Dr Scott D Gillogly's collection of 3,500 Matchbox toys could raise up to a million US dollars when they go under the hammer later this year. 
You can see why - this one is estimated to be worth £5,000
Scott from Atlanta has spent years collecting but has decided that's enough.
Vectis Auctioneers will sell the cars for from Atlanta, USA, in Middlesbrough in September. Andrew Reed, who is collating the toys for Vectis and flew to Atlanta to pick them up, explained 'He just feels now that the chase is over and he has collected as many variations as he can,' he said.
These will be auctioned in three parts on September 16 and 17 this year.
