This is probably the 20th Nissan GT-R R35 Tomica Limited Vintage (TLV) has released but so far the second exclusive car. The first was 2017 Nismo GT-R TakaraTomy Mall web exclusive specially for the TLV version. The current one is the LOG-ON store exclusive which was announced by Tomica Hong Kong Fan page last month with pre-sale the LOG-ON page which was suprisingly sold out the day before the actual sales that we have to get from resellers.
It is interesting that TakaraTomy has weighted on much on the Hong Kong market recently. There are a huge fanbase for Tomica products over in Hong Kong which maybe 2nd or on par with Japan domestic market. In recent years we have seen Tomica H.K Aeon exclusive releases and the popular white Lamborghini Veneno Roadster which is a purchase with purchase exclusive in several Asian countries but not in Japan till date.
The TLV LOG-ON comes with a premium packaging with additional silver foil stamp on the standard box and bio card. I personally do not like the cumbersome square box that come with it as it takes up a lot of space. The GT-R that comes along with it is actually also the same as the 2017 Nismo Web exclusive last year with a silver paint on body whereas the latter is gunmetal.
The highlight is actually the metallic card that comes with it. It is a brush metal surface with beautiful grill design printed with silver ink for the GT-R, LOG-ON & TomyTec logo. It comes with the option of engraving your initials on the card as well which mine with “Hot Kustoms” will be arriving soon.
