Good on you, nice start to your collection. The stamp is great too! Yes, it does become an obsession but minis are anyway. My 12 year old son is emabarrassed going to the shops with me because I search through the hundreds of hotwheels and matchbox cars just in case a mini is in the pile. Try not to look on ebay worldwide, it is too easy to spend a fortune. You will find some of us on the IMMCC website. Google IMMCC and have a look. Cheers.

8) My Son makes a point of going and looking with me when we are out together or will drag my wife/his mum to look for them ( :twisted: if you start brainwashing them from an early age.......... :lol: )

it's bloody annoying that.... why can't they put some decent spacing in between them

this'll look nice next to the real one Allan ;) I tried to find one the same colour as mine, but no luck
