Keep checking off the list. First it was the Tomicarama, then the Nissan Atlas Hauler, and now the Hino 5-car Transporter. Tomica Limited Vintage is throwing collectors a bone, and you’d be smart to take advantage.
Prices on many of the most sought-after TLV have skyrocketed, and the Hino 5-car Transporter is one of them. Prices for the previous three are anywhere from $300 for the most recent release to $600 for the first. Those are crazy prices to be sure, but folks are buying them.
But don’t fret, because TLV is making a fourth:
The price when it is released in February 2019 will be around $110 (Japan Booster is accepting pre-orders. If it shows out of stock keep checking back). That might seem steep for a 1/64 model but trust me it is not. First the price will go up like it did on the previous three, can second it is a super cool model. The rear door on the trailer opens and the top shelf lowers for cars to drive up.
I highly suggest getting one, but then again I say that for all TLV.
Because the others are great too. Two 4-door Skyline GT-R and two Toyota Mark II. They are all available for pre-order, and worth it.
Is the trailer metal, plastic, or a combo?
I placed my pre-order on this one. I really hope the trailer is metal. For the money, it should be.
