This was a huge debate when I was a kid. I started collecting Matchbox cars early. I would save my allowance for months to be able to buy the new Matchbox car down at the local "five and dime" store. Then, in the 1960's, Hot Wheels came along. I didn't like them at first, because they had flimsy wheels, were made of cheap metal and plastic and didn't look like real cars...but they had a track and you could race them! That made them a hit. Unfortunately, all of my cars were given to charity by my parents, without asking my permission. Some of those Matchbox cars were my brother's, and dated to the 1940's. Which did you collect?
