Hi Everyone,

Freedom of information, that's what I love about the internet. I've listed here a collection of links of my favorite toy car related sites that I'd like to share. I hope listing so many links is not violating any forum rules. I'm sure many of you wil have similar collection of links in your Favorites folder. Please post them here so we can all share. Enjoy!

Yeah, usually you will be banned if you post over 14 links in one post ;)

Quite a few I have never seen before. Will check them out.
I think the best diecast information site is Doug Breithaupt's:

Hi troopeur/Frederick, Very nice blog and a great collection of cars. I can't wait to see more pictures and postings from you. Before I've dealt with the same seller as you mentioned, a very professional gentleman and quality service. Thesedays I try to buy direct from Japan.
