You lot can take the mick all you want.. doesn't bother me. At least I've got a decent hobby. Ain't nothing wrong with sharing it. Obviously it ain't your cup of tea. Fair enough. Suppose its better than talking about biscuits and track cars... BOORRINNGGGG!!!!!

Come on, if you can't take some sarcasm then you really shouldn't be posting it up on a forum.

:grin:
I don't think there is anything wrong with the fact that you collect model cars Andrei. It's the fact that you take them out with you and set up roads for them and beach scenes to photograph that I find slightly scary..... but you know what I'm like by now, I do love to take the piss.
Don't knock the biscuit hobby mate, you are seriously outnumbered on that one!

Everyone likes a good biscuit!


And as for taking the piss, i think we all give it as good as we get it. How it should be.

Don't give it unless you can take it.

Some random person on here changed my name to Helen for a while. I found it funny

Now Im not knocking it, god knows I have loads of hotwheels and matchbox in the loft and on display, few old corgi's and a franklin mint DB5(thats a collectable).

I even take my scaler out down the local country park when I get chance, or just round the pond at home. Race cars and buses on the road outside with my TA02 and Im 30 years old.

But you CANNOT, no MUST NOT disrespect the biscuit thread.

That was put together quite well, the red 959 is quite rare now.

Andrei, is the cobra 1:18th or 24th? looks 24th scale.
Tesco are doing a range of "toys", 1:24th dream cars, quite good, got the Aston Martin and the Paginni is looking quite nice, although they are definatley toys but for £6 they are pretty well detailed.

They will probably sit in the garage or loft gatherung dust till George gets his grubby mits on them and smashes them up in a few years, cant see myself making a mini M6 any time soon.

Those pics are cool Andrei, ignore what these losers are saying hahaha! The first one you posted donkeys ago did have me fooled, was it a Dodge Viper or something? They remind me of those pics of cities where there is a peculiar lens effect applied that makes it look like a model. Only yours are models. Which is cheaper than building a city and then photographing it to look like a model.

Did anyone end up buying those Cavalier Mk3 Die-Cast Corgi models in the end?
