Default Picked up some toy cars straight from Japan

Well I went to a huge flea market that's close to me [Roger's Flea Market for you Ohio/PA/West Virginia people]. I was looking around when this one guy had a display of toy cars that he got from Japan.

They are hotwheels sized diecast cars from a company called TOMY. They are a large toy producer in Japan.

Here's a picture of the 4 cars I got from him for $16 for all four.

Sorry about the picture, my digi sucks.

From left to right-

R33 Skyline GT-R Investigation Car-It's silver with a small red police light on the roof. The doors open and reveals a detailed RHD interior.

Honda NSX Patrol Car- It has the Japanese PD's black and white paint scheme. It also comes with a small sheet of stickers that have all the police marks from the JPD that you can put onto the car.

Honda NSX-R-This car is well detailed for the size. It has the black wing, non-pop up headlights, a red H on the hood, and has a red interior. Very nice.

Toyota Supra-It's a MKIV. The doors open on it and has a nice interior.

The guy that sold me the cars also has a few other ones from the same company.

If you goto this website http://www.tomy.co.jp/tomica/

Click on Showroom, then click on the first option on the left.

This gallery shows you all the cars available from TOMY.

I think it was a good deal.
