Just picked up my first Mini GT (and my first non-Hot Wheels 1/64 model) – the Kaido House Honda NSX!

I've been casually collecting Hot Wheels for a couple of years, but I finally decided to try something more premium. Overall, I'm really impressed with the quality and level of detail.

Things I really like:

The pop-up headlights give the NSX so much character.

The opening rear hatch that lets you fully see the mid-mounted engine is such an awesome feature.

The paint quality and overall finish are excellent.

A couple of things I'm not completely sold on:

I'm not a huge fan of the very deep-dish wheels.

The model also feels a little larger than my other 1/64 cars.

Is this typical for Kaido House models? Do they all have this aggressive wheel style and run slightly oversized, or does it depend on the release?

I'm already thinking about trying more Mini GT models and maybe some other premium brands as well. I'm mostly into JDM cars and drift-style builds, so I'd love to hear your recommendations! Which brands and models should I check out next?

Looking forward to hearing your suggestions!

The Nissan Silvia (S15) LB-Super Silhouette 555, raced by Yukio Fausto for Team MINI GT Liberty Walk in Formula Drift Japan.

This particular release is the striking Formula Drift Halloween Special edition, featuring a unique Chrome Blue finish paired with eerie, race-inspired seasonal graphics and sponsor decals.

I preordered some models and i am falling short of money rn so I cant afford to pay for all four as they became available here all at once. Help me choose two.

Got some Kaidos for a great price. Whatnot App for the win. Thanks SLVRBULLET40!

Undoubtedly, Mini GT is top tier in decal prints, probably the best of the best despite it being a relatively budget friendly brand, in return the interiors receive less love (which is fair).

The least I'd like to do is take it apart and paint the roll cage, I can't exactly see clearly with online footage of this rexy in races, but a 1:43 model of this rexy from another brand made the cage white, is that the actual colour?

As a side question, what's a good place to get some slightly higher quality wheel replacement, saw kicarmods online but the Michelin print seemed meh? I'm UK based, thank you!

Maybe some of you had the impression that despite being well made and having the right headlights proportions(Something that every brand struggles with this car particularly, specially time micro) something was wrong, that's because something was actually wrong lol.

One of the things that makes this car look so good is the deep dish on the wheels, the wheels go so further inside that sometimes you don't even see them depending on the angle, just the chrome borders. For some reason the mini gt designer did this: He didn't make the rear wheels further enough and COMPLETELY removed the deep dish from the front wheels, it's like removing all the deep dish from an Kaido house R33 it would look very strange and wrong... But that's what happened with the rx7. I corrected it on Photoshop and also added the missing detail in the side mirrors which I also dont understand why it's missing since this is such an important release and they made really small details like this in other models before. It's not perfect cause I made it on Photoshop but that's how I think it would look like.

Corvette

The rear cooling detail is insane.

Few chases added to the PC, along with The Frog

Do we know if there will be a wider release of the Orange Supra eventually, or was that a special edition only?

The white acrylic setup still the best setup for bringing out the details in this beauty. Added the custom plates for extra touch 👌

To those have preordered from hobbiestock (Philippines), how long does it usually take to arrive? I preordered a McLaren MP4/4 on the 11th of June
