[Carded] Errors and Cards. Collecting at its Core!

Got a neat little update on a few cars today. Got in touch with a new mix in the area so I grabbed some extras for the carded collection. Will post new loose additions shortly.


CARDS!

2013 Camaro Concept. That same one featured in SEMA.


Mattel re-releases this guy. The difference between this and the one back in 2007's release is that the window is now clear instead of blue and the wheels are MC5 rather than 5SP.


Wasn't planning on keeping an extra but it turned out I already had a loose one expected in the mail.


 Love this casting! This version wit the PR5 wheels is what's shown on SouthTexasDiecast's website, so I assume this is the regular run, except I only saw one of these and about 4 with black OH5 wheels so I'm unsure which one is the wheel variation of the original casting. This one will be kept carded until it's been confirmed it's a common.


 
Kind of wanted a custom out of it, but also wanted to leave one in my Boulevard collection. Will keep it carded until I confirmed a custom I want to pursue.


ERRORS!


 Front wheels got black PR5s.

 Side stripe tampo is missing. 

A more believable mistake as the front wheels are meant to be yellow 10SP.

 Some would argue it's not an error (even I won't!), but if it's not meant to be there, I'll still call it one granted it's just not as cool as having wrong parts installed.
