Vintage stuff I bought yesterday in Japan

I went toy shopping and bagged a few neat stuff of course :)  Thank you Japan for all the immense joy you give me every time I shop for old toys.  Thanks also to collectors like us who take care of these toys and give us newbies to appreciate the  toys from the past.  They don't make em like they used to.

 ICHIKO friction Patrol car in 16 scale, Mint in box with a good grade complete box.






This is a brass 1970's 280Z cigar holder.  When yo buy the real car in the 70's, you get a replica like this to put on your table.  This is the original DEALER SPECIAL back then.

Of course, my new Lesneys.










Thanks for all the views, comments are always appreciated.

Salamat Po!  ( Thank You)
