Hot Kustoms Walk-Thru: Tomica Limited Vintage Toyota Crown Wagons

Yes we all love the Datsun / Nissan wagons but let’s not forget about Toyota. Tomica Limited Vintage (TLV) has faithfully produced these beautiful crown wagons in 1/64 glory true to its 1/1 counterpart. I’m looking forward to the Osaka Prefectural Crown Van Police which has just released as well.

For now let’s do a short review for the ’73 Crown Van which were released on Jan. As usual they came in a pair with nostalgic lime green similar color to my fridge in the early 80s and light gunmetal gray color in my term. As usual the TLV packaging box is consistent through out with no updates to the packaging design unlike the Tomica Premium series.



For wagons mini cars collectors these pair is a god send. Intricate details, trimmings as well as realistic wheelsets true to the promise by TLV. At a recommended retail price of approx 2500 JPY (23 USD) the price tag is worth every penny. Of course throughout the years TLV has released several of these Toyota Crown wagons castings which I will walk through them in my video except for the latest release. 

The castings featured are:
• Toyota Crown Van Deluxe (1973) Green
• Toyota Crown Van Deluxe (1973) Light Gunmetal Gray
• Toyota Crown Van Deluxe (Taiyo vol. 5) Light Blue.
• Toyota Crown Wagon Pearl Blue
• Toyota Crown Wagon Pearl Blue
• Toyopet Crown Ambulance (5th Year Anniversary Edition)

• Toyopet Crown Osaka Police
