This release and its companion

Back to the casting guide

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?

The red pace-car decoration, Suzuka graphics and HGK81 identity belong to the tribute release. The later blue JJY73 has a different appearance.
