Lee, Richie C, thanks for the replies. Those may be too big, not the right style but they may be a start.
Hey Coach I went to Tractor Supply today and got the last Boom truck they had left over from Christmas for a nice $8. After I paid the guy said if you waited till next week it might be half of that. I told him I already had all the other trucks in their collection! LOL
Good to see all the great vehicles and layouts. Always a good variety.
Here are a whole lot of pics around the layouts, I really like all the custom and movie/tv cars.

That's a nice touch with the Reliant Robin on it's side!

Squonk, I was thinking along the same lines. I always thought a "Robin" would made a good side car for the Batmobile (see what I did there? :-). 
KJ356, I'm especially taken with your Greyhound Bus. What an awesome model. The green Dodge is sweet, too.
Tomlinson Run Railroad
Here is a link to a review of the bus model and details 1/50 scale Iconic replicas.

Just in case you have never seen it Mr. Bean had the green mini and him in the chair on top of the car is a 1/32 Scaletrix slot car is one of his skits and the other a 1/43 car and in one of his movies he tips over the little blue 3 wheeler it appears in several of his movie skits. The green dodge is a Hallmark ornament.
Imagine having an O scale model of one of these on your layout and watching those who think they know every car ever made, trying to figure out what it is.
Ha. It's very possible that a Forum sponsor like Diecast Direct has something like that or may carry it someday. They certainly offer other vehicles from the RoboCop franchise. I don't recall the scale 'though.
Another Menards Find from the 3 buck toy bin. There are a few packs, each containing a pickup and trailer. Pickups look underscale, but trailers have allot of potential. The box trailer might be well served grabbing a pair of the larger wheels from a truck.
Figures are 1/48 and 1/56.

Where did you find them, on-line or in person? I couldn't locate anything even remotely like them on-line, even at full price.
Will add a couple of new car purchases later....miss seeing this thread!

That would be great Paul I must be missing something as I haven't seen a post from here for along time! I am going to have to check my settings!
Some new additions.
Grand Strand Model RR train show this past weekend. The Corgi Cities Service had to come home for $20. The trailers were meant for flat car loads but the vendor threw in the red and green semis. A Corgi bus, Madison Ave. Line for $20 another must have and the Pepsi suburban to go with my Menard's Pepsi box truck.

Wow Joe what a haul! I like those Champs of the Road ones K Mart was the exclusive seller for them they look great with Don Mills wheels and tires. That red one is a Little Window Peterbilt that they base off of the AMT 1/25 model kit as well as those trailers all of them are in 1/50 scale. Can we have a better shot at that corgi tanker? I never seen that one.

Me too. I need to get to building some trucks and finishing some
I'll try to take a better one tomorrow.
Joe, that sure was a great haul! You got some really nice stuff there!
