1972 Skyline GT-R Model/RC Set

To my great luck and surprise, Hotwheels apparently made a Hakosuka last year. With that, my favorite set grew by one more and in a brand new scale.

In order: MadSpeed 1/10 w/ Tamiya shell; Kyosho Mini-Z; 1/43 Die Cast of some sort; and Hotwheels.

For being only 1$, details are simply superb. Some of the interior is done as well, everything is nice and proper. Also, dimensions seem to be intact.

History Garage – Odaiba

This place made me drool, cry, and generally felt pretty euphoric.

And a couple of highlights:

First up, the Woodone GT Supra, but look at it, its not just another diecast model, its the newer reissue Kyosho Mini-Z!!! Also the only Mini-Z in the whole museum.

Next up, I finally saw my beloved Hakosuka in person, and that alone made the whole trip to Odaiba worth it!

My Skyline R32 GTS-t conversion, next to the pre-painted GT-R’s-

A/C Cobra in Metallic Blue with a lime offset stripe

Mirror’s Edge Faith Mazda RX-7 (FD3S)

Lotus Europa Special, and this one survived quite well after a season of racing.
