I recently returned from a two week trip to Japan, during which I spent much time visiting various Toyota facilities and hobby shops. I visited such places as Toyota Mega Web and the History Garage, Toyota Amlux, the Toyota Kaikan Museum, the Toyota Kuragaike Commemorative Hall and Kiichiro Toyoda's house, the Toyota Automobile Museum... I also visited Yotsuba Auto, the repair shop of a friend; Twin Ring Motegi and the Honda Collection Hall; and a number of hobby & collectable shops where I bought a few new diecast & minicars. Stop by my Blog to get to full story, more entries will be posted soon.

Oh d**n....... if I'd known you were going I woulda harassed you to get me one of those Stout diecast paper weight things that you already have one of. I been trying to find a website to order it from without any luck. Oh well maybe I have to go to Japan myself. ;D
Hope you had a great time there.

Oops! Sorry 'bout that... The only place I've ever seen them while in Japan is at the Toyota Automobile Museum in Nagoya. I don't recall seeing any Stout 'paper weights' this time, although I do recall some Land Cruiser ones.
You should think about taking a quick hop over to Japan ... I guarantee it'll be worth your time!
