"The Pile"
Mark Kasimoff
(August 2003)
The Transition Table
The Transition Pegboard |
| The BP's on the left of the table are mostly Hot Wheels but there are also Tonka's, Johnny Lightning, and MatchBox in there too. Pick up a few cars and throw them on the pile. |
| Some cars were piled up elsewhere in the house until the better half starts vocalizing her growing impatience. A few layers of one of the stacks are Treasure Hunts waiting to be liberated. The extra TailDraggers will be saved for customs. |
| When the pile gets too high, and when I get tired of picking them up when the table gets bumped, I get some more storage containers from Hot-Cases.com |
| I really like the Hot-Cases because we can fit more cars in the case than the old standard flat cardboard cases that Hot Wheels basic assortment used to come in. I like being able to look through the lid and tell what cars are in there. |

This stack of loose BP's is mostly cars that are waiting to be added to my Red, White and Blue page. The green cars are actually few Hulk Avalanches from Maisto/Tonka. Some cars that you may make out are the Matchbox Postal Truck w/logo, Hot Wheels Star Spangled Series cars, HEB Highway Haulers, an Old Matchbox Rollamatic Fandango. Of course that's Yoda hanging from the nail. He was so cool in the ending of Star Wars Episode II. On top of and in the boxes are various Red Line Club cars. I toss my loose cars into the center area of the table. |
 |
| Towards the right, Liberty Promotions "Service Vans". One the left, the stack of Space Ace Laserdiscs that I need to test to see if they are OK to sell or if they have laser rot. If so, then they are only good to frame for posterity. |
|
On the far right, a tub full of Convention cars and Red Line Club cars. In case of fire, this is the one to grab! And if you seen the scale in an earlier picture, it is to estimate shipping charges. Not to weigh anything that I'm not supposed to have :) I keep the shipping tape there as proof :)
Oh yeah, the box on the back right corner... |
 |
| The shrink wrap holds some Hot Wheels with mixed wheel errors. Also a Surfin' School Bus with an upside down engine! |
| But what are those cars in the box with the White bases :) |
| Dang, I still have this dresser drawer to clear out! |
