Message: I wonder if the time is right to combine the 1/24 and 1/18 forums? As the 1/24 'stuff' becomes less available (maybe even unavailable), those of us that intend to continue collecting will increasingly have to become more open to all scales. I know that I've always collected whatever appeals to me regardless of scale. There'd be lots more 'diecast' to talk about.
