srad34 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Hi all,After managing to gather a couple of HF models from chaps on the forum, I have decided at the tender age of 43 to start collecting the models I had in my yoof.I loved the Polistil 1:24/5 series, lord knows what happened to all of mine so here goes... I am looking only for cars from the 70's and 80's ranges in the above scale, road cars & rally cars and some of the brochures that you could get at the time. I remember getting the brochure from Lightfoots model shop in Rhyl and circling the ones I wanted for Christmas!I loathe to use ebay so if anyone has any, not overly bothered about the condition, ideally complete, no boxes required etc, happy to pay via PayPal or direct transfer inc postage etc. If you have anything you want to pass on, please let me know... Cheers all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2_craig Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I've got a few of these - green 2cv, black Beetle cab with the two roofs (soft top raised and lowered), two blue Volvo 740s saloon and estate, white Lancia Y10 Fila!! and one other that I can't remember. Also a dozen or more of the Bburago 1/24 scale, Fiat Unos, Regata, Alfa 75, Merc 190E, Porsche 911S, Land Rover 110 etc. Most in original boxes. Looking to move them on now, happy to deal! Plus some stuff in 1/18 and 1/43 scale though I know you didn't ask. Can do photos of everything. srad34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Have a look at the link in my sig, I did a video of Polistils through the 70s and 80s. You'll have some competition on here though if people are selling Polistils and Bburagos, I am slightly partial to them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2_craig Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I'll get some photos up Iain - until then, see if you can find the Toy Shite facebook group where I uploaded a few last month. I lost my eBay mojo a while back and would rather trade in other ways, even if doing so is less likely to generate the excitement of a bidding war!

sierraman Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 With the cost of selling on eBay you'd probably get more selling on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Worth a visit to the local toy fair? A few years ago a stallholder at one near me had a few, sadly no prices displayed and I suspect they wouldn’t have been cheap…..

mk2_craig Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Righty, I've been busy hoiking out all this stuff from deep storage. I think I'm going to adopt an "everything's for sale" attitude as my dream of rigging up a means of having them all on display is not going to become reality any time soon. Here's a little taster, I'll do a separate thread... Dirk Diggler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2_craig Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Matt - there's a PM sitting in your message inbox, in case you haven't already seen it. Have you had a look at the other thread? http://autoshite.com/topic/29415-miniature-shite-hoard-disposal-27-10-17-matchbox-corgi-majorette-etc-etc-etc/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I've this going for cheap if anyone's interested: there's a red Tonka Polistil box to go with it, although no polystyrene insert I'm sad to say. £4 posted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
