I've gotten myself the Tomica version, and it is a treat! Yes, the price range is a bit expensive, but comparing to find the R34 Hotwheels for a good price or while hunting is very rare. People are reselling the R34 for prices upwards of RM100, quite hard to find a cheap one. Plus, Tomica nailed the looks of the bodykit and wheels, so that's a win. But still Hotwheels did a better job on the paint.
I feel like for the money of both of these for a single 1/64 car, we collectors deserve another diecast option that would get it right. I appreciate all your hard work and that you mentioned how much time and effort you put in to this puts it into perspective. To add to the Tomica attention to detail you pointed out with the tow hook on the front, it looks more like a tow ball for a tow hitch package that belongs on the back of a car, more likely to see on a truck or suv hauling a trailer. Learned a ton about Tomica that only recently received my 1st few diecasts as I mentioned in a previous chat to checkout myself. Keep up the good work!
With the release of this fantastic version of the 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline, you ought to do a comparison of Dom's '69 Dodge Charger R/T from the same Tomica Premium Unlimited line against other versions.
Got myself the Tomica version just last week and I gotta say it looks awesome. Sure I would also want the Hot Wheels version too but here in Singapore good luck on getting that. Besides the Tomica version sold out quickly so it was a good thing I bought it before that happened.
Not sure if you notice this but aside from the correct interior design, the tomica version also got the correct bodykit (which you haven't mentioned in your review.) The only thing hot wheels got it correctly was the stripes and the decals. Those stripes was really supposed to look fading on the front end.
Just the fact that the Tomica version has the proper body kit and a more accurate wing makes me prefer it over the Hot Wheels version. Could just swap the wheels and add water slides for the plate and sponsors, repaint the headlights and it'll be perfect
In my opinion I think Tomica set it apart with the body kit opening doors and interior. The price isn’t bad at all for that close to detail. Hot wheels looks good but it’s just a different skyline with the same paint job.
The slight ridges on the Tomica tires make it perfect for die-cast racing. Rubber tires feel nice, but drain speed if you are racing the cars. I think Tomica built this so that it could attempt to dethrone Hot Wheels as fast racers.
Love the review - you go into great detail with your research. Gotta be the Tomica for me, I don't like the eyes fron lights but the interior 3 cylinders...damn. Best detail in Tomica.
Great comparison!!! Turns out that the hot wheels one is more expensive now unfortunately so I decided to go with Tomica's diecast. Helped me a lot! ❤❤❤
yes, the bodykit is the keypoint for the comparison between this two. To those who doesn't notice it yet, Brian's skyline is using a C-West bodykit and GT wing, while Skyline R34 by HW is a Nismo bodykit version, which is why the Hot wheels version is not accurate in terms of bodykit type that they are using. But price still skyrocketing in the reseller market, lol. As per the date of my comment here, only two brand that produce Brian Skyline R34 with correct bodykit, Tomica and another one is the old (might be extinct already) ERCL / Racing Champions brand.
4:11 The spoiler on the actual car is blue. As can be seen in some shots from the movie as well. Even the image you showed there of the real car is of a blue spoiler. Tomica got it right.
The only thing missing on Tomica Unlimited version of the 2 Fast and 2 Furious Skyline is the lack of detail on decals which is a greddy, west, sparco, etc decals on hood if they want to make it accurate of the movie car, maybe because of license issue just like the Hot Wheels Nissan Skyline R30 Super Silhoulette where Matel can't put the Tomica decals on there product because it's Tomica. But in any case i think Tomica mostly nailed it in tems of accuracy because of the Body kits which is the actual Velside body kits and th enkie wheels rather than Reskin of Skyline like the Hot Wheels always do all there Fast and Furious Skiline is just reskin not doing something more attention to detail when it comes to actual bodykits and wheels. (Edit: Correction the bodykit was C-West)
I've also noticed that the dimensions of the Tomica casting have been improved for the TPU version. Some of these little changes I've noticed are the rear bumper and taillights being a bit smaller as well as the front bumper being more pronounced.
However i think the opening door is unecesary for me which is basically add more on the tooling cost while also make it not so right when it came for quality but maybe that's a signiture on Tomica where all there toys have opening doors or hood. It's very difficult to make a 1:64 scale so accurate with a opening door and hood in terms of manufacturing. Without the door opening would make the Cars quality even better and easier to make like per exsample the Tarmac Works it dosen't have complicated door opening but the attention to detail and quality is just perfect. That's why there's base line model is far more expensive than Hot wheels Base line model like it cost php 200.00 to Php 300.00 vs Hot wheels Php 120.00
I think the compromise in quality for the implementation of opening doors isn't that bad, if at all in my opinion. If anything, it makes the interior more easily appreciable.
If I picked without knowing first, I'd be biased for Hot Wheels, since where I live, there are almost no Tomica available. The ones that are available are standard models, specifically Burger truck, food truck, overtly pink Jeep, blue boring Nissan, and maybe one or two cars that are neither of those. Yeah, where I live in America, Tomica doesn't really exist. Great comparison though!
I would say in this one Tomica be the one I'll pick as the HotWheels yes might have small details extra but is all put on a R34 Z-tune casting hence the hood and kit not matching the one in the movie. seems to be a thing with most of the non-premium cars from HW that they would re-use casting over and over with no modification
I think overall I have to give it to the hot wheels ,I know its not accurate but I prefer the fading stripes the hot wheels has more details of decals and the better texture but I do give Tomica credit for Suspension and opening doors.
After look at your ig story telling it's hard to edit the vid i 'Come brother' and look at the vid...wow ic why it is hard when someone keep asking to make a new vid and it is tired actually..respect broo
You are actually wrong about the stripes. They do fade to the front on the original car, but maybe not as much as the hot wheels model.

