Picked up a LC250 in Japan and brought it home!

Based on the VIN, It’s from the network shuttle factory

. Though I much prefer Tomica factory, this will do for now! I always get 1:64 scale models of my cars, anyone else?

Where did you get that? It’s really cool.

I already took ours wheeling with the family! Just check out the flex on that LC!

(Not pictured is our transit van, it was in the shop with a busted axle from off-roading too hard.)

Is there a stateside source?

Hi all, I have been collecting 18 scale die casts for 25+ years. I do have a Land Cruiser in 18 scale of year 2000 model. I will wait till a 12 scale (very pricey) or an 18 scale is available.

The suspension travel on that is horrible... fyi

Esquire · Thursday at 11:16 AM

It doesn't have the Premium Pkg or 20" wheels. Doubtful on the illuminated door sills. Not Interested.

But on the other hand there's no wasted space on a cool box!

I noticed during checkout, the shopping cart automatically added clear coating, door guards, high speed charging cables, and a seller markup bringing the total for the miniature Land Cruiser toy car to $4,999. It was out of stock, but I could put down a deposit to get on a waiting list.

That is cool! Back in 2006, I ordered one of the first FJ Cruisers, then I received a smaller one, that got really good mileage. I sold cruiser, too many kids, and gave the new owner the model.
Can you show it crushing a EV Hummer please, maybe a short movie.

Nice!! Up until I bought a 2007 Acura MDX in 2016 I could always find a hot wheels of every car I’d had, or reasonably close facsimile, if not an actual collector version die cast. That’s kinda when I stopped bothering. I may well have to pick this up again.

Stateside I find Mattel has had lackluster options since the late 90s. Hence why I usually have better luck with Tomica, they have multiple different lines from classic to modern and for Japanese, European and American

Appears sold out.

You’re putting me to shame—mine’s just a mall-crawler

The salesman I bought my LC from sent me one in Trail Dust to match my ride through the mail a few weeks after I took delivery. I thought it was really thoughtful.

Damn, I was at that store last month in Shinjuku and did not see it. That's a great price. They are expensive on eBay. Going back to Japan in December and will make sure I get one there.
