I spy a non retro Prime in there (and a re-issue Soundwave thats not very old!) Awesome collection of stuff though! Is the bumblebee (small beetle) in that pic really orange? I'll have to get some pics of my TF's done The new prime and reissue soundwave are my sons ( the lambo , Corvette and Datsun are also reissues ) The orange bumblebee was repainted by me when I was a kid using good old old humbrol paints ! ( I'm sure I used to have a red one though ? ) let's see those pics mate ;D

It's been months since I posted anything on this thread so seeing as i was up the attic getting the Xmas decorations down ( and searching for Hotwheels Treasure hunts for the hotwheels thread ! ) I thought I'd take a few more piccies My son Morgan picked up this reissue of Autobot Skids in TK Maxx yesterday for £6.99 , alway's liked this one when I was little ;D He also bought this old japanese beach buggy slot car set a few months back at volksfest wales for a fiver in it's original box . The buggies had been painted in satin black and red oxide but he scraped it all off using nail varnish remover and cotton buds ! Some old meccano magazines from the 1950's ... and a random selection of old toy catalogues ... I might do a few scans of the catalogues when I'm off over Xmas if anyone wants to see them , the diapet one is stuffed full of miniature retro 80's J tin !

We'll have to sort out a little Retro-rides meet again I reckon

Very envious of the KDF Wagen...........I find b*gger all at shows. There's not many of them left as apparently a lot have disintigrated due to metal fatigue I think if it was on sale at the usual VW show's it would cost a lot more than I paid for it .

how do u find out about all these toy fairs around swansea? I need to go to some of these. from what u have picked up they seem amazing. any chance a pm could be sent this way when ever a retro fair is on? The toyfairs are usually advertised in the diecast magazines like model collector or diecast collector . i've got details of a couple of local ones coming up soon . There's one in Carmarthen on sunday 11th april , it starts at 10.30am til 3.00 pm and it's held in the Ivy Bush royal hotel , postcode SA31 1LG . There's another one on Saturday 1st May in the market hall in Brecon , postcode LD3 7LG and the times are the same as the other one . If I find out about any more I will let you know . There are also plenty os autojumble stalls at the Swansea Vintage and classic car show on mayday in singleton park .
