I don't particularly think it would be a good idea... and I don't think
the DOA would go for it either.

The DOA dislikes this list; I doubt that they would start another one
similar to it. The closest thing they might do would be to produce an
Internet based newsletter subscription (they may already have something
like this, actually), discussing events and other things.

I'm not sure whether the majority of the toy-car, video-game posters are
owners or not - and certainly owners do contribute to this sort of thread.
Conversely, there are non-owners who contribute significant real content. 
And most people would just subscribe to both lists, anyway.
