Product Description
──Tomica 55th Anniversary Item: Bonnet-type ambulance made into a TLV!
Converting a former ambulance into a TLV
Tomica 55th Anniversary Merchandise
A popular emergency vehicle from the Showa era
Before today's minivans became popular, ambulances were generally wagon-shaped bodies based on passenger cars. The Toyota ambulance in particular retained the image of the Crown passenger car, but the body size was significantly enlarged to ensure the space necessary for emergency activities, and the vehicle's power performance was also improved by installing a 6-cylinder 3900cc engine for large vehicles.
The Toyota ambulance, with its bonnet-type (also called the Metropolitan type depending on the era) that evokes the image of the Crown, had been produced in three generations by around 1971, and all of them had an appealing, flowing style that made the most of the large body size. In particular, the final model, the FS55V, was well-known and was a long-selling product for about 20 years as a Tomica product.
As part of the 55th anniversary project of Tomica, Toyota Ambulance FS55V will be released as a TLV product. TLV has previously released the 50 series Crown sedan, hardtop, and van, and it is only because of the unified 1/64 scale TLV that you can feel the difference in the size and design of the ambulance on the model.
This time, we have recreated the specifications of an existing vehicle that was recently restored, and have done our best to recreate the interior as seen through the small window. It will be enjoyed by a wide range of fans, including those who have fond memories of playing with Tomica cars, those who like emergency vehicles, and those who like the Showa era.
