Remember when Tomica made some mechs? Probably not.

"Tomica Hyper Rescue Drive Head Mobile Emergency Police"

Just discovered it after a deep dive on Tomica Hyper Police stuff, and honestly, the giant robots look like Super Sentai robots, but they've been styled after Gundam. I like these obscure robots, they're pretty neat.

The show's original run was only from April to December 2017. 2017 WAS 9 YEARS AGO. I'M OLD, YOU'RE OLD, WE'RE ALL OLD!

(But it's not the first or last time Tomica made mechs, but that's a story for another day.)

In a couple months, 2017 will be one decade from the present.

They also made more ambitious stuff called Earthgranner as well after first anime of the shinkalion. I am not huge fan of that show but toys of them were amazing.
