Each piece in the collection is a variant of one of the five motor racer characters in the play-to-earn Shiba Racing game. These include Ace (The Shiba Inu), Max (The Bull), Char (The Dragon), Milo (The White Tiger), and Bubbles (The Bear).

The digital art pieces will also feature different traits, including eyewear, headgear, background, fire suits, and much more.

When this launches, players will be able to try out different racer and supercar combinations. They will also be able to participate in Grand Prix tournaments that the metaverse game plans to organize to win exciting prizes.
