Takara Tomy has announced a new line of products in a collaboration between its adult-focused “Tomica” brand and the legendary street racing manga, Initial D.
The new collection is being released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the manga’s original serialization.
Initial D, created by Shuichi Shigeno, is a hugely influential series that had a massive impact on the global JDM car scene, telling the story of Takumi Fujiwara and his iconic Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86.
This new collaboration features four different products, including a new “Steering View” display concept and a light-up diorama.
The full product lineup is as follows:

- Price: ¥4,730
This set includes a die-cast model of Takumi Fujiwara’s AE86 and a buildable, miniature replica of the car’s dashboard, designed to create a “driver’s perspective” display.
The car features working pop-up headlights.
