Tomica Limited TL0137 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R (PGC10), the 1st Nissan Skyline GT-R appear at Feb 1969 and Hakosuka (ハコスカ) by fans. Hako (ハコ) means Box in Japanese, and suka(スカ) is short for Skyline (スカイライン; Sukairain).
Recently Tomica Limited always release the old model, some fan say that boring to see repeat Tomica Limited, but this is good for those who miss the early release.
Hotwheels Nissan Skyline R32, another Japanese car from recently haul. http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif I have done a little touch up as photos, but i forget repaint the uncle gold rims....OMG
I get this Hotwheels Nissan Skyline R32 from my friend with loose condition. The condition a bit poor due to this is quite old ~ some paint already drop (decal & rim).
I did some restore job on it and also some detailing touch-up ~ Head lamp, back light and also spoiler.
This real car was released in February 1969 and at first only came in sedan form, until two years later, in March 1971 the coupe (KPGC10) followed.
This Tomica Limited was made is vietnam, 2 color (red & yellow) used as TL0126 color. Nice color matching and clean paint job. This color believed drive by legend driver Masahiro Hasemi.
When 1st see at it (photo), I though that is Safety Car too. After have it and look into the name I know I make mistake. This is Nissan GT-R Abu Dhabi Police Portal Car.
This time, I compare the Tomica Limited 0045 with latest Tomica Limited Vintage Neo Skyline Super Silhouette.
I compare both side by side, both is difference year Skyline Super Silhouette. that why the rim & decal difference.
You still can get the Tomica Limited Vintage Neo Skyline Super Silhouette in market but you may hard to get the Tomica Limited 0045 Skyline Silhouette due to it release few years ago and price increase a lot.
