I have a shoe box containing Tomica cars, but I don't use them that much. I don't consider myself as a collector who keeps everything away from usage, but I don't also consider myself as someone who would play with these everyday. However I have the urge to put my Tomica collection to use on Tomica World toy cities! (Preferably one with a rubber lift hill). Because they look so awesome!

This one below is an interactive tollbooth, entitled Tomica World Suisui ETC Drive. It features a couple of tollbooths that stop the rolling car at the booth, another couple of tollbooths with a fast pass way, the option to allow traffic to flow from your command by using the tollbooth buttons and lane switchers, and a lift hill.

The bonus for this is that the tollbooth set can be combined with another Tomica World set. One example from the first video above is the Tomica World Highway Busy Drive, a highway extension to match the tollbooth scheme placed. Individually it would look like this.

And it can be connected with another toy city set again!

That is the Tomica World Mountain Drive set. It's a touge set with a bridge and a tunnel included. Although I don't know whether the tollbooth can be included to make a threesome combo, I would really like to combine both if I could.

Question for this is, as a man who recently entered adulthood, could I really spend some money on a children's toy city just to give my Tomica cars a new home? While I don't have the place to store a full set in my house, my family is planning to build and move into a brand new house in the future, which should have recreatioal space for some toys for me to place.

Despite the fact that we should all be saving money at any age, this is about the only time you will have the freedom to spend money on something like this.

I also have a set of Left-Hand-Drive cardboard road pieces from Tomica, as well as a really old circular set with a battery-powered train, battery-powered Honda CR-V, plastic trees, and plastic guardrails.
