Tomica MF Ghost / Honda CIVIC TYPE R

 

 

As an Initial D fan, I had to get the models involved in its sequel, MF GHOST. There are currently three models in the SP line and this is one of them. I do not know much about the new series except that the main character is the student of the main character in the older series. The box gives the illustration of the driver of this car.

The Honda CIVIC TYPE-R is a repaint of the Tomica 50th Anniversary version. I think it still has the same casting details such as the back spoiler and the plastic front lights. The back spoiler is still made of plastic and proves to be the same casting as the anniversary release.

The sides have some paint designs like the front and back lights, the red border on the base, and the borders on the windows. The windows are made of translucent plastic giving off a tinted effect. The largest paint design is on the door, the racer number 13. The character driver of this car may have his reasons on choosing the number or may be randomly given prior to the tournament in the manga.

 

The top of the car has casting details like the triangle shape on the front hood that is most likely the spoiler, antenna on the roof, and the plastic spoiler. The plastic spoiler has black paint except on its side.

The back has more paint designs like on the lights, vents, wing, and base. The details on the vents have a mesh pattern to make it look realistic. The base does have casting details for the exhausts.

The front is setup like the back when it comes to paint designs. It has painted vents, grille, and base. The mesh patterns are also present on the vents to make it realistic and those make the car look good. The badge in the center is accurate like the real car. Like I said at the beginning of the post, the front has plastic inserts for the lights and they look great in this model.

The cars in the MF GHOST manga is more modern because it uses newer cars like the Honda CIVIC TYPE R compared to its predecessor. Once I get more information about the MF GHOST series, I will update this post and have it make a cameo appearance in future posts.
