Fans of collecting vintage toys?

Complete Cox 400 kit circa 1976

The fuel contains nitromethane just like a top fuel dragster burns.

My online handle I have been using for nearly two decades is a tribute to that fuel ;)
 
I wish I could get to my collection of Lego...I have parts and sets going back to the original designs from the early 1950's, along with the old HO scale vehicles (including cyclists) they used to make.
 
I feel so old when people think of toys and other things from the 1990's or even early 2000's as "vintage".:(

They may as well be saying, "Gee grandma, you saw the first Toy Story when it came out in theaters? Was it black and white back then? Did it have sound or did you have to read the dialogue on the screen? Did your dad drive you to the theater in his Flintmobile and put you on your pet dinosaur's head so you could get a better view of the screen?"

It could be worse...I was watching an episode of "Time team" with my daughter a few years ago. At one point in the episode they were digging up flint tools and explaining what they were when she turned to me and asked "Is that what you used to use". My wife laughed at that and they both love reminding me of it.
