You can have one car and one costume from any movie... (with restrictions)

While there are probably more elaborate costumes in the MCU, many of them are CGI.... so I'll go with my favorite that I know is practical...

... but it has to include the shield.

That is a good car. I had a replica of the old one in the '60s movie, a Corgi from England. Wish I still had that. That was a cool car when I was a kid. I'll skip the Fat Thor outfit though.

I still have that Corgi Aston Martin in a basement box of old Hot Wheels from my childhood.. One button on the side for the ejector seat, another for the pop-up rear bullet shield and front-mounted machine gun.

This is the one you're talking about, right?

That was exactly the car I had! Mine might not have been quite as chipped. But pretty close. I had lost the little guy out of the ejection seat early on in owning it. It got played with. Not treated as a museum piece. Thanks for posting that pic of yours!

We had a babysitter, and older woman from London, who had lived through air raids as a kid, that would go back and visit family (she had married a serviceman and moved across the pond), and would bring us gifts. She was super nice and very interesting. Good ol' Mrs. Wetch. She was a huge Beatles fan too. My parents didn't listen to them, but she did.

That's not mine, I just Googled it, but mine is pretty beat up like that. As kids, we played with our toys....hard...never considered keeping them for museum pieces or future value. I kept that box of toys thinking they might be worth something, but they're all pretty beat up, so I doubt it. My kids played with them when they were small, now I'll probably just hold onto them for the grandkids, should I be so lucky.

I think @dodgechargerfan collects Hot Wheels, or did at one time. I should take some photos and see if I have anything of value. :shrug:

My hot wheels, and I had a good number of them, and matchbox and corgi, ended up in a car port at my Mom and Dad's place on Puget Sound which was very damp. Everything molded and rusted out there, and got full of spiders and such. It all got given away.
 
I'd take a Ferrari GT250 California Spyder similar to the one from Ferris Bueller's day off. But a real one, not a replica like was in the movie.

..and one of James Bond's suits.

The movie (The Gumball Rally) is the easy part. The choice of the authentic 427 Shelby Cobra CSX3243, the 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Spider, or the 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster is a little more challenging.

Out of laziness and my limited wardrobe, I'll stick with the same movie using Michael Sarrazin's blue shirt and leather jacket.

Not to hijack the thread any further, but yeah, I lost some stuff when I moved out too that I wish I still had. As a kid, we used to go to a lot of Houston Astros games and I had a glove that I would take. We'd get there early enough for warm-ups and I'd go by the dugouts and try to get autographs. I had a bunch on that glove, most notable was Micky Mantle. Wish I still had it.

I see what you're doing there. Actually it's the bike I imagined Chaz riding to the funeral. An off camera character.

I'm not sure what you mean. My bro had a yellow Schwinn Stingray. I had a Purple Schwinn. It is called a 'Sissy bar' , because if you are a passenger and you held onto it, your manhood was questioned. Like two dudes on one seat wasnt weird.
