There's a premium plan with extra features for collectors who want advanced tools, but the core features are available to everyone for free.
The catalog mainly covers the Mini GT line by TrueScale Miniatures (TSM), which includes hundreds of 1:64 scale models. It also catalogs the Kaido House line (a Mini GT sub-line focused on JDM tuning), BBR Models, TopSpeed, and QubeCarz. The focus is on high-quality, accessible miniatures that are widely traded in the Brazilian market, ranging from classic Japanese cars to supercars and race vehicles.
No. The miniature catalog and market price data are publicly accessible without creating an account. Signing up is only required for personal features: marking miniatures in your collection or wishlist, logging prices paid, making your profile public, or interacting with the marketplace between collectors.
Mini GT is the main 1:64 scale diecast line from TrueScale Miniatures (TSM), a company founded by Glen and based in Hong Kong. The line stood out in the market by offering models with a finish quality far above the standard for 1:64 scale, with details previously only found in larger, more expensive scales. The Mini GT catalog covers a huge variety of cars: classic Japanese cars, European supercars, GT3 and LMP race cars, themed models from franchises like Fast & Furious and James Bond, plus collaborations with teams and brands from the automotive world.
Kaido House is a Mini GT sub-line created in partnership with the American JDM culture brand of the same name. Kaido House models stand out for their exaggerated visual style: widened body kits, oversized wheels, aggressive spoilers, and a 1980s-90s Japanese tuning aesthetic that blends real references with fictional elements. The line quickly became one of the most popular among collectors worldwide, with models based on iconic cars like the Datsun 510, Toyota Celica, and Nissan Fairlady Z. Every new Kaido House release tends to sell out quickly at Brazilian resellers.
Chase variants are special versions of a Mini GT model produced in much smaller quantities than the standard version — usually between 1% and 5% of total units made. They typically feature visual differences such as an alternate body color, special finish (chrome, matte, weathered), or exclusive details. Since they're rare and shipped mixed into stock with no external markings, finding a Chase comes down to luck when you open the box. This makes Chase variants the most valued pieces on the secondary market — it's common for a Chase to be worth three, five, or even ten times more than the regular version of the same model.
In Brazil, official Mini GT Brazil distribution is handled by MG Minis, the authorized TrueScale Miniatures distributor led by Murilo Giannetti, with a network of specialized resellers across the country. Prices can vary between stores depending on stock and demand for each model. E-commerce platforms like Shopee and Mercado Livre also have active sellers. For rarer or newly released models, group-buy communities on Instagram and WhatsApp are an alternative. RA/AP. Collection has a marketplace section where Brazilian collectors list pieces for sale directly among themselves.
The catalog is organized by brand and series number. Each model has its own page with an official photo, catalog number (e.g. MGT-1086), full name, scale, brand, release status, and manufacturer's suggested base price. You can filter by brand, status (released, pre-order, unreleased), line (Kaido House, 007, etc.), and search by model name or number. The view can be switched between a photo grid and a compact list.
The catalog is manually maintained by the RA/AP. Collection team based on official announcements from TrueScale Miniatures and partner manufacturers. New models are added regularly, especially after events like the Malaysia Diecast Expo (MDX) and Hobby Expo China, when manufacturers typically reveal upcoming releases. If you notice any outdated or incorrect information, you can report it via our support email.
Browse the catalog and click the add button on any model's card. You can mark an item as "Owned" (in your collection) or "Wanted" (in your wishlist). When marking as "Owned," you can also log the price you paid, the item's condition, and other personal details. All your additions are automatically saved to the cloud and appear under the "My Collection" tab.
Yes. In your profile settings, you can enable the "Public Profile" option, which generates a unique link to share with friends, followers, or other collectors. The public profile displays your collection's models with photos and general information. You choose whether to show or hide the prices you paid for each piece. The link can be shared directly or via a QR code generated by the platform.
When adding a miniature to your collection, you can log how much you paid for it (the "Cost" field). This data is personal and only visible to you unless you enable the option to show prices on your public profile. Values reported by the community are used anonymously to calculate each model's market average, which is visible to everyone on the catalog page.
The Wishlist is where you register the models you don't have yet but want to acquire. When you mark an item as "Wanted," it appears in your wishlist with the model's photo and details. You can share this list on your public profile so other collectors know what you're looking for — which makes trading and negotiating with other community members easier.
Each model's average price is calculated based on two types of data: the value members reported paying for the piece (personal cost) and the market price suggestions collectors submit directly through the platform. Each user contributes only one value per model. The system filters out suggestions that are too far from the current average to prevent distortion. The result is an index that reflects what Brazilian collectors actually pay — not just prices listed on marketplaces, which can include inflated values.
Yes. On each miniature's page, authenticated members can submit a market price suggestion based on real transactions they know about. The system accepts suggestions within a 15% margin of the current average, which keeps the data reliable. If the value you want to report falls outside that margin, there's a "report a different price" option that sends the data for review by our team.
In the top menu, click your photo or the user icon and go to "Profile" or "Settings." There you can change your display name, add a custom username for your public profile link, configure your privacy, manage your linked social networks, and adjust your email notification preferences.
The Ranking is a public list of collectors with the highest number of registered models, the highest total collection value, or other metrics. Only public profiles appear in the ranking. The ranking updates automatically as members add new models to their collection. To appear on the ranking, just enable your public profile in your account settings.
The catalog has filters for brand (Mini GT, Kaido House, BBR, etc.), model status (Released, Pre-order, Unreleased), themed line, and price range. You can also sort by series number, name, or release date. Text search works both by model name and catalog number — for example, searching "MGT-1086" or "Nissan GT-R" returns the matching models.
If you notice any incorrect information on a miniature (wrong photo, mismatched number, outdated price) or a technical issue on the site, send an email to contato@raapcollection.com.br describing the problem in as much detail as possible. Every correction reported by the community helps keep the catalog accurate for all collectors.
