The Nissan Diesel Afrial (Aerial) Ladder Morita Fire Truck by Tomica with the real life Fire Truck

It's always cool to see the real model a diecast toy is based on. This is even more true for fire engines because they hold a special appeal to many people.

Tomica / Tomy firetrucks are very popular with collectors because of their attention to detail. It is no surprise then that these models end up being very collectible and high priced.

Here's are photos of the model and the real thing.

Sharing a few Choro-Qs aka Penny Racers

These small models are also favorites in the collector community.

Despite their diminutive size, the old, discontinued ones can cost a pretty penny nowadays. (pun intended)

These cute little toys are based on the illustrations of Yasuhiro Nakamura and the name Choro is actually an abbreviation of "cute" in Japanese.

The PGC10 is the 1st member of the line that would later on be called Godzilla. The KPGC10, like the current R35, was a giant among lesser automobiles and would quickly establish Nissan as a force to reckon with in both street legal sports cars and racing.

This Autoart model is quite hard to find nowadays and is a must have for collectors of Japanese supercars.

This Toyota Sprinter Trueno is from the Initial D Set  of Tomica. I have also included the rest of the cars in set.

These sets have long been discontinued and are now quite expensive not to mention, VERY HARD to find.

This is of course the gem:

These 5 other models are in the set too and their values have increased exponentially.

The one below is the Corolla Levin that is similar to the Trueno.

This one is the Mazda RX-7, the FD3S
