Donut Media expands its automotive-related activities by making palm-sized car collectibles. Their launching product will be based on Acura’s Integra Type R.
Donut Media is a digital media brand focused on creating automotive content, and its channel has more than 5.3 million subscribers on YouTube. Now the brand wants to grow their donut even bigger with a new project called Stocky, involving collectible cars.

Stocky collectibles are palm-sized and made of standard PVC plastic. Their name perfectly describes their design, which makes them kind of funny to look at or showcase on your desk, shelf, or whatever. The first-ever “stockies” to be molded will be made in partnership with Japanese brand Acura and will be based on the legendary Integra Type R, one of the most iconic tuner cars of all time, in Donut's opinion. This racing edition focuses on maximizing performance while keeping weight to a minimum.

The Donut version of the Type R will come in “just the right” size, not too big to take up too much space, but big enough to make a statement.

The Stocky collectible will be available in multiple finishes, including Integra’s iconic Phoenix yellow, Championship White, and Nighthawk Black Pearl. There will also be an unpainted version that allows you to give whatever color you want to your Stocky, as well as a Donut Signature Edition, which will only be available in 100 units, all signed by the Donut team. Other cool versions of the Stocky collectible will be the “glow in the dark” one, a Translucent version, and a 14K gold plated car.

Donut started a Kickstarter campaign to fund their project, and it managed to reach its goal within the first eight hours. The Stocky project has raised almost $400,000, and the campaign is still on for another day.

You can pledge for your favorite Stocky and have it delivered by January 2022. A classic Stocky will cost you $25, but if you opt for the special editions, you have to dig deeper into your pocket. A “glow in the dark” version will set you back $50, the Translucent edition is $125, while the gold plated Stocky will have you pledge $10,000.
