Guys,

I'm wanting to talk about the Tomica Speed Racer cars. Namely these:

and

http://wwwmwww.com/Speed/Tomy/Tomy2.jpg

and any others I'm unaware of. I see some other Tomica threads here in the European Diecast section but I'm wondering if this is the correct location. Tomica is in Japan which last I checked wasn't part of Europe. Should there be a Tomica section under Die Cast as there is for Johnny Lightning, Hot Wheels, Jada, etc? I just want to make sure I'm starting up this thread in the appropriate location. If I want to suggest the creation of a new section how do I do that?

Thanks,
Carl

Aren't Tomicas also distributed through Europe? That would make it perfectly acceptable.... I wish they were still offered over here in the US.

I'm not sure to be honest. I'm pretty sure they are made in Japan and as I get most of my stuff off the internet it doesn't matter too much to me where it is distributed. There are plenty of places willing to ship Tomica products to the US.

We've "adopted" some brands in this part of forum that are not European, but somehow suit very well here. We love to talk anything from Corgi, Norev, Aoshima, Kyosho, etc... and of course Tomica too. I guess this section is dedicated to everything that is 1/64 and is from non-US makers.

So, I think it's perfect to discuss Tomicas and Tomys here. :thumbsup:
