Summer Toys released the 1992 Civic Hatchback in approximately 1:54 scale in various colors. While these castings don’t have a lot of detail, they come in many variations of color and tampo designs and are rather rare in mint or near mint condition.
The Civic EG body style was available from 1996 – 1999.
The ’96 Honda Civic was modeled in the Import Heat and Street Freaks series of 1/64 diecasts over 3 series in various colors and graphic designs.
The red and white “Import Heat” blister card packages.
A carved wooden model of the NSX in 1:14. Front and rear logos painted on. Obtained from an artisan in France. Currently, aware of only 2 in existence – the other in the hands of a collector in Japan.
This rare model is casted in pewter and hand detailed by craftsmen in Malaysia. Made of 97% pewter, this Honda NSX weighs about 2 kg. It comes on a wooden base with an identifying plaque “NSX 97% pewter” and a glass cover. It has no bottom and is essentially hollow, though the pewter is about 5-10mm thick throughout. The proportions are accurate and the detail is good considering what it’s made of.
Obtained from a Honda dealer in Malaysia in 1995, my understanding is that this was a custom commission for the introduction of the NSX in Malaysia. This may be the rarest NSX collectible in existence.
