Preserve New Takara Tomica Toy Cars With Thirsty Hippo!

Tomica Evolution X, VI and Honda Civic Type R Toy Cars. These cars are always in demand especially with the speed maniacs. Hey if you are a family man that requires a sporty ride and yet provide enough room for your family, Evo is the way to go.

In the Tomica world, these are also popular models. I have asked around the large chain stores and Tomica Speciality Stores and feedback was the EVOs are fast running out! Collect yours now...

This especially true for Tomica Honda Civic Type R and Initial D AE86, these cars are in so high demand that in some markets, there are literary none left (Large Chain Stores, Hobby Shops). Some of these cars fetch a whooping 400% increased in price from the original price.

I am convinced that high demand collector cars will go up in value after a while just like antique items. So how to keep them in mint condition ?

My 2 collector mates said to use Thirsty Hippo which will suck up the moisture from air and will assist in keeping the cars in their original condition.

This is what I am doing,

1) Wax the cars with Turtle WAX. Use only micro fibre cloth. Once they are shinning and up to your standard.......

2) Place them in their original box. Bubble wrap them for extra protection.

3) Seal them up in a box with thirsty hippo!

4) Of course I have also models displayed in my Ikea Billy Bookcase and not everything in the sealed box. I need to use up the 2nd book shelf at the rate the cars are coming in...
