One of my customers ONLY collects Christine items.
He is very obsessed with the film. I only speak to him a few times a year, or less, as I rarely find anything Christine he doesn't have.

It's not on my Top 20 list, but I watch it every other one or two years. Something personal I guess, when it comes to a boy and his car this one is my favorite. There are much better car-films, road-movies, like TWO-LANE BLACKTOP or VANISHING POINT. But CHRISTINE works on a more juvenile level. Always brings me back to the 80s where the car was everything: Escape tool, toy, companion, living room, bed room..

That vanishing point poster is a beauty and i also like the Dazed and confused one, they've been added to my want list.
I have a weakness for cars, I have 3 on the driveway at the moment and the newest one is 35 years old  :-[
At one stage I had 11 cars so i'm not as bad as i used to be  :P
I also collect Model cars and getting near to 3000 of them i'm beginning to think i may have a problem :-\
So i like movies and cars...no wonder may favourite movie is about a car  8)

I also have a movie car collection  hitself

Sounds all great to me :)
What cars are we speaking of ? I drive the '69 GT (my avatar)
I never had more than two (in the late 80s), I was enough
trouble for my mother & girlfriends with my paper archive,
35mm prints, thousands of books & films...

3000 model cars ? Boy!
Guess I have 30-40.
My best buddy in Munich has close to 1000,
and I thought HE was crazy :)

I watch Vanishing Point every few years, but it is because I moved to Colorado in the mid-70s.  About the time John Denver was singing Rocky Mountain High.  Vanishing Point is the best slice of Colorado in the '70s I know of, from west Colfax Avenue to Glenwood Canyon.

Ah nostalgia.  It ain't what it used to be.

Nice model looks about 1:12 or 1:10 scale

At the moment all my cars are VW...One 77 transporter (hippy mobile) and Two 412's '72 and '74
I've had a few yank tanks over the years and my favourite from them would be my old '72 buick century, I loved that car but i swapped it for a '79 transam...Black with the usual gold eagle hood sticker...I hated that car. then i messed around with some old pickups...ford F150 Chevy silverado but the trouble with all those big motors these days is fuel over here is nearly $10 a gallon.

I started collecting the toy cars when i was around 6 and now they've just kind of taken over

this is one cabinet...


there a more  :-[

This a few of the movie/TV related stuff


And again there are more

And because my normal day job is as a Modelmaker the place is also full of all sorts of models

Like the time got bored and decided to build a droid  eyeroll



Luckily i built him a half scale, so he can sit out of the way on a shelf  8)

Dear Threenero,

Since you are a model maker, I would like an anatomically correct 1:1 ratio model of the following:
Natalie Portman
Jessica Biel
Jessica Alba

Seeing as we are officially forum buddies, you should not charge me for any.

Best regards,
Conor

No, no. I'm happy to have it done as is.
