Cracking photo's! A small fortune in them as well.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Those ships are cool, are they Dinky?

I've only ever seen a few dinkys for sale and the prices have been interesting to say the least. My dad used to have a few as a kid and often regales me of tales of what he had when he sees my collecting.

I have a Dinky anti tank gun that is with my Brtains stuff. I have had this since I was very small and think that the old man bought this for himself really! Unfortunately he did'nt keep the box! I also used to have a Police van with cones and other bits. Unfortunately I trashed it :-( Dinky is serious collecting and serious wedge but a good investment.
