Whats more collectable then?

Seems like you can pick up some 1:18 for the same price as 1:43........surely the bigger ones would be worth more but most of you seem to collect 1:43?

All mine have originall boxes in mint cond.

I dont agree that the 1/43 are better. The quality and level of detail of some of the 1/18 are astoninshing.

Although I have quite a few different sizes in my range i still prefer the 1/18.
