I've mentioned the Japanese Tomy Tech Car and Truck and Bus Collections before. Since I just got a shipment notice for the Bus Collection #11, thought I'd post links of items that are in stock or about to be in stock or almost arriving pre-orders for a number of these vehicles.

These items usually sell out rather quickly. Both companies that I list are companies that I've ordered from before with good results. This is most likely the cheapest way to get them although Plaza Japan through eBay may carry the items also.

Hobby Link Japan is the hlj links. They take pre-orders on items, will ask for payment at time of shipment.
Hobby Search Japan is the 1999.co links. They will take pre-orders on items, automatically shipping when the item arrives. After the pre-order but before the actual arrival of items, they have an email signup list. You get notice when the item actually is in stock and have a chance to buy the (usually few) extra items in the shipment. So act quickly on their in stock email notices.

Cars come in 12 boxes of 3 vehicles each, except for the newest, Collection #5 which just has 12 'utility vehicles' instead of 3 cars in each box. The Bus and Truck collections have 10 items in the box.

The following are in 'Japanese N-scale' or 1:150

Nice links there. It's quite difficult to find non muscle cars  for your modern N Scale layout. Thanks for sharing

   I have ordered items,Japanese Animation "Anime",Si Fi,and aircraft models from Hobby Link Japan for about seven years now ,but I never thought to look for N Scale Vehicles from them before,but I did find some nice little Plastic almost T Gauge size trains that were operational that I considered ordering, but never did.

Some of them are even larger than 1:150. Personally that's just too big for my preferences.

No the steering wheel is on the right side.

Not on the left either...:)

of course the buses having the door on the wrong side could puzzle the N scale peeps waiting at the bus stop ...  ;)

Should have updated above when I actually got the box of vehicle collection #5 but didn't. It should read that there are 2 vehicles per box for a total of 24 vehicles unlike the earlier collections which had 3 cars per box for a total of 36.

And I will take pictures of them all this week, I promise  ::)
