World Model Car Museum

World Model Car Museum is the first and only (so far) museum dedicated to exhibit 1/43 high precision model cars that I collected spending over 25 years.

World Model Car Museum is the first and only (so far) museum dedicated to exhibit 1/43 high precision model cars in the world. It is built as one of ACTLAND museums in Kochi, Japan and exhibits over 3,700 of 1/43 model cars that I collected during past 25 years. I got a new assignment to move back to GIKEN from ACTLAND but play the Executive Producer of the World Model Car Museum continuously. It

is really worth while visiting for all model car collectors and car enthusiasts worldwide. ACTLAND officially opened 15 th May 2015. I was again transferred to GIKEN Europe BV in London, UK at the end of June 2017 from GIKEN Tokyo Head Office.
