This release and its companion
Choosing one for your collection
Ask to see the lamps and roof lights working. If the car has been on display, inspect the clear case for scratches that can obscure an otherwise clean model.
Look at the fine circuit lettering and the small sponsor marks. Do not use a bright lit photo as the only paint-condition view.
Collector questions
What makes this the Ryu’s Rides edition?
