For die-cast car collectors, digging through storage boxes to find one specific Hot Wheels model can quickly ruin the fun of the hobby. Fun-Tech-Lab is changing how collectors showcase their miniature fleets with Parksible, a fully automated, vertical smart garage designed specifically for 1:64 scale cars. By blending the nostalgic joy of childhood toy garages with modern robotics and smartphone connectivity, this desktop-sized display tower turns your static collection into a dynamic, high-tech centerpiece.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Name and Creator: Parksible: The World's First Smart Garage for Model Cars by Fun-Tech-Lab.
What It Is: Parksible is an automated, app-controlled vertical parking tower designed to display and store up to 14 die-cast model cars in 1:64 scale. It features a motorized elevator that moves vehicles into their designated spots with precision.
KEY FEATURES
Automated Vertical Parking: The garage features a motorized lift system inspired by real-world automated parking towers. You simply place a car on the platform, and the elevator smoothly transports it to a selected bay.
Smart App Control: Using the companion smartphone app, users can command the elevator, assign specific parking slots, and manage their collection remotely.
AI Recognition Camera: The upgraded Pro model features a built-in 360-degree camera that scans each vehicle as it enters. This automatically logs the car and generates a digital 3D model in your virtual garage app.
Climate Monitoring: Built-in temperature and humidity sensors continuously monitor the environment to protect rare or custom paint jobs from moisture and heat damage.
Premium Display Lighting: Each of the 14 parking slots is equipped with adjustable LED lighting, allowing you to perfectly illuminate your collection for display or content creation.
Safe and Accessible: The USB-C powered unit features power-loss protection to keep your models secure, as well as a removable rear panel for safe manual unloading if the power goes out.
REWARDS
Kickstarter Pricing: Backers can secure the Standard model at an early bird price of around $299, while the camera-equipped Pro version is available for approximately $359.
Options: Users can choose between the Standard and Pro versions, with additional add-ons available such as exclusive Fun-Tech-Lab 1:64 die-cast models and customized nameplates.
Delivery: The campaign has been a massive success, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars against its initial goal. Global shipping to backers is estimated to begin in July 2026.
CONCEPT
The core concept is Dynamic Display for Collectors. The creators believe that model cars should not just sit lifelessly on a shelf. By adding mechanical motion, digital cataloging, and atmospheric lighting, they aim to elevate the die-cast collecting experience, giving enthusiasts a high-tech way to interact with and showcase their favorite miniature vehicles.
INSPIRATION
The project draws heavy inspiration from the highly efficient automated parking towers found in cities like Tokyo. Building on the viral success of their previous miniature automotive gadgets, like the Windsible desktop wind tunnel, the Fun-Tech-Lab team wanted to create the ultimate organizational tool for collectors. They sought to upgrade the classic toy garages of the past into a piece of precision-engineered, adult-oriented desktop architecture.
