I also want to collect die cast cars that are made famous by movies.

The brand names aren't as important as the desirability to collectors.
"Hot Wheels" in great shape seem to be worth more than most, even though they're actually kind of new in a way.
Desirability. Key in the collectable arena.
A rockin' sweet Tonka sells for bookoo if it's in great shape, and over 35. But for the older stuff, they just seem to remain stagnant in their worth. No desirability, but for collectors, so I would focus on the solid old Hot Wheels if the shock springs aren't all mashed-up, but you can fix that if you have a bit of patience, and time..
H.O scale Tyco, Lionel, and other train sets seem to be worth nothing compared to the enjoyment we've received from them, even the 40 to 80 year-old stuff, so I guess I'll just keep them.
Numerous dye-cast planes, and WWII stuff seem to be catching an eye or two, but the collectable toy market is like a bummer now.
For it to be worthwhile, everybody wants a "Tony Skateboard" or a "Bratz" model.
It's a whole new world out there, and we old guys may as well collect stamps, or learn how to rap. Live......or just fade away.
I'm afraid it's over, Brother. Nothing is sacred, and tradition is gone.
Pessimistic, but one thing I've kept up with for sure, is reality. Nobody cares anymore. About anything. Don't have to.
I have just caused myself to sink into a horrible and depressive state of mind.
Think I'll go get drunk, and shoot at the moon.
Enjoy, and love your girl. That's worth a lot. No. She's not for sale...........er.....how much you got?
