Lets See Your Bronco Toys!

Post by Digger »

I've been a Bronco fan far longer than I have owned one.

Got this when I was 6 yrs old.

My father-in-law found this one at an antique shop.

I've got the same green one but the trailer is missing. I remember playing with it as a kid at my grandparents house. I also have something like 20 matchbox or hot wheels and a few of the Jada ones.

I think I also remember playing with that green bronco as a kid. Quite possible at my grandparents house as well!

I also have a pish-posh of matchbox sized cars. They are all in storage right now.

I'll play! I confess it's my only collection. I'm not a hoarder in every area of life just bronco toys.
I'm not sure how many different ones I have but it's a lot. But there are still a bunch I don't have that have been made over the years.

Nice collection Friday! I have to usually buy two or three of each. One for my son to play with and one to collect, and one as a backup...

Anyone find any of these matchbox sized bronco toys and there are extra, I would certainly appreciate you picking me up some if you don't mind dropping them in the mail to me! I'd certainly pay for it all. If I happen to have the already, my son would love to add them to his toy chest.

I'm not going to say how long it took me to make the red Lego Bronco. I'm also not going to tell my kids how many Lego structures I had to "borrow" pieces from...

I'm going through my social worker list of support & treatment groups. I'll let you know what you find. I heard there's one run by the group called Colorado Classic Broncos, but I hear they're really enabling.

Even have the wife trained so she looks at Target when she goes shopping smokin I'm actually going to start thinning them out down so I only have two of each, I've ended up with a bunch of duplicates over the years. I've rebuilt a few Nylint Bronco's over the years as Christmas gifts for a few of my great nieces and nephews in their favorite colors.

Yes, I see your problem, you are running out of shelf space and need to buy another shelving unit.

Keep me in mind, if you happen to need to thin the herd a little more... I might be interested in taking a few off your hands. Especially if you have duplicates so I can give my son one and one for me to collect.

Yessir, but we have an APO address. We are on the complete opposite side of Frankfurt from Kassel. Haven't explored that area yet.
