XLNT RE-Car Set scored at JCCS

I found this on the die-cast sale table at JCCS today, and just couldn't resist nabbing it:

A boxed set of RX-3, SA22C, FC3S, and FD RX-7 die casts, all done up in original Japanese-language packaging is cool enough... but this set comes with miniature reproductions of what look to be the original JDM Sales Brochures.







Now, if I could only read Japanese...

Sarah7 was looking at this one, and a set that didn't have the RX-3 or the booklets, but did have the RX-8. She opted for that one, I nabbed this one before it hit the table.

The real question is, will I be able to resist opening the shrink-wrap?
