Aurora and Speedline Collection

I have collected them for a long time and have about 325 of them in my collection. Still I do not know that much about them other than I really like them. From what I have read Aurora tried to compete with Hot Wheels with these models but discontinued them in about 18 months. They are very fragile compared to any other brand. There are a lot of broken and damaged ones and very few mint ones.

They come in 3 basic styles:
Cigar Box - colored plastic with either rubber or plastic tires, these came in minature "Cigar Boxes"
Speedline - metalized plastic with either rubber or plastic tires, these came on blister cars
"Cheapie" - the final style which is very cheaply made and do not have windows or metal bases, these came on blister cards
Some of the plastic tires have silver paint spokes
