Visiting the Toy Pimp's room at the Matchbox Gathering...

Another reason to visit the Matchbox Gathering.

If you are on Instagram, and you collect, there is a good chance you are familiar with the Toy Pimp.

In case everybody is wondering what is taking so long to get his act together, consider: after receiving 60 kg worth of model cars from his trip to Japan (125 pounds worth), he has to go through everything, price them, and sort them. This photo is of the Nissan skyline's and GTR's only. I have just as many datsun Zs to go through. And that is not including the Silvia's, the Bluebirds, the Mitsubishis, the Hondas… You get the picture. The toy pimp also has a day job, with frighteningly regular deadlines, and a nine-year-old son. I am starting to crawl out from under the pile I made for myself, and you will begin to see some goodies here, probably this weekend. #diecast #jdm #thankyouforyourpatience #nissanjam2016
