascar and star wars, so if I collect anything else I might be labelled a hoarder.
