It's a new model and hard to find. Best IROC mold they've made. I could only find one on eBay.

Gabe and I talked about this when it showed up at his house, but the offset wheel arch sizes ruin it for me.
That and the gentlemen's rims. 
To be fair the old model had sidepipes, so Hotwheels, yeah. |

It's a heck of a lot better than the old mold.

I like how detailed the grid taillights and everything are. The IROC decal is in the right place on the doors, and it has a "5.0 Liter H.O." decal on the side, so it is an extra rare L69 5-speed '85 IROC. 
The front could use a little more definition though, but what do you expect for a HotWheels?
The interior is even incredibly accurate. Too bad I can't really get a good camera shot of it.
I need a remote shutter trigger for my camera.

That looks cool! I picked a couple at K-Mart a few weeks ago.

I remember seeing a thread on TGO about those. I'm pretty sure a guy that posts there had a hand in making sure those were as accurate as they are.

I was just reading through that thread a couple weeks ago. I think I'll head to the store and see if I can find one. Now if anyone ever made a 91-92 Z28 I'd be all over it. |
