Tomica series

Tomica is not one line but several. The regular numbered line is what most people mean by "Tomica", but the collector lines — Premium, Limited Vintage and Reborn — use completely different numbering and pricing.

Tomica Regular (No. 1 – No. 120)

The main Tomica line. Around 120 numbers are active at any time, and Takara Tomy swaps the vehicle behind a number every few years. Most models have working suspension and opening parts.

Price in Japan594 yen (tax included) for most standard models
ScaleRoughly 1/55 to 1/70 depending on the vehicle

Tomica Limited Vintage (TLV / LV-N)

Tomica Limited Vintage (TLV) is the 1/64 collector line for people who grew up with Tomica and now want museum-grade replicas. Every casting recreates a real Japanese car from the 1950s to the 1990s with period-correct details: separate indicators, accurate badges, era-correct colours and even licence plates. Regular Tomica fits in your pocket; TLV sits in a display case. Models are numbered LV-N (standard cars), LV-V (vans) and LV-Ne (Neo, post-1990 cars), and are sold mainly through hobby shops and Tomica shops rather than supermarkets.

Price in JapanPremium collector pricing (typically 1,500 – 3,000 yen)

Tomica Black Box (黒箱 gift sets)

"Black Box" Tomica (黒箱, kurobako) is the collector nickname for Tomica gift sets sold in distinctive black packaging — anniversary sets, Tokyo Toy Show exclusives and store-limited boxes. Each box bundles several models, often with tampos, liveries or castings you cannot buy separately, which is why sealed black boxes are a lively second-hand market of their own. If you are hunting a specific black box set, check the release month pages for the models inside it.

Price in JapanSet pricing, usually higher than buying the cars individually
