Tomica LImited Vintage NEO: LV-N125a Isuzu Gemini Patio('87) + LV-N126a Nissan Skyline 25GT-X Mobile Investigation Vehicle('00)

First of all, special thanks to fellow TLV collector Jarrod, aka Spacegoat for letting me use these pictures.  You can check out his gallery here for his latest cars.  

What led me to ask Jarrod for this favor were these wheels.  Both latest Tomica Limited Vintage cars, but observe:

First, plain wheels of Isuzu Gemini.  Very minimal detailing without any paint or openings.

Then we get this Skyline with open spokes & brake rotors peeking behind them.

Very nice, but WTF is going on with this company.  Supra wheels were the same way.  First sets had ugly plain wheels.  Second wave had "openings" painted in black & looked much better.  I personally expect lot more than that from TLV.  Speaking of WTF, I found this in Jarrod's Flickr gallery:
