Cool. How did you get into that? I mean, most of us collect SW because we remember playing with the toys as kids.

yes like any hobby the sky is the limit,old bottles are a good investment,they never really go down in price,if anything they go up 5 percent a year.its the third biggest hobby in the world behind stamps and coins
