Those Toyota vans are hot!
If you are trying to collect them all, don't forget the fast wagon series cream yellow T5R replica. They are rarer and pricier, but worth it in order to have the full set.

We have multiples of all of them, I think, between me and my oldest.
I also painted up a mini version of my wife's car for her.

Fine work, Chuck.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Yeah I'd be a little worried about sharing parking with what looks like a Mig.
Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.

That paint job looks great! I do plan to buy every copy I see in stores for $1.20 each. That will allow me to paint them other stock colors. I even considered buying the tiny touch up paint kits from FCP in the factory colors so they'd be an authentic match. Regal Red, Sonic Blue, Nautic Blue, Saffron! I should have bought all those yellows last year because that light color may have been a good base coat.

Use a good enough primer coat, you won't need to worry.FireFox31 wrote: 11 Dec 2022, 22:30 I should have bought all those yellows last year because that light color may have been a good base coat.

Look what Santa brought me!! A Hot Wheels green 850! I still have to find a black one and a 240 before the 2022 product is all gone from the stores.
