Graham Hamilton - Brand Ambassador & Matchbox/Diecast Toy Specialist

Hello,

I’m Graham & I’m delighted to join forces with the Oberon team. I have had a passion for collecting, buying & selling classic & vintage toys for 35 years now. In the beginning I was solely a collector obtaining my models from toy shows in the South East area including Guildford, Farnham Maltings, Kempton Park & Sandown.

I soon realised that to collect items of quality and rarity was going to cost a pretty penny so I turned my attention to part time dealing to finance the hobby. This became so successful that in 2004 I gave up my managerial role in a bathroom company to focus on selling toys professionally.

I set up “Rockertron Toys” to specialise in the diecast toys of my childhood and also the classic era of 1950-1980. This would in the main include Matchbox but also all the other famous brands to include Dinky, Corgi, Britain’s, Lone Star, Airfix & Hot Wheels.

Although I did sell my entire Matchbox collection in 2021 with the help of Julian, I started again a week after! It’s just a drug and I can’t stop! I still have a sizeable British diecast toy collection & have added Matchbox back into again.

My role in this company is to expand the brand by making it an exciting selling & buying experience for likeminded collectors & dealers. Our live bidding room sales will now hopefully attract buyers back into the saleroom as it used to be.

I will be advising & valuing in all areas of vintage diecast to make it the most comfortable experience.

I look forward to advising the best strategy for selling your collection soon!
