Well, to be quite fair, Tomica actually made it very accurate to the real car, unlike Hot Wheels, where they just used the same base as their normal cars but make the wheels rubber and just place a few stickers, Tomica actually put alot of effort into the car
While the Tomica has certain flaws that the Hot Wheels does better such as more tempos and details, it is however more accurate to the film. And again, it being much more cheaper (Around RM50, compared to the Hot Wheels being around 100+). And from the looks of it, I will be getting the Tomica one like the R34 by Tomica. Great to see another Manufacturer Comparison video 👏
Love the Tomica version. Didnt even bother to buy the Hot Wheels version because the premium version's hood tampos are not realistic, the wheels are also not movie accurate. The Tomica version costed me half of what the FnF 2 pack costs brand new in retail. For half of the price of the 2 pack, I am getting suspension, opening targa roof just like the movie car, small details like the NOS bottles and Amps in the trunk and in general, a much more movie accurate car.
Tbh , I kind of rather choose the cheaper ones because I don't live in Singapore. I live in Malaysia. Right now, 1 SGD is 3.45 times them RM which brings 1 SGD is 3.45 RM so that is why I prefer the cheaper supra
Despite the lack of details in the rear, I feel like Tomica still wins this category. The insides of the tail-lights are black and the exhaust is a single-pipe, just likke the movie car. The movie car also does not seem to have any logos other than the Toyota logo and the Toyota logo on the Hot Wheels car is too large and placed in an odd position. I must say tho, I wish Tomica included that plate
Scalpers in Indonesia don't care about the details, as long as it's fast and furious and it's a supra... then the price that has to be paid must be more than 3 times the purchase price. The estimated price is around 30 dollars 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yo bro, this is an AWESOME comparison with a new subject. Just as a suggestion, you should compare the MINI GT Bayside Blue R34 against the Tomica premium one! I dont know which to buy, but its alright if you dont do the vid. As always keep it up bro! 🔥🔥
HW are at its best built from 1996-2012 when they release the 1st edition series each year. The 1/64 built and workmanship standard dropped after that except for some exclusive ones. TM in the other hand prove to be many times better in its classic /basic version then HW and even more detailed in its premium version. Its worth to pay slightly more for TM for its details and adds on function. The packaging of TM is a value which can be displayed together with the car outside its box.
I’m gonna agree that Tomica is a better option to get than Hot Wheels in Asia and Western parts of America. However in Western Europe it’s close to impossible to try and get a Tomica car, even in diecast car specific stores. Hot Wheels on the other hand are everywhere and very quickly expending their export of Hot Wheels premium to Western Europe. Something that became recently available are 2 packs which aren’t rare in America. Scalpers are here too, however if you actually try your best instead of watching and ordering off of 1 specific site, you will find premiums. And lastly you have toy stores. They are a bit more expensive than diecast sellers, but at least 2 or 3 times a year they will have a good discount (Not because they sell bad, but because it’ll improve popularity and boost sales). So depending if you live in a particular part of the world, I wouldn’t say it’s smart to compare price and economics and just keep it with average sale price and the rest of the video about the detail and quality of the cars. If you like a product enough, you know what price you want to pay for it. Still a very nice video and maybe next video instead of a movie car you could do a car comparison on 2 of the same cars with the same livery used in real life?
The exhaust on the hotwheel supra is also wrong. The real one has one exhaust, but the hotwheel version has one twin exhaust, which is just inaccurate.
The tomica has the correct paint code I think. When I get mine I’m gonna put it under the filter they used in the first F&F movie and we will see. But I’m willing to take a punt and say that is house of kolor orange
Hotwheels hype are really crazy in my country People reselling their regular LBWK R35 and S15 for the price of 2 Hotwheels Premium Meanwhile for the regular Fast Furious series Supra, R34, S2000, Lancer, Silvia, Eclipse, were being sold for the price of 3-4 Hotwheels Premium And the Premium version of those 6 models I've mentioned above were sold for like 6-7 Hotwheels Premium Oh the same thing goes for the Tomica Premium Unlimited Veilside RX7 Fast Furious Series, it was also sold for the same price of 6-8 Hotwheels Premium Damn scalpers, messing with people's hobbies
This is a nice comparison however none of these is great as they both lack side mirrors. How hard is it for them to add such an important yet minor detail like that.
Side mirrors in small cars aren't really convenient, they bulge out when the car is sitting stopped hitting a wall beside of it, likes to get stuck on certain items, and may poke a hole through their boxes.
The Tomica one looks straight corny. I will say it has closer details to the F&F supra (which I care less about). I prefer the looks of the HW casting. Looks sleek.
In this case, Tomica. Hot wheels doesnt even have the right bodykit and casting wise ( cause they are TOO LAZY to innovate and just recycle same old bullshit)
Tomica is meant more for show while the Hotwheels is meant more for going on crazy tracks and smashing and bashing into stuff so detail isn't as much of a priority when it's meant to be more of a rough plaything.
I honestly don't think its fair to compare Hot Wheels/Matchbox to Tomica because Tomica isn't even sold in the U.S. whereas Hot Wheels is way more accessible. I can understand comparing Hot Wheels to Matchbox
