What!? Where is the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum? I thought it was in Wheat Ridge :D

Seriously that is cool Mike.

Ever come across a FJ40 piggy bank? I am teaching my 3 year old about money this summer and I'd love to find a piggy bank.

So does this mean you've reached the end of collecting toys and literature, or will you continue acquiring stuff for the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum?

And just curious: did you keep anything?

This is a 1988 SCOBEY PALENO CERAMIC

I need to get my finances back on track then I'll tie up some loose ends on toys and literature. All of it went to the museum, or is about to. I keep finding stuff :)

Excited to share the dream becoming a reality. Thank you Greg Miller for your generosity and for letting me be a part of your vision.

That's so cool Mike! I need to make a pilgrimage someday soon! :thumb:

I'd love to give you a tour!

CDan did a great job with the displays. I stopped by last night with the folks from ExpeditionPortal and we spent as much time looking at toys as trucks :D

I have a pretty exciting weekend planned. Picked up a Country Life Farm Town play set after work today. Should keep me entertained.

Murdoch's Farm and Ranch (The 70 in the set is made by New Ray).

He did indeed. And that's not even close to all of it. Every one of those drawers underneath the display cases are PACKED with more.

It's a seriously impressive collection in there. The two 30th anniversary 70's are maybe the coolest things I have ever seen (even if they have the wrong motors in them).