i would have to take the Hot-Wheels one over the tomica, but damn i love the interior of the tomica one. i love defintely love the new editing drifter, just makes the video fell so much more quality!. keep it up drifter🙌💯
I think the spoiler on the tomica version ruins the look of the car which is weird cause it had the right body kit, the hot wheels bonnet/hood is the z tune hood which I personally like, I know it’s not accurate but it looks bad ass and the wheels on the hot wheels look way better
its about the accuracy, its not about what logo on the back it has. the car in the movie didnt have a gtr logo on the back. they both failed with livery because both has problems. i dare say tomica is more accurate with the movie looks. deal with it.
if you appreciate cool interior with nos at the passenger seat pick tomica no questions asked. but if you care abt details then hot wheels is the better choice.
I think, hot wheels just re-using its r34 z-tune. Cause the hood, the front n rear bumper, is from skyline z-tune. While tomica stay true too the source, molding it like its c-west body kit.
Looks like most of the people that are complaining about HW are over seas. I’m in the US and finding them for retail $5-$6 (premium) in stores are a blessing.
The Tomica version has some great details and quality, but the Hot Wheels version displays so much better. The Tomica looks a little awkward to me. Plus, I got the Hot wheels one for $5.00, so they win this comparison for me.

Tomica has the proper Cwest body kit and rims, however, Hot Wheels has the proper Livery down and the extra sponsors.
Yeah right tomica solos
@@Slowbaru89 not really
@@askerleaves1614is it because of the price? A lil expensive tho lol
@@Slowbaru89 that and they have their own problems I'm not just going to disregard those and think they're just Crystal perfect
they need to make a baby to create the perfect skyline 😶

When I was younger if I got a tomicw from you you would be my favorite person for quite a while

I watched your video, it was worth the time. Really cool , my friend big like and support
I'm not a collector of these things but I enjoyed your video, man. Now I know a bit more about these things. Thanks!
Great comparison of both cars
Thank you! :)
I collect tomica premium, awesome diecast and all my favorite cars are represented
Hi love your videos
Great job D! Love your comparisons. I personally like the HW more

Maybe that explains the price on the tomica.. the retool must not have been cheap 🤔

the tomica has the C-West body kit not Veilside
Geest job of both 👍❤️💪
The lines do fade out in the movie
Cool video brother
Hot wheels version is definitely a winner. Just look at the proportions, they are so sexy ))
Tbh, I would say its a fair tie
If I picked without knowing first, I'd be biased for Hot Wheels, since where I live, there are almost no Tomica available.

1:38 that ball is the water spray nozzle for the intercooler.
This cool video mister drifter D
I really need to know where you collect your hot wheels in Singapore?
She Love Cars, D’Hive, Toy Space and Dailydiecastsg!
I would say in this one Tomica be the one I'll pick as the HotWheels yes might have small details extra but is all put on a R34 Z-tune casting hence the hood and kit not matching the one in the movie.

