Best McCoy Collection Ever

Just uploaded some amazing pics of James' McCoy collection. It's funny, I never really went nuts for McCoy gear although I always liked it and thought it was nice, I never avidly collected it. Now I would never turn down any standard gauge....

There are a few pieces of McCoy that I would really like to get my hands on. The hand cars and galloping goose (or geese) or some of the nicest products I have seen ever, in any gauge.

Here's the thing; I look at this collection and think about all the McCoy I have turned down, I coiuld kick myself. This collection is amazing. The color and graphics on the cars is amazing. Just the sheer diversity of the collection and of the kinds of products produced really fascinates me. Goes to show not everything amazing was produced by Lionel....
