BTW the 25th anniversary line, while classed as 3 3/4 seems closer to four inch to me

You speaketh the truth! I've bought various cars and bikes, bikes you can always fit to the 25th, but they are always a tad to tall for the cars (which sux).
So if you go looking for cars to fit them in, make sure before you buy it that they will fit. (this is for the 25th especially since they are taller then 3 3/4)

Nah. I am 99,5% a buyer, 0,5% a trader and 0% a seller. I just did a search on eBay.

For intance I recently purchased this horrible construction set because it came with is amazing crane. Don't get me wrong everything else in the set clearly garbage put the crane is great. Its in store now by the way. Sometimes the tonka stuff is dead on too like there garbage truck or fire truck. Hell even the stuff you get a toysrus is great for the Oktober guard.
