Ready for the TTF Grand Prix? Lumicar drifts in with new editions as well as a newcomer AND an exclusive for Taipei Toy Festival 2018. Series 1 by T9G x Shoko Nakazawa x Konatsu Tunacan made their debut at Taipei Toy Festival and WonderFestival [Winter] back in 2017. Shanghai Toy Show 2018 saw the general release of the first series LUMISOFVI which incorporates soft vinyl with light-up functions. This year at BTS we saw the latest versions of LUMICAR from LUMISOFVI x Unbox Industries which features designs from Shoko, T9G, Konatsu, Hariken, Dimmo World and Kik Toyz. In the early morning news broke that artist Darylhochi’s “Bac Bac” joins the race! Hold up, that’s not all as LUMISOFVI has announced an exclusive T9G Lumicar just for TTF.
Unbox and Lumicar teamed up to produce a very special artist series for their ever-expanding die-cast range.
Sculpting and production duties were overseen by the Unbox team while Lumicar manufactured the sweet ride that utilizes their patented lighting technology.
“LUMICAR” is the first brand to utilise their own patented technology comprising of a power supply base and light emitter in a wireless system alloy toy car.
The car does not require any built-in batteries but utilizes an advanced light-emitting device as long as the LUMICAR is placed on the “specially equipped” MANERGY base.
Enjoy the new Lumisofvi line of Lumicars driven by artist-designed toys! Each Lumisofvi set includes 1 complete soft vinyl figure and a die-cast car which lights up when placed on the power base. Separate the body and attach it to the Lumicar and it’s ready to go!
Each Lumisofvi Set contains :
– 1 complete soft vinyl figure (which you can take apart and insert into Lumicar)
– 1 die-cast metal light up Lumicar with moving wheels!
– 1 power base with a custom graphic designed by the artist which lights up the Lumisofvi wirelessly!
