Picked up this vintage Tomy car carrier a little bit ago on a bit of a whim, really happy with it... surprising thing to me is the entire trailer is made of metal, not plastic! Great build quality and detailing... has little wheel chalk areas and dips for the tires of the cars to go into so they don't roll around free when loaded and the ramp goes down for loading. The truck has mirrors to attach but they're separated in the box for storage so I didn't put them on for the pictures.

It's quite a bit bigger than I expected actually! Would have preferred a dark navy blue or maybe a dark grey, but the green suits the period I guess and is growing on me:


Hit that from the back:


Just enough clearance to roll the NSX-R on without scraping:


Load 'er up! It can take 5 cars no problem despite the fact both those cars are Kyosho not Tomica... should have used something more period like a Toyota 2000GT but most of them are in packages:

finally picked up the Porsche of my dreams. never knew they had a model of it till I browsed through a magazine..

964 Carrera 3.8RS ...... one awesome resin model by GT spirit. Very well made just like the 993 Carrera RS.



picked up a 1/43 scale version of the "one off" new age Lancia Stratos. I know they wont make 1/18 for sure, so I swooped this up.

small part of my collection. the 1.18 scale is all recent, the russian cars are all from soviet era, cept for the crashed ones, those are from 6 years ago and are garbage, hence why they are crashed.
