On March 23, 2021 we lost one of the guiding lights of the Hot Wheels design team. Ryu Asada was infectiously positive, genuinely kind, and lit up every room he entered. His creations for Hot Wheels collectors are some of the finest we’ve ever cast, and he inspires us to this very day.
His bright and loving soul was represented in his beloved bright yellow Honda S2000 that he drove almost every day. In his honor, we created a version in 1:64 scale for fans of Ryu Asada and Hot Wheels.
Through this car and the specially designed package, Ryu Asada’s memory will live forever.

BEHIND THE DESIGN
Since joining Mattel in 2004, Ryu Asada was a driving force behind many of our favorite cars. Known for his attention to detail and wry smile, Ryu showed his heart and his talent in every design he created.

THE DETAILS
To celebrate Ryu and his legacy, we wanted to create an instant Hot Wheels classic that pays homage to his own Honda S2000. This piece features Spectraflame Yellow paint, smoke-tinted windows, detailed head and tail lamps, and a special license plate. There’s also a memorial illustration that perfectly depicts our dear friend and colleague.
