Yeah. Those insulator caps are great to collect because they are so common. There's a ton of variety and you can often get them for really cheap.

If you want to share, I'd love to see some of your collection. I don't collect classic toys myself but it'd be cool to see what you have and what you think of them.

I don't really collect old toys. I collect new ones on occasion if I find one I know I can flip later.

I swear I had a cement mixer that I liked more. Maybe it made its way into my back seat. They're kinda neat but it's not really my thing. I just can't visit my grandma without her loading me up with stuff she wants to get rid of.

Those are so cool! They're in better shape than I thought too. Have you ever thought about regifting some of the stuff she's given you? People seem to really appreciate antiques as gifts, even if they're not in the best of shapes.

I worked with a guy for a day who liked old toys and antiques but I forgot they were in my trunk. I'm about the only person I know who appreciates this kinda stuff.

You just gotta help your buds get bit by the bug. ;)
