Hobby Japan Adds Two MF Ghost Toyota 86 GT Die-Cast Minicars
The two releases split the same car by race spec, and at a uniform 4,290 yen the pair asks MF Ghost collectors to buy the same chassis twice rather than pick one.
Reporting from 1 source: Dengeki Hobby Web.
Hobby Japan's 1/64 MF Ghost Series is taking orders for two Toyota 86 GT (ZN6) die-cast miniatures, both modeled on the car driven by Katagiri Kanata: the Odawara Pikes Peak spec and the Ashinoko GT spec, the latter with gold-outlined 86 decals and its own wheels. Each is 4,290 yen with tax, planned for release in May 2027 or later, sold through Post Hobby and model retailers.
Both cars share a die-cast zinc alloy and ABS body at 1/64 scale, and each ships with a dedicated base, a clear case, and a backboard printed with a battle scene from the series. The packaging measures about W120mm by D60mm by H50mm, and the models are display pieces with no moving parts or opening mechanism, aimed at ages 14 and up.
Hobby Japan plans and manufactures the line. The two models are distinguished mainly at the wheels and decals: the Ashinoko GT version carries the gold-outlined 86 marking and its own wheel design, while the Odawara Pikes Peak car reproduces that race's coloring and markings. Photos are of prototypes, and specifications may change.
- 1/64 Toyota 86 GT (ZN6) at Odawara Pikes Peak / MF Ghost Katagiri Kanata (HJ641088MFG): Reproduces the Odawara Pikes Peak coloring and markings
- 1/64 Toyota 86 GT (ZN6) at Ashinoko GT / MF Ghost Katagiri Kanata (HJ642088MFG): Gold-outlined 86 decal and dedicated wheels
