Anyone interested in the Transformer Z? I am going to Japan for business next month and I can bring some back. I will sell them here for my cost + shipping and paypal. I don't need to make a profit, just doing the forum members a favor. Let me know if you're interested and I can see what I can do, no promises but I'll do my best :)

I finally went out and picked up some models at Yodobashi in Yokohama...Got the Transformer Z, Tomica #55 1/57 scale, and the Playcast 1/32 scale.

I'm guessing the Playcast is a newer model...searched the forum and haven't seen any posts yet. It's got working lights...I'll post some pics of em all together later on. For now, pics I found of the Playcast.

BTW, JB1 what area of Japan do you visit for business??

Sagamihara, Kanagawa prefecture

Sweet, I live in Uraga, Kanagawa prefecture. I'm about an hour drive from Sagamihara.:driving: You should try to "schedule" a business trip out here around the next Tokyo Auto Salon...its not too far from Sagamihara. :happydance:

Hey brother, if you could pick me up a 1/18 scale, or even a transformer, i'll pay the cost/shipping + interest, I just want one, Red preferably.

Was interested, too, so decided to do a search on just what the deal was and it looks like the 370Z (transformer) only comes in "silver" (if I read this right):

I picked up one last night that is black...they only had two. I didn't see any other colors.

I'd LOVE to get my hands on that 1/32 Playcast model. Wondering if anyone cares to work out a deal... :bowdown:

Oh, and for the record, I'm SO tired of looking for the new Hot Wheels 370Z :eek: AND, to top it off, I think (hope not) it's yellow. But I haven't been able to find it.

Odds are the yellow "hot wheels" model your seeing is a Japanese Tomica model...I'll PM you Slynky.

I just want a mini 370, dont care what it is, could one of you outstanding chaps in japan hook a brother up? like i said, i'll pay shipping + interest for going out of your way!

RED,

There are some on ebay! Fair price too. They are 260 Yen here = about $3

tomica fairlady 55, Toys Hobbies. Great deals on eBay!

Oh wow! thanks bud!

Yeah, that would be nice! When is the next Auto salon? Last year I just missed out on the Tokyo Auto Show, I had to fly back just a few days before the show started :mad:

I have seen them in Black and Dark gray or in Nissan speak: Platinum Graphite. I;ll do my best to get a few of each.
