 Japanese die-cast toys

Japanese die-cast toys refer to miniature vehicles, often cars, trucks, and aircraft, made from a metal alloy using a die-casting process. This method involves pouring molten metal into a mold to create detailed and durable toys. Japan has a rich history in the production of die-cast toys, with companies such as Tomica, Matchbox (originally a British brand but popular in Japan), and Hot Wheels (an American brand that also produces in Japan) leading the way.
