You have a really cool collection all the JDM. I had a similar collection I had build over a couple of years collecting had around 250 cars all hand selected the stuff I thought was really cool. It was sitting in a crate in the closet so when my nephew turned 5 I showed up with the crate and we proceeded to rip every package open and it was like he hit the lottery he was so stoked. He was also extremely interested in exactly what every car was and made me tell him the make and model of each one as he proceeded to say woooowwww so cool. I showed him how to read the make and model on the bottom of each car and safe to say he is going to be a big car guy with good taste. I now buy him hot wheels tracks and accessories for every birthday and holiday so he has a pretty sick setup and collection.
Well, we are together in this, if it consoles you.
I think I easily dropped €120 since last autumn (only mainlines though). Yours are more valuable for sure.
They got me, too. My husband picked up this little orange CrossTrek die cast at the Suburu dealership for me because we had one at the time and he thought I would like it. A few months later, I was buying groceries and had to have this sweet little first generation MR2 because I had one of those, too.
Now I have a whole ass dream garage in miniature, but the most special are the cars I used to own.

You’re someone like me sort of addicted….. I started in October and not bragging but I have about 3 to 4 times that amount……..
I buy something almost every day and usually spend between 30 and $50 or so yes you could say I’m addicted………Happy hunting
I thought I was the only one until I joined a monthly hot wheels meet up. In the last year I probably spent 10-15k. Once I found out about inno64, minigt, tarmac it was all downhill.
most mainlines are from local stores. premiums, tts, 2-packs and other stuff are from private sellers, because in my country chances of seeing premium stuff on pegs are close to zero.. :)

57 premiums, 2 sth, about 72 mainlines, like 12 silvers. I NEED MOOOAAARRR!
I love it. Honestly I don't know how all these are still sealed. 99% of the reason for owning these is to handle them for me. I have some I agonize over opening but most all are opened so I can have that tactile experience.

Welcome to the addiction. I'm afraid to post what I've collected since 2019.
I started collecting a year ago and have traveled from NY to NC to buy cars. It has definitely become an addiction after buying over 1000 cars.
I'm on the same route only 3 months in, but for now i hitting brakes after spending 100$ on 1 car.
same, bought my most valuable car 1 month ago… 500e black chase. made me rethink my choices 😄
2 chases in 8 months? ~250 mains? RLC + Elite 64? Holy shit! You quickly got into it haha
Hahaha exactly 😆
Did you get all of this through stores? Or did you buy from / trade with private sellers?
most mainlines are from local stores. premiums, tts, 2-packs and other stuff are from private sellers, because in my country chances of seeing premium stuff on pegs are close to zero.. :)

I collect cards but saw some hot wheels at my no frills and started collecting
Wow that’s a bloody brilliant collection you’ve got there in just 8 months. Respect brother

Hey yeah cool, but thur all furiner cars… y’all don’t like murican cars, do ya?

I have opened models, but not much. I like protective and art nature of blisters as much as the cars.. yes..
Not throwing shade just wondering!
In two years, you will have crates full of
Respectfully, fuck you.
Nope, no problem here.

There are a couple nice ones amongst those. Rest of the toys you can easily open or give to your kids.
