Ok time to share my collection. I have got the whole 2010 series packed away but the following points are the favourites in my collection.

* I have got all the Bugatti Veyrons since the first edition in all the colour variants including the US colours in blister packs. About seven now.
* All of the Treasure Hunts from 2009 and 2010 in their blister packs.
* Redlines from the 70's and cars from the 80's and 90's in blister packs.
* Sizzlers.
* The complete 1969 series of Hot Wheels (yes the real deal) and some from 1968 including accessories released that year. Photo's attached, sorry about the quality. Google spectraflame for some really nice shots.
* And yes, the blue and yellow XB's.

I think thats what most people on here are doing...
At last count, currently up to 12 yellow xb's, although most are in preparation for xmas. (3 nephews, 2 younger male cousins and a best mates kid). Found 2 blue ones at a Target today.. first time I've seen them in any store.. Its funny seeing the reaction on peoples facing seeing a 29 yo guy hunting through the hotwheels section..