Love ur vids
Good job.
I think overall I have to give it to the hot wheels ,I know its not accurate but I prefer the fading stripes the hot wheels has more details of decals and the better texture but I do give Tomica credit for Suspension and opening doors.
The choice really depends on you
If you love accuracy then the tomica is your choice
Then if you love details then hotwheels
After look at your ig story telling it's hard to edit the vid i 'Come brother' and look at the vid...wow ic why it is hard when someone keep asking to make a new vid and it is tired actually..respect broo
Im happy to hear my hard work paid off. Thanks for the comment bro!
I prefer hotwheel cuz the texture and colour is amazing
my childhood was made of hotwheels so i vote on that
South Africa 🇿🇦 love
Love from Singapore! :)
Hot Wheels is missing the entire body kit
Just started collecting die cast about 2 months ago. I cant wait to find a fast and furious diecast.
Welcome to the hobby fam!
Bro, this vídeo is amazing, gonna try to find out this Tomica. I Just sold my Hot Wheels fast and Furious Skyline GT-R.
Moving on to the hood of the car...
Thanks dude ;)
Hotwheels has a metal base? Cool! That was a feature on the originals though.
You are actually wrong about the stripes. They do fade to the front on the original car, but maybe not as much as the hot wheels model.
Later edit: Tomica's car has the correct body, including the details on the back. The Hot Wheels car is inspired by a replica of the 2F2F car, but with a different body kit.
i agree about the stripes
I also have these two.
The Tomica version looks like "We have Fast and the Furious at home".
I got the Nissan skyline gtr different version made in Indonesia and the rims were black and the base was also different
How much is the hw nissan worth now?
Where do you buy your car cases/boxes to keep your cars?
Wow in my opinion i like hot wheels
The 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R is a major car driven by Brian O'Conner in 2 Fast 2 Furious.
Engine: 2.6L RB26DETT twin turbo l6
Body Mods: C-West/Motorex/Sunline Racing b...
Wheels: HRE 446
Body Style: 2-door coupe like for more car specs
Its been a long time without you my friend and I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
I like Tomica one
i would have to take the Hot-Wheels one over the tomica, but damn i love the interior of the tomica one. i love defintely love the new editing drifter, just makes the video fell so much more quality!. keep it up drifter🙌💯
It was really exhausting, and comments like yours make my day. Thank you bro :)
@@DrifterD no problem bro, been watching since 2017!😁💯
Hotwheel looks like a metal car, Tomica looks like a plastic transformers.
Got them in Hotwheels but the Tomica is nice🤠👍
Nice video
I think the spoiler on the tomica version ruins the look of the car which is weird cause it had the right body kit, the hot wheels bonnet/hood is the z tune hood which I personally like, I know it’s not accurate but it looks bad ass and the wheels on the hot wheels look way better
could be the lighting but I think prefer the hot wheels version since the grey color looks more proper, the tomica ver looks a bit more white
The Tomica one comes closer to the actual paintjob, though the metallic finish on the hot wheels is gorgeous!
02:20 it is called bonnet air scoop
its about the accuracy, its not about what logo on the back it has. the car in the movie didnt have a gtr logo on the back. they both failed with livery because both has problems. i dare say tomica is more accurate with the movie looks. deal with it.
btw, its basically a collectors item, so its tyres and stuff like suspension isnt important.
tomica is much detailed and cool
and hot wheels is slick and aggressive style
I went with the hotwheels
How do you get your back board thing for the hot wheel packs looks so clean?
i might have to go to tomica man i mean it has suspension and Opening doors didn't even knew tomica open doors
Thehood on the hot wheels is the real one in fast and furious
That Hotwheels one retail is $10, but now it’s like 90-100
i just need the body-kit tbh. if hot wheels release R34 with C-West body-kit i totally buy it
5 min and I just realized I’m watching a hot wheels review
In Louisiana hot wheels premium is only 4$
Tomica Did amazing with the bodykit, tho I'm still not a fan tomica because of prices of some cars, hw takes the win
Tomica more accurate. Hot wheels looks better imho 😊
here in indonesia, the hot wheels r34 fast imports sold at almost 45 dollars right now, you will never find this one at 10 dollars
if you appreciate cool interior with nos at the passenger seat pick tomica no questions asked.
but if you care abt details then hot wheels is the better choice.
It's because of premium It's more expensive because of premium
The tomica version looks so cool tomica make a lot of detailed cars
Accuracy - tomica
realism - hotwheels

stickers - hotwheels
chrome - hotwheels

overall:
hotwheels : 5 / tomica : 5
tomica on the bodykit and accuracy / hotwheels on the sponsors and realism
I WANT THIS
Bro skyline r34 is my dream car
Tomica has more specific cars that are less common. Idk about detail tho.
I think, hot wheels just re-using its r34 z-tune. Cause the hood, the front n rear bumper, is from skyline z-tune. While tomica stay true too the source, molding it like its c-west body kit.
Looks like most of the people that are complaining about HW are over seas. I’m in the US and finding them for retail $5-$6 (premium) in stores are a blessing.
It is! Hahaha
Hotwheels 300JPY
Tomica 390JPY
Hotwheels premium 700JPY
Tomica premium 750JPY
Stores limited Tomica 825JPY
Tomica premium unlimited 1100JPY
at Toys'R'Us in Japan
Which is faster tho ? Can you race them to find out?
Where did u buy the hotwheels premium?
Im been looking for it for so long prices r 60+ on shoppee 😢
Amazing cumperesiom video 👍👍
In Indonesia Hot Wheels Nissan skyline r34 very expensive, not for sale in market too
The Tomica version has some great details and quality, but the Hot Wheels version displays so much better. The Tomica looks a little awkward to me. Plus, I got the Hot wheels one for $5.00, so they win this comparison for me.
Tomica:Im looking cute
Hotwheels:Im looking cool
