Thanks for the compliments. I hope I don't come across as trying to "show-off" like some of the collectors we know. My case is that I wanted more to help move this thread and also share the fun of Tomica collecting. I assure you that they are many much greater collectors out there, especially those from the land of the rising sun (Eleewhm is one good example)

what I admire about the folks here is their chatty friendliness and use of creativity when posting their hunts/buys.
I gather from the members here that the Tomica stock situation is worse in M'sia which is quite a pity (will anyone take it up and write to the distributor?). Do take some comfort that most of my collection are from overseas so you can always get them as well. I have shared the links/avenues of purchase with Elgee and ADVedder so you can also try checking with them for leads.
Cars anyone can buy, more importantly is whether we find like-minded friends who shares our hobby. An achievement would be a SG/M'sia gathering/swap meet for Tomica fans.. now wouldn't that be something?
To this end, I would be very glad if everyone can take part and join in to collect nice nice Tomicas

Yahoo !!! Congrats loon on the V2 thread.
Percivale, I think I speak for many of us when I say that your collections are out of this world or even out of the reach of most of us here in Msia. We can only dream of getting our hands on those rare models in your collection. Anyway thanks for the poison. Keep em coming bro. At least your posts will give the rest of us something nice to dream about... sigh

yea... i agree with you, jart.. percivale's collections are very2 nice... have a look at his blog..
Here's another of the Otomodachi Series, I believe there are 8 to collect in this series. From what I can gather, it belongs to a product series created for kids and the word itself means friend. As adult collectors we become "big kids" or known as ooki na otomodachi hehe
