Is it certain that Tire Talky is coming out as a die-cast? I love this guy and the only thing preventing me from getting him is that he is so plasticky. I also pine for a re-issue of Security Finn. I love all the Japanese characters….my wife and I got to travel to Japan with my old job and it is out favorite place to travel to. So whenever I see a Japanese car character, out is easy to convince my wife why we need too buy it!

Oh man, I'm thrilled! Thanks for the info Bumper Save and Fillmore1234!

I am grateful for all the stuff I'm learning here on the forums. Wish I had joined when I started looking 3 months ago, would have definitely saved some money, gas, time, psychic energy and foolishness. I've passed a number of cars up in-store that I came back and realized were hard to find. Of course, when I went back it was long gone off the peg.
