what is very frustrating is that there are some very unique displays which i would love to see in detail but all we get are zoom out pictures. no close ups, no video.... a damn cell phone can do a better job of event coverage than some of these sites. i can't rant to loud though, atleast we get these. it's not like these displays will ever leave jpn.

I bet it's a dnano body. At least I think because of the black post that hold the body on it's base that look like the one holding the Dnano autoscale.

arch my friend, that yellow Corvette is definitely a Dnano body. It maybe fuzzy, but I can for certain make out the word Dnano right after 1/43. Plus, the windows seem to tell me it's an RC car body as well as it is all tinted dark. If it was a die-cast, I'm sure the windows would be more clear than that, particularly the front windshield.
I have no doubt in my mind that's a Dnano body.

i agree with you guys on the c6-r.
btw, it must be some kind of glorious push for the dnano but we've got a list of new bodies that rivals the list of existing bodies! there are more new dnano bodies shown than there were mini-z 
fyi, just as mini-z autoscales become collectibles, i think it's safe to assume production levels for dnano are going to be similar and that runs will end, some for good. not sure which will be the dnano version of the mini-z original teile clk or focus wrc yet. with the first recently selling for over $600, there is value to these.

Better collect them while you can! 
I wonder what "limited editions" we'll see in the Dnano range. Example, the black Murcielago in the Z-series.
I'm still hoping for some movie cars to be released in Dnano scale.
Speaking of Ford Focus, I wonder if that WRC will be released as a Dnano?
It probably takes Kyosho about five Dnano bodies to equal the plastic of one Mini-Z body!

I'd love to get my hands on that black/orange Porsche 911. Would look good with a set of gold wheels I bet.
What am I saying? I want my hands on all of them Nano's! LOL! I'm a nanoholic!

i would assume the a livery is only licensed for a limited number of pieces anyhow. if you see something you like, get it and if you want to hold on to it get 2 (one for play, one for the shelf)

I'll take that gray Gallardo. I'm not much of a Gallardo fan, but I do like the gray one and it'll go with the Countach and Murcielago quite nicely!

Those are actually 370z's, maybe we'll see them for the Mini-z too. Shorter wheelbase in real life then the 350z's, and wider. Well maybe not, it does say Z 2007.

Some pretty cool stuff there! I like their Mini Coopers and that Lotus Elise. Look's like they vacuum-formed some die-casts.
