I have the Tomica twin pack FC3S & AE86 you posted. Really nice & bigger than normal Tomicas. That small Tomica AE86 is limited edition but doesn't have to tofu words?

Anyone got the Kyosho Mini Z series & Tomy Can Style RC (not the bootleg ver)? I only have AE86 & FD3S Tomy Can RC, missed the FC3S because I wanted to get the light up version, but couldn't find it... now it's so rare...

Also I believe there's the Choro Q RC version, and few box set of tomicas

i'm big fan initial d but i dun have any model of initial d
i only got initial d arcade hheheh

i am a huge fan of initial d
soon of later i will post my collections

What's the main difference between Fujimi & Aoshima? The Fujimi box looks nicer while Aoshima box looks cheap. but Aoshima also a famous model producer & I think it comes with an unpainted figure?

Didn't notice FD3S Spec 3 comes with slightly lighter Yellow. The finish look is painted or original stock?

hi.. the main difference is Aoshima does not tie with initial d license anymore.. but fujimi still strong with the merchandise.
the lighter yellow is paint finishes and not original body mold color.

nice one
are those REAL X series?

-and YES, the manga is going strong.. now waiting for VOL.38 chinese translation version to come out. japanese version released last year DEC 26.

^ yes real x it is
i hope hotworks will produce at least all the main characters car.
so far only ae86 and fd3s

What is X series?

I have 2 versions of the manga, the beginning parts were called Initial D OPTION, the cover's abit different from the official Initial D but it uses same yellow paper. I'm not sure if it's official from other country or bootleg, they were selling for expensive RM10 back then when Initial D just started.

Then the mid parts I got them from Kinokuniya. I know the chepaer version in Magazine shops are much cheaper but somehow I have problems reading comic in white papers. My eyes gets tired more easily and i don't like the reflections.

not X series but "Real X" series
real x is the manufacturer of the car models i posted.
those r the only models available though
btw white bonnet ae86 n yellow bonnet ek9 r not shown in the pic

Argh the picture made it look like it's big. I've seen this in Toycity. Quality isn't as good as Tomicas right?
