Description[]
Mighty K is an unlicensed casting taking cues from kei trucks like the Suzuki Carry and Daihatsu Hijet. This was the last design Ryu Asada saw through to completion before his death.
This is the first new casting to feature a commemorative "Ryu's Rides" logo on the card to celebrate the life of Ryu Asada.
Hot Wheels packaging designer Matt Gabe is in the process of converting a Honda Acty into a replica of the Mighty K in honor of Ryu Asada.
