Talking Die Cast toys

I started an accidental collection when I began finding metallic toys while metal detecting.
Over the years I have found quite a few. Other people find them too, all the time.
I started to realize that they were beggining to accumulate.
I do collect arrowheads, among other things, but me being a man I have an affinity to toy trains trucks cars......
I will start out my very first post on this forum with a toy tractor.
I really enjoyed "playing" with this particular toy, it is still functional.
My wife began laughing at me saying "Boys and their Toys".

I agree. I wish I would've kept all the toys I found while MDing.

Awesome, B2S!~ I pick 'em up while detecting, too. They are all over the place, should get them all together. Only have a few pics... Of course most of them were played with until they broke or are destroyed by being in the ground, but some of them do come out sweet, don't they?!!?? Die casts and dog tags, YEAH, Baby!

Nice Tootsie Toys.
They are among my favorites.
Here's a 50's eras Tootsie Toy Jet.
Just don't see these often.
