Diecast Japanese vans!

I have always liked vans. Currently own a 95 Toyota Previa LE SC and 14 Toyota Sienna SE

So naturally, I would want to get diecast vans. Unfortunately, Matchbox and Hot Wheels haven't really made many vans.

Hot Wheels did release a Honda Odyssey and the RR Honda Odyssey based of the Bisimoto 1000hp van.

It wasn't until 2016, when I was in Japan, I picked up a few vans.

I decided I need to get some of the older vans, so my brother Noguchi-san helped me find some and sent them to me!

Machine RS 2 and 3

In this Skyline bundle, I didn't expect to have extra chassis. But there were a couple boxes with 2 chassis. Most of the parts were in the sandwich bags. But the RS 2 was missing a set of wheels. I went through the bags to make sure that the everything is there and it seems like it. I've started on the RS-3, but the detail is pretty intense. The body is red and I need to paint the lower half black. I was hoping to get these done first, but I need to get a some different colors. The RS 2 is already painted, but gotta paint the bottom also. I have some extra wheels from the Grand Champion model, so I could use it but it is without tires.

Rant: Not finding the cars I want

One of the biggest issues for me is that I often NEVER see some of the cars I want local to me. When the Japanese Historic collection came out, I was NEVER able to find them locally. When the Transports series with the Japanese cars came out, I was never able to find them locally. Cars and doughnuts? Fast and the Furious? I don't know what it is, but I never see them around my area. It truly sucks!!! /Rant

Hot Wheels Project Cars 2: Acura NSX GT3

Been searching for these cars. I feel I live in an area that has either small supplies given to my local stores or there are a bunch of collectors. I found this unexpectedly in a local Walgreens that is pretty much no selection of Hot Wheels. Nonetheless, I had to get it. Still debating on opening it. I am not a hardcore collector, but I chase cars I like.

Scale car hobby and variety
