Casting History
Casting History
Ryu Asada's modified CR-X entered The Hot Ones in 2012. Its rear engine conversion and roof intake distinguish it from the more stock second-generation ’88 CR-X tooling. The 2016 mainline revision incorporated the lower cladding into the body and changed the headlamp construction; premium and themed editions require separate tooling checks.

Collector FAQs
Which details separate one release from another?
Compare the casting name with the year, toy number, finish, graphics, wheels and package markings shown for that version.

What should I inspect on a loose example?
Check the paint, printed graphics, wheel faces and base for wear or damage. Those details help compare condition between examples.
What does the carded photograph show?
It documents the package design and the car as sold. Loose-car photos are shown separately when an exact view is available.
