# WORLD RUN — Tokyo brand and cartoon refresh

Created 2026-09-13 in Higgsfield 3D Jutsu project
`20e7f0ac-919d-4183-8983-637ca6c982a6`, committed revisions 3–4. Revision 4 moves the bus front axle behind its passenger door.
Operations: `worldrun-brands-build-20260913-1`, `worldrun-brands-bus-clearance-20260913`.

The new geometric models are a 7-Eleven convenience store, Lawson convenience
store, Isetan Shinjuku-inspired department store, Tokyo Tower, a Japanese kei
car, a Toei-inspired non-step bus and an urban delivery truck. Each surface,
window, frame and wheel is modeled geometry with clean cartoon material colors.
The architecture is a simplified artistic interpretation, not a measured replica.
Vehicle makes and registration numbers are fictional. The bus reproduces the
ivory/green scheme and yellow circles of the referenced Toei livery.

The actual brand artwork is embedded in the portable GLBs on correctly oriented
sign panels. Trademark artwork remains owned by the respective brand owners;
use in this private prototype does not establish permission for commercial
distribution, endorsement, sponsorship or affiliation. It is not CC0, and the
separate animation-library licenses do not cover these brand marks.
Reference building photographs are not redistributed in the game.

Parts are batched using vertex colors and shared materials. Vehicles face glTF
-Z, have grounded tires and four independent wheel pivots. Taxi paint is an
explicit material batch; windows, tires and lamps are not recolored. Store
fronts face +Z. Geometric exports contain their textures and require no external
image requests. New assets validate with zero glTF errors and warnings.
