The 40th anniversary stamp set arrived from Japan!
Had to beg a friend from Japan to get it sent to a friend in the country, then mailed to her, and delivered to me

Smaller than a matchbox car.
The one sitting under the monitor in the top left of the photo is a 1:24 Revell kit I assembled and painted a couple years ago.

That is really cool.
I was recently over at my parents house and saw a Toyota Owners Manual on their shelf and was drawn to it. As soon as I opened the front cover, there was the 1984 Mazda RX7 Buyer's Brochure that my dad studied while he was shopping for the -SE that I now own and DD. What are the odds of that?
Very cool to have this kind of nostalgia around our cars.

That's how I found it.
Then I asked for a favor from a friend.
The little model car is really nice. Good detail, real nice finish. I will probably never take it out of its box though

That's an amazing set!! I remember seeing an article on the stamp set before it was released and wondering if there was a way to obtain it. Well, having connections in Japan sure does help. I think its a beautiful display piece! Thank you for sharing!
