Gallery : Tokyo Auto Salon 2016 Tomica Exclusives

January 26, 2016Dream Tomica, Event Model, Gallery, Premium829 Japan

Tomica salon exclusives are more and more difficult to get. At the Tokyo Motor Show in October, visitors were allowed to purchase only two pieces of the Tomica Premium Nissan ID-S and Toyota SF-R. This time at the Auto Salon visitors were limited to only one piece of the exclusives Tomica ! As a result many Japanese collectors who could not attend the venue and required the help of a friend to get the cars have now no choice but hunting them on Yahoo Auctions. And when the demand largely exceeds the offer, prices are escalating.

We managed to get hold of the two Auto Salon exclusives, so you can take a good look at them before emptying your wallet.

Tomica Premium Nismo R34 GT-R Z-tune Proto.

This car is exactly the same as the Premium #01 Nismo R34 GT-R Z-tune, with a new decoration.

Dream Tomica Initial D Takahashi Brothers Set

This set includes the RX-7 FC3S and the RX-7 FD3S Project D Version. These cars will get a regular release in March.
