FJ25 Toy
I had to call in my wife and daughter to make sure I didn't spend $199 on a Matchbox size toy. Figured I'd contact him after the end if Landpimp didn't snipe it. Very neat though:
FJ25 1/40 Toy

I take it you haven't been to the BIG E in Mass then? They have a kiddie ride that goes around on a track with, you guessed it, FJ25's. I always forget to bring my digital camera when I go there :(

If it was a LHD and had the factory doors and bows I be interested besides that the wheels don't look stock.

And, I bet the brakes don't work either.

Hmmmm, with a box, now that's a deal. 
I like his other auction for an empty FJ40 box for $59.99.
Check out the wheels though:

Here we go again, $75 with five hours to go! I'm out.
Besides, it needs body and paint work: Asahi 25

23 bids with eight different bidders. I really surprised for all the body and paint work needed. Where are you going to find the right clear turn signal/parking light lenses to replace the later amber ones that are on there now. I don't think there is enough of a market to get Mike (Foxfab) to make reproductions.

Oh, well. Maybe next time. I really wanted to start a Asahi Pet restoration project thread. Maybe at that scale I could actually finish one.

That's a pretty nice one.............but we all know how hard to get those original tires are.
