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.

Goupil, I love that Hot Wheels display on your dash! How are they stuck there?
Just some good old VHB double sided taped, stacked 3 or 4 layers :lol:

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.

Yeah I'd be a little worried about sharing parking with what looks like a Mig.

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. ;) Besides, it'll help your topcoat stick better.
