My Fastest Expanding Toy Line Collection Of The Year Award
My Fastest Expanding Toy Line Collection Of The Year Award goes to:
My 1:24 scale die-cast Lamborghini model cars collection!
Comments: I had only 2 cars last year and by now I have 9 of them, including 1 yellow Murcielago Roadster (below) that I got for myself this Christmas. I even had the Roadster gift wrapped by the store that I bought from, for the Christmas feeling and I’m going to open it on Christmas Day!
I also have 2 non-Lamborghinis: an Audi R8 (above) and an Aston Martin DB9 (below), all in 1:24 scale. The latter has also been gift wrapped and is sitting under my Christmas tree. It’s another gift to myself this Christmas!
To think that I managed to clear off prime drawer space when I sold off a large portion of my baby My Little Pony collection during the year, only to have it quickly filled up by just a few cars.
I can’t explain why I love the Lamborghini car so much. This supercar just appeals to me since I first took close notice of it last year and I now can’t stop collecting the 1:24 scale models.
Read my past Lamborghini blog posts here.
My next acquistion target is the1:24 scale Lamborghini Gallardo Polizia model (above) by Bburago, that is scheduled for release this year. Gosh, it’s a never ending vicious toy collecting cycle!

The cars look cool…I always wanted to collect die cast cars but decided not to due to lack of space and $$
Thanks! I want the real ones too, but also lack of space and $$
I hardly come around female collector for cars esp die cast ones. The Audi look the best.
Thanks LEon, I’m considered quite an exceptional female toy collector. I started off with collecting X-Men Animated action figures about 10 years ago, and that surprised many toy sellers at the Clarke Quay flea market back then
Julianna,
is the white lambo (beside reventon) shown above the old gallardo or the new LP-640 just officially launch a few months ago?
thanks
Hi howe,
It’s a 1:24 scale Murcielago LP-640 by Maisto. I don’t know when it was officially released. I bought mine in Aug 2008 from a departmental store here in Singapore.
nice one…can’t seems to find any here in penang.
oh well, we’ll just have to wait and see then..
i’m interested in the new Gallardo LP-560. LP-640, so so only lor…
Hi howe,
I bought the 1:24 scale LP-640 because it came in white color, a color that I didn’t have in my Lamborghini model car collection then.
I like the Gallardo LP-560-4 too. I believe the model car should be out sometime this year. The Reventon model car came out in the stores around half a year after the real car was officially revealed to the public, if I recall correctly.
I’m also waiting for the 1:24 scale Gallardo Spyder to be made and released.
I have the reventon as well but in 1:18 scale.
I was thinking of repainting it to a metallic army color (just like the original car color).
The original color that Bburago painted, doesn’t seems too convincing to me.
You can have a look of the original one and compare here:

Hi howe,
Cool! Have fun customizing!
[...] Finally, I got a piece from OG Orchard using their latest Bburago catalog. The OG staff were very helpful in helping me secure this Lambo Polizia, which I had waited very long for. The kind lady OG staff offered to order the model car for me when I spotted its picture in the catalog. To my delight, the Lambo Polizia “drove” into the store within 2 weeks! I collected it over the weekend and here are its photos. It is the 10th Lamborghini to join my 1:24 scale model car collection! [...]
I have noticed you are a car enthusiast like me however I have no more space in my house now that 2 children have come on the scene and want to sell my collection to another enthusiast in the hope that they will also be well looked after.
If you are interested then please let me know.
I have a wide selection of over 30 maisto vehicles and can send pictures etc if you are interested let me know and once i send photeos you can hopefully make me an offer.
Regards
Lee
Hi Lee,
Thank you for your offer. I only collect Lambos in 1:24 scale and I have all the models I want. You can consider selling your collection on ebay or rent a locker space at Toy Outpost to sell them, good luck!
I have a model of a Lamborghini gallardo LP650-4 1:17 a very nice model I got him a place to stand where no one can come to touching
Hi auke,
That’s a good choice of car and storage location!
Hi Juliana
I’ve just looked at your car toy collection. It’s so amazing and awesome. I really love it especially Lamborghini cars. They’re beautiful and look like the real ones.
Could you please let me know where can I buy these car toys ?
I’m currently living in Vietnam. Not sure if the shop can ship to my country…
Thank you
Hi Juliana!
I love your car collection very much! I was wondering if you could tell me where you bought your Scale 1:24 Aston Martin DB9 model shown on the picture above. I’ve been looking for it for almost 2 years already and havnt found any shop that sells one.
Thanks
Hi Kyle,
Thank you for reading my blog. I bought mine from TRU Forum nearly 3 years ago. The dark blue box packaging says “Cars” while the brand name under the car itself says “Motor Max”. I think this item can be found at TRU Vivo City too. It comes in silver and dark grey.
