34: [BP Coil Trampio R32]

This web-limited release by ignition model represents the car driven by Hisashi Yokoshima and Tom Kristensen (yes, the nine-time Le Mans winner) who clinched victory in the final round of the 1993 JTC season at Fuji Speedway, which was also the last race held under Group A regulations.

The model comes with a 3D-scanned, 3D-printed, and silver-painted RB26DETT racing engine which is exclusive to this release. The other two R32 web-limited releases by ignition model tell different stories: IG2689 features a street-spec RB26, while IG2692 (representing the debut-winning 1990 Calsonic R32) includes a Mr. Hoshino figure instead. Cambered like the real race car, this model also includes an engraved metal stand for the engine, adding that museum-like touch to the presentation.

Just as the real car marked the end of the JTC Group A era, this release stands as the final resin R32 casting by ignition model to date, serving a fitting last hurrah for the Godzilla.

33: [Senna GTR]

The second quickest to sell out at the right after the Black Mamba HP Barchetta is this Gulf-liveried Senna GTR, based on the chassis number 28 of the 75 examples built. It pays homage to the Longtail F1 and and is finished in MSO-custom Iridium Blue. The original car was sold on for over $1.3M.

As usual, LCD Model nails the details, from the textured interior and vents, to the intricately complex front canards, all hollowed out just like the real thing. With .hobby now joining LCD Model and CM model in releasing the Senna GTR, we might just see over 3/4 of all Senna GTRs in existence replicated in the 1:64 world by next few years!

32: [3 di 3]

The Pagani HP Barchetta was created to celebrate the 60th birthday of the founder Horacio Pagani. In today's story we will cover the "3 di 3" that LCD model tried to replicate for the special edition this year.

Finished with a blend of matt and gloss Black Mamba carbon fibre with Giallo trims, the "3 of 3" is one of the two customer cars which was delivered first to , and was unveiled at The ICE St. Moritz 2022 where it cruised on the frozen lake (The 2 di 3, as of 2 months ago is still in the process of finalising the specification as mentioned by  on reddit). Unfortunately just months later it crashed during a Supercar Owners Circle event in Croatia. Despite the setback, two years later the 3/3 has returned after reaseembled with all damage parts replaced with new parts, and the damaged shell becoming a wall display at . The wheels were also refinished to have Giallo Pinstripe as well.

Just as before continues to demonstrate its greatest strength in its highly detailed 1:64 interior and carbon texture for its price, with perfect transition between the matt and gloss surface. They have also modified the casting slightly that the mirrors are now mounted (when compared to the first patch release) on the A-Pillar like the real car. The only drawback is that only 288 units were made for the Toycar Salon...

31: [Akuma no Z]

Following the R32 and AE86, this is the 3rd .works casting to turn 's digital artwork into real-life model piece. With Jon having visited the Auto Garage TBK shop and being well-acquainted with the story of the infamous Mid Night Club, one can see how the first two colours (the blue standard release and this red limited edition) connect naturally with the spirit of the Wangan highway.

With the hood louvres and an aggressively wide bodykit, this red S30 Z feels like a subtle nod to ABR Hosoki Engineering's S130 Z, which featured a twin-turbo L28 engine that clocked 265.37 km/h (164.89 mph) at the Yatabe Speed Ring. With a lower final drive ratio, this symbol of the Mid Night team could very well be pushing the 300 km/h barrier…

As for the blue fairlady, Jon's digital rendering was brought life as unveiled his full-scale build at SEMA just less than a year, giving the car a modernised look while the L-series engine was tuned to an exact 666 HP. With such craftsmanship already realized in blue, perhaps a red, 1:1 Z infused with Jon’s signature style is just around the corner? ;)

30: [Odin]

This Jesko Attack by .works is based on Chassis #7509 nicknamed "Odin", finished in exposed carbon fibre with 24k gold accents and gold flakes suspended in the clear coat, designed by . It was first delivered to Spain but the car now resides in Dubai.

Model Car Trivia - Every Koenigsegg Carbon Edition by Tarmac Works has been a special edition for Hong Kong's annual minicar events up to date:

- Agera RS #7127 "Naraya" for the 2019 Minicar Festival (2064 units made)
- Regera #7151 for the 2024 Toycar Salon (3552 units made), and
- This Jesko #7509 "Odin" for the 2025 Toycar Salon (2544 units made)

Over the past half decade, we can see how the team has continually refined its 1:64 carbon fibre pattern: From the full-body waterslide decal on the Agera, to the printed decal on the Regera, and now the extra-fine printed carbon decal on the Odin as .works celebrates its 10th anniversary, with surely more innovations to come.

29: [HKS Supra]

Known as the “HKS USA MKV Wide Body GR SUPRA Street Concept,” this car was HKS’s second A90 project and was unveiled alongside dozens of other modified GR Supras at SEMA 2019. The model hit shelves first in mid-July 2021 as Mini GT car #212 (Now available on the store, link in bio!).

So what was HKS’s first A90 build? That would be the “Toyota GR SUPRA Drift by HKS”, which tore up the tarmac at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2019 and later served as a demo car at the Tokyo Auto Salon 2020. But when it comes to Mini GT releases, it came second—as car #350, released in late August 2022.

28: [BMW Duo]

The 1973 BMW 3.0 CSL and the BMW 320 Group 5 are two iconic race cars that helped shape BMW’s motorsport legacy in the 1970s. The 3.0 CSL, nicknamed the “Batmobile” for its dramatic aero package, was a lightweight touring car that dominated the European Touring Car Championship between 1973 and 1979, and marked the beginning of the BMW Art Car.

Introduced in 1977, the BMW 320 Group 5 was a silhouette racer built on the E21 chassis. It was later turbocharged and served as a testbed for BMW’s future Formula 1 turbo powerplants. Though challenging to drive due to extreme turbo lag, its M12 engine powered "the flying brick" to multiple victories with its brute force, including the 1981 Guia Race of Macau.

15/08/2025

Following the success of the S13, the new (Zenki) S14 retained the FR layout that contributed to its predecessor's popularity. The S14 model was later given a sharper front-end design in 1996, making the earlier version with its more refined appearance a rare find.

The “n313a” release by Tomytec represents the turbocharged K’s variant (N313b is NA engine Q's), while the Type S comes with a standard rear spoiler. The distinct wheel designs that differ between the K’s and Q’s models have been faithfully recreated by Tomytec. Enjoy the refreshing beauty of the Silvia in its plain white and original, stock form. Grab yours in the shop (link in bio).

26: [Raw Hakotora]

Although not the first raw release by Inno64, this Hakotora marked the beginnning of the "1st shot Edition" series from Inno64. It debuted on 2nd April 2021, one year earlier than the more widely known Nismo 400R 1st Shot Prototype, which was release at the Malaysia Diecast Expo 2022 for MY64 members.

Limited to just 300 units, with a maximum of two units per purchase during the four-day event, this remains the rarest Hakotora release by Inno Models to date.

Only 1 available on webstore, link in bio. Don't miss out!

✨ We’re Live! ✨

After over a decade of collecting 1/64 model cars, I’m excited to officially soft-launch Ten’s Minicar Project — a webstore dedicated to cars with a story.

Here, every listing comes with more than just photos and titles — you’ll get the history and backstory behind each model, whether it’s a ultra-limited edition or a regular release.

I’ll be adding new pieces regularly (eventually aiming for one a day!), so whether you’re a die-hard collector or just someone who loves the stories behind the cars, there’s something here for you.

Got a dream model you’re hunting for? Let’s see if I can source it for you. Explore the store on my bio.

Exploring the past, one (small) car at a time.
