which ones do you have russell? i brought that same black matchbox on ebay about a year ago still perfect in package, they were limited to like 25,000 worldwide or something. i have a few of the fujimy (sp?) kit ones i think the m5, the hartge and the ACS. trying to start a collection too. too bad noone ever made a metal 1:18 scale e34. or atleast i don't think anyone made one. i cant find one anywhere and no one ive talked to ever seen one.
You might do a web search. There are several sources for bmw models. I think one is Michael Leinhart(spelling) . Of course e-bay is a good source. I have purchased several there with no problems.
By the way, there are two versions of the matchbox e34 cars. One rather plain and the other a premier (sp). It had better wheels and trim painted. It was black. I think there was a red premier version as well that was sold in europe.
