1:64 Countach and Subaru Impreza from Tomica's Premium range

Tomica is Japan's biggest contributor to ensuring kids grow up loving cars. They've been making 1:64ish model cars for kids for almost hundreds of years now. They have been doing it almost that long now; long enough to make it a traditional toy. For those grown up, Tomica offers the upgraded casting for the Premium line. These have mostly proper proportions, accurate decals and most importantly those correct wheels.

We have the Countach and the Subaru today. The Walter Wolfe version of the Countach is done in the right shade of blue with perfect five slot Lambo wheels, narrow up front and wide at the rear.  The Subaru on the other hand comes with all the right stuff albeit for the oddly rubber spoiler at the back. It also appears just a tad wider than it should be. Despite that, these look brilliant and usually cost within 600tk-1200tk depending where you buy them. Get from Japan, price is lowest. Buy anywhere else, 900-1200tk is a decent deal for these.

Cons: Don't roll them. The wheels will make a clackety-clack sound like a train. The wheels have small slot for holding the differently designed rims, and these cause that sound.
