I got this Versatile 1150 1/16th scale tractor made by Scale Models as a child during Farmfest (a farming convention that was held for a number of years down by Mankato, MN) in the late 80's.

Tonka Clutch Popper
Made by Tonka in 19080~82, these had a friction motor that one would spin up and not take off until one hit either the low or high speed buttons at the rear.
Honda Odyssey, I lost the driver and the rollbar.
Honda ATC-200

Stompers!
Stompers! I had much fun with these. Four wheeled drive, battery powered by a AA battery. The later ones had "trick wheel" that fastened to the under side so the toy could drive on two wheels. Others had a high and low speed, and a neutral. Another one I had a PTO driven winch. The battel tank with working treads. The Semi required two batteries and was six wheel drive. The smaller one was from McDonalds happy meal or something, it used a AAA battery. I also broke my fair share, I never did learn how to solder very good, and once the motor & gear cover came off it would not hold the gears in place.
Sold...

Random Hotwheels, Matchbox, Ertl collection
My only HotWheels Redline in my collection: "Whip Creamer". The orange Matchbox/Lesney is a BMW 2001 IIRC with opening doors.
'78 Lamborghini Countach by Lesney with opening hood. Hotwheels Dixie Challenger
Ertl Chevy Truck, this came with a single axle car trailer and a race car as part of a Hardees promotion. Apparently at sometime I broke the hitch off! :'(
Another Ertl truck, that apparently younger me decided that it needed to be painted in Sharpie Black. Matchbox "Main battle tank" with opening rear door and movable turret.
1977 Lesney Holden
Lesney Ford F100, this one I played with at grandma's house, and I made sure to acquire it when she moved off of the farm. I do have two of them.
Lesney Ford Transit with camper/carevan. As a child I "re-painted" it with White-Out"! LoL!
Tonka Pickup Trucks
The trucks are metal bodied, but plastic frames. The red one has many miles on it from yours truly, if fact it sits a little bit lower than it should has the metal axle shafts wore into the plastic frame. The other two came with trailers.
Hotwheels Chess!
HotWheels as a complete collection of cars as chess pieces, known as their CheckMate Series! Several sellers on eBay offer the complete kit and custom chess boards.
As of 12/22 this picture is my current collection of this set in the boxes.
I acquired the entire collection! They are out of the box and used, but a complete set...well kind of. For the pawns there are four variants: the original VW Beetle, Ford 2012 Fiesta Rally, "Audacious", and "Fast 4wd". What many people do is have all eight pawns matching; and often have multiple sets of pawns (IE one set of Beetles, one set of Fiestas, etc.). I think I will limit myself to have two pawns of each style. Except I am short two white "Fast 4wd" cars. This also means I have extras pawns to sell off. Six black beetles, six Audacious, etc. Unless I decide to just keep them, since I already have the "set" and getting them in the future would be difficult.

M2 cars
I just stumbled across these M2 cars. They are 1/64 scale, rubber tires, around forty parts, super high detailed, down to painted badges & emblems, head and tail lights. The Chevy has an opening hood and doors. The 1946 Dodge Cab Over Engine doesn't have any opening bits, but does feature 42 parts. Studebaker truck, I believe it is a 1948, with opening hood and doors. this one is missing the rear bumper and rear tail lights. Ignor the hood props! LOL! I also got a 1948 Studebaker truck with snow plow (not pictured).
