lauztuvas – turbo gum collector

After completing turbo sport Russian series, already few people asked me the same thing:

what you gonna do when all be collected?

My answer was:

turbo 1-50, turbo power, turbo covers.. long way till that. after finishing bi-bib, lazer center, kobra blue, mertsan 4 series and TAXI 1-170, i will think about.

Here I will post my extended answer to this.

I think you all might know what all those titles stands for, and what series it represents. But just in case you don’t, or maybe 4 different mertsan series seems confusing to you, I will explain. And this wish list somehow represents what I like to collect after turbo.

Turbo 1-50

Legendary turbo series, old and rare and painfully hard to get. I have completed first half of this series, and now have 26 different. Still 24 to go. It is possible to collect this series, but it need some very good luck to do that. I know it happens sometimes, and I hope it will repeat few times more. Current missing list can be found here http://need.turbogum.com/#the-turbo

Turbo power

It’s stickers, well know by it’s name turbo power. Originally made by Kent company in mid 90’s. Who do collect turbo papers, those want to collect power stickers as well. Hard to get item, not so rare, just not very common. I do happen to have some of them for exchange if anybody interested. There are two types of them, original Power numbers 1-259, and Turbo Power, numbered 148-259, those pictures are the same as Power stickers. Missing list here http://need.turbogum.com/power-stickers Still have many to finish, as any as I could find. There are still few missing stickers waiting for me, so missing list can change in near future.

Turbo covers

I think i’m the only (correct me if I’m wrong) so much interested in turbo covers, that I have made dedicated website for them, that also acts like my missing list: http://covers.turbogum.com I have found many of my missing covers, time by time, and there are still many covers left to find. As always, when you are closer to the end, there are much more difficult to get what you need. If anybody have something from my missing, give me know.

Bi-Bib

Nice and cool cars from the 70’s. One of my favorite (you might guess) gum series. I have some story told about my bi-bib gum papers here, and I’m now missing about 10 items to this series http://need.turbogum.com/auto-moto#bi-bib

Lazer with center text

This lazer series, featuring various war machines, happen to be somehow rare, and not so ofter you can find them. They are just cool, nothing special. I’m collecting them just for fun, and to finish them. How they look like I did show here and my current missing list of this series can be found here http://need.turbogum.com/auto-moto#lazer-center-text Missing count: 17.

Kobra blue text

Same thing as with Lazer. We have Kobra, and we have bonus blue Kobra. Black simple Kobra is collection of 100 items. Blue bonus Kobra is collection of 50 items.  Missing list here http://need.turbogum.com/auto-moto#kobra-blue Missing count: have almost half series.

Mertsan 4 series

Mertsan 20.000 Daca 1-50, Mertsan 20.000 IMpreuna 1-50, Mertsan 250.000 1-50. Mertsan 250.000 1-66. Anybody have some questions? Missing list somewhere around here: http://need.turbogum.com/auto-moto#mertsan-20-000-daca

TAXI 1-170

This series is one of those rare and super cool. Also expensive and hard to find. I should get some of them soon in few weeks, and I will write more info about them. Missing list here, and still many many to collect.

So here’s what I will be collecting for ages, and I do not think that ALL will be collected someday. Collecting is more fun in progress rather than completed result. So happy collecting.
