They said they were going to send them to all 1800+ Hot Wheels purchasers. And they said the cars are better made with more detail than the packaged ones at the store.

Well, don't forget the hassle that our fellow enthusiasts in Canada have had with trying to get their information for the 2013 HotWheels and the 2017 FIFTY Special Editions. There is never a guarantee that Canada or other out of US sales will get the packages.

Sort of, when they came out with HyperBlue Metallic most were thinking they just renamed Kinetic. The Laguna Blue Corvette Color is dang close to KBM as well (and I know as have the Laguna Blue C7). Also, did you know you can order one of the Chevy Work Vans in Kinetic Blue Metallic...

My point is, never take it too serious when they say a color will be exclusive. Just ask the Synergy Green Special Edition owners that now have to explain to people that not all Synergies are Special Editions, heck even some Synergy owners think they have a special edition when they do not...

Correct. I failed to mention USA owners. It’s been a mess for non US territories to get info on their cars which I think is just wrong.

HBM looks close till you set them next to each other. Totally different. Yes the Laguna Blue is VERY close but the base paint code is different.

I knew that about the vans. As well as....You can also get kinetic blue in the Sonic and now on the 2019, but not 18 for some reason, Equinox.

What I was getting at, is typically they don’t reuse the color in the same product line. The whole synergy series wasn’t handled right in my opinion.

But yes it shouldn’t be taken too seriously. Just this felt like a slap in face since (aside from synergy) they hasn’t reused the color in the Camaro line.

That number seems low due to production hadn’t ended at that point. I could be wrong.

They said "the more than 1800 buyers of the Hot Wheels" but I don't remember an exact total. Probably because they were still in production.

Yeah, it was a blast having two V8 special edition Camaros blasting through traffic with tops down.
