Kanjo V1 Appraisal

Mini GT Kaido House Honda Civic (EF) Kanjo V1 #139

This item is a 1/64 scale die-cast model car manufactured by Mini GT in collaboration with Kaido House. The specific model is a Honda Civic (EF) featuring the 'Kanjo V1' livery, designated as KHMG139. The item is shown in its original manufacturer packaging, which consists of a high-quality cardboard box featuring an illustration of the vehicle on the front and branding logos. The model itself represents a heavily modified Japanese racer in the Kanjozoku style, characterized by a white upper body, a vibrant yellow lower section, and bold red 'KAIDO' graphics. Notable features include mismatching wheel colors (gold front, silver rear) which is a hallmarks of tuner culture, a detailed roll cage visible through the windows, and realistic racing numbers with sponsors like 'Motul'. The craftsmanship is indicative of modern high-end die-cast collecting, utilizing metal components and rubber tires rather than plastic. The condition of the box appears to be 'new in box' with sharp corners and no visible shelf wear or fading. This series was released around 2023-2024 and represents a specific niche of collector-grade miniatures that prioritize authentic tuner aesthetics and high detail over playability.
