About me

I have been a passionate Matchbox collector for about 30 years.

My speciality are the antiquarian Matchbox models of the Regular Wheels series. The extension are the "Accessory Packs", as well as the "Major Packs" and also those can be found in my showcases.
Slowly, however, I also became enthusiastic about vehicles from the later SuperFast series, especially the transitional models, the so-called "Transitionals".
I played with them as a little boy and had countless "Matchbox accidents" with my friends. Of course, nowadays one or the other idea of playing at that time hurts me, especially since I have destroyed six blue "Team Matchbox" (No.24). But back then, as for all of us, they were simply great toys and not collector's items.
I only collect original models, which means: no repainted or repaired models.

In the meantime I can identify every version without any mistakes and I am very happy to find models that are not listed in the Michael J. Stannards or the so-called "Matchbox Bible".
Due to my many years of experience, I can now recognise imitated models without any problems. I am available to help any collector who has doubts about the authenticity of his own models. I am also happy to assist in the evaluation of the condition.

I also like to exchange experiences, information and pictures.
