James Bond Aston Martin DB5 by Husky of Great Britain

I am always on the lookout for a cool vintage die-cast.   I seldom buy die-cast toys in Manila because the stuff I want are not available locally. 

I always scour the vintage stores in Japan and hope to find some treasures.  It might seem crazy but I always open the drawers of old cabinets in re-use stores in Tokyo and hoping to bag some die-cast.   I've been lucky twice with those magical drawers and the owners usually give it for a song.   

This beautiful and very rare Aston Martin DB5 by HUSKY was sourced locally in Manila.  I've been on the lookout for this item  but I know that this item would be very hard to find.  I do check EBAY once in a while and I get astounded every time I see this price on this Aston Martin.  A whooping $300!  I know this might be a rip off but getting this for a mere $5 for a loose and near mint condition will do.   I even got a gift from JDMike, an Aston Martin by Corgi.

Looks like Manila is gonna be hot for some vintage hunting.   It's open season now!
