Turbo Nissan BluebirdTomy had at one time ventured into producing larger and more detailed models such as the
Tomica Dandy (pronounced dun-dee)
. They were normally 1/43 scale or larger and produced from the 1972 until 1993. They were all Japanese cars initially and foreign models were later added from 1977. The numbering system was also changed in 1984 based on the nature of the vehicles (e.g. emergency, police, Japan, foreign, etc).
The Limited S SeriesIn 2001, Tomy reissued six Tomica Dandy models in limited quantities. Tomica Dandy castings have also been used in gift sets and the
Tomica Limited S Series, but these models have the Dandy name on their base plates removed. Just like the Dandy Series, the Tomica Limited S Series had just 10 cars produced and for some reason Tomy did not continue with it, which in my opinion is quite a pity. The S Series are big, lovely and have more working car parts too. I have collected a few of them and here's one of my favourite

however the scale is different and would not be suited for regular Tomicas.
Anyway this is a very cool looking 15th Anniversary Special Models (rarely seen in the market today) containing three Pontiac Firebirds of Racing, Police and Normal Types:
