Stored away with my Lima HO size XPT and s-class diesel loco set.
My daughter didn't play with them much, but maybe one day she'll have kids that play with them.

and then you will realise what their $$ value is. As 1 of 3 brothers being brought up with a car fanatic dad, We knew what Chrissy & Birthday presents were. Corgi, Dinky, Matchbox cars, Maccano sets. Was helpful having rellies back in UK who would post put the latest models.
I know than when I turned 15 there was over 200 diecast cars, although we played with them most still had their boxes as well.
Then kiwi grandkids came along and their grandmother thought it was nice for the littleies to play with them. Bang crash went any value
