My best friend came back from a trip to Hong Kong and surprised me with this incredible Tomica F40. It’s a valuable limited production, and originally Japan-exclusive, model that he somehow found for me in the back room of a weird collectables store.

I staged a few photos on an ECG trace I had lying around. I think they turned out pretty cool.

The detail is amazing for a tiny 1/64 model.

Engine complete with air boxes and exhaust.

If you hear someone trying to steal it in the middle of the night, tell Doug to go away.

that’s a nicely detailed model for its size.

I’m not a cardiologist but that EKG doesn’t look quite normal.

And a very nice one at that.

It’s not. I get preventricular contractions but they’re harmless, hopefully.

Y eah, PVC’s are harmless. But the ST segment looks weird which has nothing to do with PVC’s. T hat hits the limit of my EKG knowledge. I assume normal variant or something otherwise your doc would have let you know.

Not sure. We covered EKG briefly at uni and I remember nothing. The sheet reports  a probable normal early repolarisation pattern.

Not a huge fan of 1/64. I have a 1/18 BBR F40 myself that is pretty sweet. Great car for any collection
