Among the biggest bangs for an enthusiast's buck are Mazda Miatas, the world's most mass-produced sports cars, though prices appear to be climbing.

But as she started working more with tarot cards and readings, it dawned on her that most mass-produced decks were illustrated with exclusively white characters.

"Super Mario Bros." went on to become one of the most iconic video games — as well as one of the most mass-produced — of all time.

In the '70s, Vanderbilt revolutionized the fashion industry with a collection of ready-to-wear pieces that included jeans, which were created for women at a time when most mass-produced denim was designed for men.

Not long after, she turned the industry upside down with a collection of ready-to-wear pieces, most notably with jeans specifically made for women (most mass-produced jeans at the time were designed for men).

Most mass-produced prints and paintings originate in Asia. These are essentially posters, sometimes referred to as "Hong Kong horrors," printed on rough paper, making the absence of brush strokes less apparent. There is a confusion between "mass-produced paintings" which are actually prints. These are being sold over the internet described as real oil paintings, taking advantage of the difficulty of spotting the scam behind the screen.

Club Prima Donna animated neon sign in Reno, Nevada, 1955. A highly opaque special black or gray glass paint can be used to "black out" parts of a tube, as between letters of a word. In most mass-produced low-priced signs today, clear glass tubing is coated with translucent paint to produce colored light. In this way, several different colors can be produced inexpensively from a single glowing tube.

However, the BIOS/UEFI options in most mass-produced consumer-grade computers are very limited and cannot be configured to truly handle OSes such as the original variants of DOS. The recent spread of the x86-64 architecture has further distanced current computers' and operating systems' internal similarity with the original IBM PC by introducing yet another processor mode with an instruction set modified for 64-bit addressing, but x86-64 capable processors also retain standard x86 compatibility.

They are popular, and quite light (in the more expensive models) but not as durable, readily repairable or maintainable as a conventional wheel. Stainless steel is the most common material for spokes, although most mass-produced budget wheels use galvanized steel spokes. Other materials such as titanium or aluminum are often used to reduce weight. Some wheels are designed around carbon fiber spokes, which are often completely integrated with the hub and rim and bladed in shape.

The Yakovlev Yak-9 was the most mass- produced Soviet fighter of all time. It remained in production from 1942 to 1948, with 16,769 built (14,579 during the war). Morane-Saulnier M.S.406 D-3801 During the invasion of Poland and the Battle of France, Luftwaffe fighters—primarily the Messerschmitt Bf 109—held air superiority, and the Luftwaffe played a major role in German victories in these campaigns. During the Battle of Britain, however, British Hurricanes and Spitfires proved roughly equal to Luftwaffe fighters.

Zocchi is a well-known figure at gaming conventions like Gen Con and Origins Game Fair, where he demonstrates the various inconsistenciesGame Science Part 1Game Science Part 2 in most mass-produced gaming dice. Zocchi has designed a few games himself, including Hardtack, and Battle Wagon Salvo. In 1987, Zocchi was inducted into the Academy of Adventure Gaming's Hall of Fame. He was honored as a "famous game designer" by being inducted into the Game Designers Hall of Fame and featured as the king of clubs in Flying Buffalo's 2009 Famous Game Designers Playing Card Deck.

The Ferrari Testarossa (Type F110) is a 12-cylinder mid-engine sports car manufactured by Ferrari, which went into production in 1984 as the successor to the Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer. The Pininfarina-designed car was originally produced from 1984 to 1991, with two model revisions following the end of Testarossa production called the 512 TR and F512 M, which were produced from 1992 to 1996. Including revised variations, almost 10,000 cars in total were produced, making it one of the most mass-produced Ferrari models. The Testarossa is a two-door coupé that premiered at the 1984 Paris Auto Show.

