Also, if Asparadrink contains asparagus, I don't think I'd try it!
2025 Update -- I know what RE Amemiya is!
RE Amemiya diecast models are prized collectibles that celebrate the legacy of RE Amemiya, a renowned Japanese tuning company specializing in Mazda rotary-engine vehicles, particularly the RX-7. These 1:64 scale models, primarily produced by brands like Pop Race and Ignition Model, capture the aggressive styling and performance upgrades of RE Amemiya’s iconic creations. Here’s a look at what makes these models special.
The real-world RE Amemiya vehicles, like the Mazda RX-7 FC3S and FD3S, are legendary in JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) culture for their widebody kits, aerodynamic enhancements, and rotary engine tuning. Diecast models reflect this with meticulous details: think vibrant liveries like RE Amemiya Blue, Yellow, or Blue Chrome, complete with carbon-fiber hoods, GT-AD kits, and front lips. Models like the 1:64 Mazda RX-7 FC3S RE-Amemiya Blue (Pop Race PR640290) feature opening hoods revealing detailed engines, real rubber tires, and authentic decals, measuring about 2.75 inches long.
Available in colors like white, silver metallic, and luminous green, these models often come in limited editions, such as the “Japan Minicar a Gogo Exclusive” RX-7 in silver with a carbon hood. Prices range from $20-$30, though premium releases or resin models like the 1:18 RX-8 RE Amemiya can cost upwards of $289.99. Sold through retailers like Amazon, Target, and HobbySearch, they’re prized for their craftsmanship and connection to rotary car culture, making them must-haves for JDM enthusiasts.
Wow! This particular model was a great thrift store find for only $5.99!
