You're lucky. A long time ago (long before the internet), I bought a collection
off a retiree that basically doubled my LEGO collection at the time (now it
might make a dent, but not much).
Anyway, whilst sorting it I came across a few matchbox or hotwheels (or so I
thought) so I threw them out! See, until the internet I had no idea that LEGO
'dabbled' in cast cars. Thinking back, since the rest of the collection was
pure LEGO-i.e. no other junk, I'm thinking that the cars were LEGO cars and not
hotwheels/matchbox.
Live and learn :(
