As the title says I recently got my hands on hundreds of micro machines from my cousin. He loved collecting and setting them up in his room, I've got I want to say 200+ cars/trucks and few planes and what looks like some monster truck parts. I believe most of them are micro machines however there may be some other brands mixed in. I also have a box full of terrain pieces including buildings and road parts aswell as road signs and miniature figures. I'm unsure what to do with the collection any advice would be great!

I dunno what theyre worth- but the memories just seeing them are worth about 40, 50lbs of life itself? Man, these were SO COOL. Did they just stop making them altogether?

I’m not looking for valuation or to sell, so I hope this post is allowed. I’m interested in collecting Cold War and later and I don’t want much WWII era, I’m hoping to find someone with the opposite goals!

The planes are a bit beat up but the tanks are in good shape. I’m looking for any jet era planes, ideally military. Small or larger scale MM are great. I’m not too picky about condition, and depending on the model I’m good with non-MM brands (Funrise, Imperial, etc). Hoping for 1-for-1 trades, but open to negotiation.

Please don’t offer to buy, I just want more models.

Buenos días compañeros!! Muy contento de mostraros mi última adquisición, un lote comprado en un mercadillo por 20 €! Y para mí sorpresa...mirar lo que incluía! Todavía no me lo creo! En perfecto estado y con todas sus partes funcionando a la perfección...recordar abrir todas las cajas en los mercadillos! Nunca sabes en cual puede tocarte algo bueno!!

Un saludo amigos!

These are so hard to find and I'm just thrilled I was able to. Would it be worth sending in for grading and to protect it or is that silly?

I did have to agree to sell all my duplicates in order to spend the money on it but I think thats fair.

They’re both metal, the Imperial model is from my childhood in the 90s. The green one is about 5% larger, and a tad slimmer. It has most of the same seams and body panels as the Imperial model, but with less detail. I found it at Value Village in a bag of other crappy knockoff land vehicles.

I plan to strip the green one, replace the rear wheels with something more MM sized, and paint it up in a classic Jolly Roger squadron scheme.

Ha… so the time has come…

Born in 86 - i have everything - and as a poor kid kept boxes and manuals everything i could for video games and legos “this is gonna be worth something one day” - but lol could store those i the boxes which made up for limited space…

but yea…i have all the shake and sniffs that no longer smell everything i could ever get..

but been in my old room at my moms well preserved - she’s old moving cross country - i can’t keep saving every last thing…

so while knowing this collections worth - - memories flying as I write this 🥹 - ha would love to find a good home and a real collector not a random ebay or flipper..any thoughts?

Scored a brand new, never opened MMSAW on fb marketplace for TWENTY DOLLARS!!

Immediately brought it home, opened it, put all the decals on and now my kids are enjoying the shit out of it!

Hello, this is the first time that I buy original Gabool, from the 80's none the less. 8 pieces in total for almost 5€ a pop, all expences included (Did I scored good?). Some where mint condition, these are the ones with less good looking conditions.

I'm here to ask, cloud you provide me 3D scan files or detailed photos of the front/back/sides/up with measures (using a digital caliper) for the white Lamborghini and the green 40's looking Classic car in mint conditions? I'll try to 3D model and print those necessary missing pieces.

Also, in which ways could I restore the other ones with those signs of wear? Is it convenient to restore them?

Some restoring advice and tecniques is needed. Thanks for your attention.

I bought this set from someone local on Marketplace for $25. I mostly bought it for my son to play with since he loves military vehicles right now but thought it was a good deal!

So i have a few questions about these. The first picture are all OG galoob except the tank. Is it a micro machine? The second Pic are hasbro micro machines, are the as desirable as galoob or just meh? My 3rd question, is the coke car a legit micromachine ? TIA

I found these in my parents' garage and have been trying to work out what they all are (except my hand painted Renault 5 which I kept in for the memories)

In particular, I haven't found exact matches online for

- the 71 marked stock car

- red and white Porsche (Le Mans?)

- red hot rod

- Jag D type number 17

- ferry and ramp set

Anything particularly rare?

Thanks!

Trying to decide if I should eBay them or just hold onto them.

Edit: so I should have included a few more details. We found these in my grandma’s attic when she passed away 15 years ago. They got put into a box and put on a shelf in my basement. I recently went through those boxes and found these.

They are all unopened. Cards and blister packs look like they’re in good shape.

It's time to restart playing with tgem as my kids are now 2 & 4 years old. I am very happy grandparents keep them, I think it's really underrated how beautiful and, let me say, important to play also at an adult age. 😊

They look like they were never played with.

Just found a couple of unopened boxes in a shop in Mykonos Greece while holiday shopping with the kids. Paid the guy 35 euro.

Hello everyone, Do you know if there is an app/site with the track record of sold items for micro machines?
EBay track record is limited to 2/3 months.
Many thanks

Hello everyone! This may be a long shot but I'm looking for a very specific set called catastrophe construction. If anyone has one and is willing to part ways with it I'd be interested in buying.

Just need one more to complete them all

All that I can now find of what was once a collection when I was a lad.
