CR TOYS Background Information

Collectorholic at Large (sm)

I have been collecting since the 70's and collect 30 to 50 different items. My largest collections (Star Trek and Aurora HO slot cars) have well over 2000 pieces each and my smallest collections have over 2 dozen pieces each. I started collecting Transformers around July of 1996 and by July of 1997 I had 400+ in my collection. There are still a few that I am looking for though.

I have bought, sold & traded over the phone and through the mail since 1989. I opened a small store in August of 1995. About 30% of it was dedicated to Star Trek/Sci-Fi and 30% to HO slot cars and other Transportation items (Hot Wheels, Nascar, Johnny Lightning, Banks, etc.). The remainder is miscellaneous collectible toys and other collectibles, including non-sports trading & gaming cards.

  • I closed the store February 15th 1997 and have gone back to mainly mail-order and Toy Shows. I will hopefully be able to set up another HO 4-lane Slot Car track in the near future.
