KEEPING TRACK ON EBAY
eBay: like marmite, you either love it or you hate it. Whichever camp you fall into, there’s no denying its rapidly becoming an increasingly popular platform from which to buy or sell collectables. Our resident eBay addict Sam Collins relates his latest experiences of wheeling and dealing online. |

FINS, FANGS AND STINGS
Tune in to the tales behind some great classic models from the cult TV shows of the 1960s. Batman, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and The Green Hornet collectables all feature, along with top tips on how to spot variants and rarities. And Holy Smoke, you’d be amazed at what even the standard examples of the original toys are going for now! |

LOOKING FOR ANSWERS?
In this issue we’re running four full pages of your questions and the fascinating answers provided by our panel of model experts. If you’re a Corgi Toys fan, you’ll be riveted by the illustrated observations on variants. Indeed classic issue queries abound, from the 1960s’ Eldon Corvette Sting Ray to the pre-war Chad Valley Queen Mary. |

READER SHOWCASE

TROLLEYBUS TREAT
Interest in these historic vehicles is still booming, despite the fact that they ceased service on Britain’s streets 35 years ago. This month we take a nostalgic look at both the old favourites and the current die-cast collection. Plus, we’re offering you the chance to win a personal guided tour of Sandtoft Trolleybus Museum! |
