My TLV Collection at 2009 Motor Madness Exhibit

Found a few OLD photos of my Tomica Limited Vintage collection that was included at the 2009 Motor Madness Exhibit (Tomica Philippine Distributor's Event) at Trinoma Mall, Quezon City, Philippines.

Thanks for viewing!

Who's thirsty for Coke?

When I learned that Tomica Limited Vintage will release a Coke Route Truck a few months ago, I didn't hesitate in ordering one from an online store. I was very excited for it's release but had to wait for weeks to arrive. Finally I received a postal notice last Thursday, woohoo!

Here are photos of the very detailed Coke Route Truck:

What did I open today?

It's been a while since my last post, I've been busy with work lately and just found time to open then shoot this 2-car gift set the other day.

Tomica Limited Vintage - Nostalgic Emergency Gift Set Vol. 1
LV-30 Nissan Junior - Fire Engine
LV-47 Prince Skyway - Fire Department Ambulance






I pre-ordered this set last year, it was part of my Christmas gift for myself. I almost lost this set since it took more than 2 months to reach me. The postal notice from our local Post Office got misplaced and the people from the PO had a hard time looking for the package. Luckily, they still found it hidden beneath all the unclaimed packages.

Here are photos of the models. =)

TLV-68 Subaru Sambar Pumper

The Subaru Sambar is an automobile built by automaker Subaru for the Japanese market. It is Japan's first Keitora, which means "kei class truck" and is still in production. The Sambar is available in both microvan and Kei truck (Pickup truck style) to fulfill the Kei car guidelines. Still flourishing in the Japanese automotive industry, the Sambar continues to be produced in Japan, China, Korea, as well as in Finland with a joint venture with Elcat Automotive.

The name "Sambar" comes from a deer native to India commonly used to carry small loads.

Since its introduction, the Sambar has used a rear engine, rear wheel drive format (with optional 4WD from 1980 on), with the first two generations using the air-cooled engine from the Subaru 360, and later generations using the water cooled engine from the Subaru Rex, Vivio and the Pleo.

The current 2008 Subaru Sambar model is still using the Sixth Generation chassis and body with updated fascia. It was the first Kei truck in Japan that used a cabover design, with the passenger cabin over the engine.
