Tomica 40th Anniversary Nissan Fairlady Z432 - Fukkoku Commemoration - 40周年記念 復刻トミカ フェアレディ Z 432

This is rather commercialized post, but I think you can forgive me for this one.  I was recently blindsided on AmiAmi with one of these.  It was easy to understand the type of release this car was, but AmiAmi on newer 1/64 cars, it's typical for them to have poor pics, small pics, or occasionally, no pic at all.  :(

I was browsing for some Tomica playsets for my nephew on Amazon today, and bam:

Yeah, AmiAmi prices are nice, but they don't even have one in stock.  It may be worth your while to just grab one from Amazon.  Pricing in my book is reasonable, and these special editions tend to be hard to get after while.  I like the slick looking stand, too.                  




Edit:  More I found on Amazon:

I'm not sure if the Skyline is part of it?  This one isn't pictured with the stand, and also has Tomica logo tampo on the side.....

As with any sites like these, pricing is up & down.  Not sure why the gold Crown Super Deluxe is currently $60+, but there probably is a reason for that.  If Kenmeri was little bit cheaper, or available in white, I'd been all over that.  :p

I have few of these M2 Haulers, but this was my first.  So many thanks to M2 for coming up with such a fun set with so much style, and also Walmart for carrying it.
