Tomica
has been a leader in innovation since it opened its doors for business
in 1970. One of the highlights of Tomica die-cast models is the Dream
Tomica Series, which are models inspired by popular children’s
characters.
Tomica signed an agreement with Toyota in 2012 to create die-cast model cars that would resemble Pokemon and other characters in the game. The result was presented in the 2012 Tokyo International Toy Show held in the nation’s capital. There were three Pokemon models presented with a scale of 1:64, and they were titled: Tomica Pokemon.
The three Toyota models used for this series were the Alphard (showing a Pokemon mural) and two Toyota Porte models for Oshawott and Pikachu. Eventually other characters were represented in the Tomica Pokemon line like the Prasel car, Minun car, Naetle car, Hikozaru, and Pochama car.
All Tomica Pokemon models had designs that made the car model look like the character, such as the yellow Pikachu car with stylized hubcaps, long ears, and a mouth and cheeks on the front bumper.
The Tomica Transformers set is another thrilling part of the Dream
Tomica Series. Number 142 is Bumblebee based off the 2008 Camaro, while
#147 is Optimus Prime. While these models are not designed to
mechanically transform, they are a good investment as their prices
continue to rise, just as with the Batmobiles.
