The Toyota Probox is one of my all-time favorite castings...Being made by Tomy is a bonus. :lol:

ECO Vehicle - I've been hunting this version for a while...found it @ ToyEast

ToyEast Custom - Public Works Vehicle - the sign on the roof flips up to reveal an orange arrow to direct traffic. Very cool.

I also have the "stock" version of the public works vehicle - it does not have the black checkerboard print.

All told I have seven Proboxes.

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Nice casting! My favorites are the "Tomy" version and the public works version with the flip up sign. The Tomy version makes me wonder if Takara-Tomy actually uses some of these as company cars.

The Eco Drive model looks interesting. And everything on it is written in English, not Japanese which is a plus. Japanese isn't one of my strong points :lol:

I would not be surprised if they did. There's a version with "Tomy" written in red instead of blue, but it has eluded me thus far.

Thanks for the kudos Sir Crafty! I'm still practicing but have made great progress in a short amount of time. :thumbup:

And no, Japanese is not one of my strong points either, James. :D
