Curious..does anybody else collect Tomica Capsule Cars?

I wasn't really sure where to post this, but I'm a huge fan of these lil Capsule Cars, they're kinda like Japanese Micro Machines, sold in Japanese vending machines..somehow both the machines and the cars trickled into the US, and I've been hunting and collecting ever since. I've got a very modest collection but I'm gonna start mass buying from websites and e-bay. So far I've got:

Nissan Fairlady Z (350 over here..), silver.
Nissan R-32 Skyline GT-R (Special race colors)
Toyota Majesta Police Cruiser
Porsche 930 Turbo
Really old Nissan Sentra (so it says) (Special Race colors)
Porsche 356? Roadster (know its a Porsche..know its old..not much else, the little box is all Japanese.)

Thats all. Maybe if some others start collecting we can get a trading ring going on

My computer is acting up and pics of the things (and decent catalog sites) for them are scarce, but I scrounged up one for you, a shelf with a couple of them on it (and two larger scale Skylines on the bottom of the shelf)

I have a tractor trailer. It is red and white. The Zern's has them for a dollar.
