About the original
The Kyosho Mini-Z is a 1:27-scale radio-controlled car platform introduced in 1999, built around a four-wheel-drive MR-03 chassis small enough to fit in a palm and capable of true scale drifting on polished indoor surfaces. Kyosho, founded in Tokyo in 1963, is one of Japan's oldest RC manufacturers and is known for professional-grade performance at compact scale. The FW2022 Supreme collab uses a custom-painted Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo R33 body — an officially licensed Nissan mold — fitted with the drift-tire variant of the Mini-Z chassis, a 2.4GHz pistol-grip transmitter, and a Supreme-branded box. It retailed at $348 and sold alongside a matching pit-mat accessory.
About Kyosho
Kyosho is a Japanese radio-controlled vehicle and die-cast model manufacturer founded in 1963 by Akira Kyosho in Tokyo. The company released the Dash 1 in 1970, one of the first commercial gas-powered RC cars, and went on to produce off-road buggies that dominated early IFMAR world championships. The Mini-Z platform, introduced in 1999, established the 1:27-scale palm-sized RC car category and remains popular for indoor racing. Kyosho also manufactures licensed 1:18 and 1:12 die-cast cars for Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche. Supreme has collaborated with Kyosho on branded RC vehicles.