Large, high-current ESCs are used in electric cars, such as the Nissan Leaf, Tesla Roadster (2008), Model S, Model X, Model 3, and the Chevrolet Bolt. The energy draw is usually measured in kilowatts (the Nissan Leaf, for instance, uses an 160 kilowatt motor that produces up to 340 Nm torque ). Most mass-produced electric cars feature ESC's that capture energy when the car coasts or brakes, using the motor as a generator and slowing the car down. The captured energy is used to charge the batteries and thus extend the driving range of the car (this is known as regenerative braking).

It only had rear-wheel drive, but could take advantage of light weight, a very flat, smooth underbody,thanks to its VW Beetle-like platform chassis instead of a ladder- frame rear axle portal geared hubs, and a rear-mounted engine for mobility. Early American dune buggies were also based on the Volkswagen, and the Desert Storm-era Desert Patrol Vehicle evolved from the dune buggy configuration for combat use. The Volkswagen Schwimmwagen featured a bathtub-like unitary boat- body and propulsion screw. The Jeep was similarly adapted as the Ford GPA "Seep", but was never as successful as the Schwimmwagen, which became the most mass-produced amphibious car in history.

The 3-line rifle M1891 (, tryokhlineynaya vintovka obraztsa 1891 goda), colloquially known in the West as Mosin–Nagant and in Russia as Mosin's rifle (, ISO 9: ), is a five-shot, bolt-action, internal magazine–fed, military rifle developed from 1882 to 1891, and used by the armed forces of the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union and various other nations. It is one of the most mass-produced military bolt-action rifles in history with over 37 million units having been made since its inception in 1891, and, in spite of its age, it has been used in various conflicts around the world up to the present day. It is primarily found chambered for its original 7.62×54mmR cartridge.

D51, debuted in 1936, is the most mass-produced steam locomotive in Japan with 1,115 units. South Manchuria Railway The military expressed concern about the delays in troop movements that occurred during the 1904–05 Russo-Japanese War, and attributed such delays to the mix of private and government railway ownership. Whether reasonable or not, the attribution tipped the balance in favour of nationalization of the major railway companies, and in 1906 the Government proposed to nationalize 42 railway companies, though ultimately 17 companies were involved, including the "Big 5" companies (Nippon, San'yō, Kyushu and Kansai Railway companies and the Hokkaido Coal & Railway Co), and covering virtually all main intercity/regional routes. The major shareholders of the railway companies being nationalized welcomed the move, for differing reasons.

Chinese Norinco SKS with bayonet removed Chinese Norinco SKS custom with a ATI stock Dragunov style The SKS is popular on the civilian surplus market, especially in Canada and the United States. Because of their historic and novel nature, Soviet and European SKS carbines are classified by the BATF as "Curio & Relic" items under U.S. law, allowing them to be sold with features that might otherwise be restricted. Chinese manufactured rifles, even the rare early "Sino-Soviet" examples, are not so classified, though the "Sino-Soviet" rifles qualify for automatic Curio & Relic status due to being manufactured over 50 years ago. Because of the massive size of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, over 8 million Chinese SKS rifles were manufactured during their 20 years of use making the Chinese SKS one of the most mass-produced military rifles of all time although still far behind its successor the AK-47.

HMS Arachne was built in Hills Yard at Sandwich on 18 February 1809 but was ordered in 1806. Based on a 1796 design, the Cruiser Class was identical to the Snake and Favourite Class of sloops, apart from the masts and an extra section inserted amidships to give extra length. These types of ships were by far the most mass-produced ships in the age of sail. From 16 January 1813 to 15 January 1814 she was employed in the West Indies. In 1824 HMS Arachne was converted to a ship sloop. HMS Arachne in the same year saw extensive action in the 1824–26 Burmese War. The Arachne's arrival on 11 September 1824 Commander Chad immediately took naval command in the Rangoon River in present-day Myanmar. She saw action in the defence of Kemmendine in 1824, operations in the Irrawaddy in 1824–25, and major action at Nepadee Ridge in 1825–26.
