We are excited to announce that MINI GT has officially partnered with VeilSide Co., Ltd., the legendary Japanese tuning company, as their official model car partner! Since 1990, Mr. Hironao Yokomaku has been a frequent award winner at the Tokyo Auto Salon, with his bold yet detailed designs consistently captivating fans. The launch of the prize-winning Toyota Supra C-I (A80) in 1994, followed by its feature in the Fast & Furious franchise, solidified his iconic status in the JDM era.
Mr. Yokomaku's designs often begin as vivid visualizations in his mind, brought to life through hand sketches. To ensure every detail of VeilSide’s vehicles is captured, we will invest the next few months in 3D scanning, measuring, and photographing these legendary cars. This meticulous documentation will provide the foundation for developing our 1:64 scale models.
This collaboration will bring VeilSide’s legendary automotive designs to life like never before! Stay tuned for the first wave of MINI GT x VeilSide releases, expected to launch in early 2025, where precision and detail meet cutting-edge automotive art.
