This has been a pet project of mine for a while now and, with all the talk about models lately, I'm finally motivated to get it posted. This will be a thread to showcase any and all CRX related collectibles. Anything from model kits and die cast, to print media (including oem brochures and magazine articles).
Where I can, I'll include model numbers and release dates. If there is any information like that that I haven't included, and you know the info, please let me know so that I can update the thread.
For now, I just have the model kits ready to post. I'll continue to add stuff as I get photos edited and information squared away.
**EDIT**
It looks like the photo links aren't working right now. But you can still go to my CRX Collectibles website
