Now this was a big jaw-dropper: two videos of a Toyota Mark II Grande GX71 literally covered in Showa scale model cars. This must be the largest personal collection of scale model cars I’ve seen!

Now the list of cars, mainly from the late Showa-era, is going to be a lengthy one, but I’ll try to sum up the most important ones:
- Toyota Mark II Grande GX71 (duh)
- Toyota Soarer GZ10/MZ11/MZ12 (including the Shakotan Boogie Soarer twice)
- Numerous Toyota Celica XX GA61
- Toyota Celica GT RA45
- Toyota Corolla Levin TE27
- Toyota Corolla Levin TE71 four door sedan
- Toyota Corolla Levin AE86 hatchback
- Toyota Corsa AL11
- Numerous Nissan Skylines C10, C110, C210, R30
- Numerous Nissan Cedric/Gloria 230, 330, 430
- Numerous Nissan Fairlady S30
- Nissan EXA
- Hasemi Skyline KDR30 Super Silhouette kaido racer replica
- Nissan Silvia S110 Super Silhouette kaido racer replica
- Isuzu Bellet GT-R
- Mazda RX-3
And the list could go on for another 20 or 30 models that I overlooked…
