Tomica - Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X British Police Car
I have several Mitsubishi Fuso Canter truck and basically that's all I have on Mitsubishi brand and now finally I got popular 4 wheel drive sports car from Mitsubishi - the wonderful Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X or simply "Evo X" (Evo 10).
This is a die-cast scale car model of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Birtish Police Type produced by Takara Tomy under their popular toy series called Tomica.
Let's have a look at this Evo 10 in the British Police uniform;
The casting and painting job finishing is as good as what you could expect from Tomica, I have no complain on that. This car also comes with openable front doors feature and the usual "suspension" gimmick;
The exterior detailing in accordance to the actual South Yorkshire Police Car is quite impressive;
You can see the real pictures of this car from the links below;

Overall, this is a very good representation of the relevant police car at this scale and price points. Tomica did a great job on the casting, painting and detailing works just like they always did for the Japanese cars scale model they have produced over the years.
I guess, maybe next time I should try and get the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X in red color to compliment this particular car.

uhmmmm... your Tomica collection is growing fast !!!... the fact that this diecast has suspension (and openable doors) draw my attention, since is not so usual, only Majorette has such feature(s) and that makes me wonder if maybe there is/was a sort of relationship between these two brands... i like it as a police car, and the whole work is very good, also the Evo is one of my favorite asian sport/muscle cars and the city versions of this vehicle are available in the dealers of my hometown... =)
