You may already know the @mattelbrickshop 876-piec You may already know the @mattelbrickshop 876-piece, 1:16 scale Acura NSX, but there’s a much smaller build coming. This new 1:64 scale version is the size of a traditional Hot Wheels car, making it one of the tiniest NSX kits around.

"Each model includes a metal base plate, functional metal axles with rolling wheels, rubber-like tires and custom pieces that capture the vehicle’s distinctive silhouette. Smooth resin bricks click together with ease, while step-by-step instructions make each build easy and fun to follow."

The first wave of the 1:64 Hot Wheels Racer Series includes the ’91 Acura NSX, ’99 Honda S2000, ’24 Camaro ZL1, ’18 Audi TT RS, Maserati MCPura and Hot Wheels Bone Shaker.

Starting at just $4.99, the Mattel Brick Shop Racer Series arrives January 2027, with more models planned by the end of next year

Who's picking one up? 🙋‍♂️
Sold for $251,033 USD at auction! The auction for Sold for $251,033 USD at auction!

The auction for Tony Stark's Acura NSX Roadster from Marvel’s 2012 film The Avengers closed on Saturday, fetching $251,033. Proceeds from the auction will go to a charity of the winning bidder’s choice.

While its custom-built body was inspired by the second-generation NSX Concept, the Roadster is actually built on the underpinnings of a 1991 first-generation Acura NSX.

Created specifically for The Avengers, the one-of-a-kind movie car has been preserved in its on-screen condition, complete with the distinctive “STARK 33” license plate. 

What do you think? Should Acura have put the NSX Roadster into production?
