I picked this 76 Vega up at WM. It's the 1st one of this color scheme that I've seen in the AG line. I don't like the tacked on look of the blower and scoop on the hood, but it's still a pretty car in these colors, IMO.

Thanks for the tip and the pic! I haven't seen that color combo yet, and most definitely will have to get one or two. I love white with blue flames.

Here it is, a few months after the initial post, and I have yet to see or hear anything about anyone else finding this white/blue Vega on any board I frequent. Can this car be a fluke? Something that should not have been released? A chase car? I don't know.

Aqua and all, the white Vega with flames is in the 5 car box set from Motormax, We have 4 sets in my Walmart and they all have the white Vega. Yours may be a fluke because it is in a single blister pack.
And if you think the Vega looks wierd with flames, the next car down is a Green Chevette with Flames. :wacko:

I also have the gold with flames Vega, and the plain gold Chevette.

I am missing the "Yellow?" Vega with flames, it is here at my Wally's so I must pick it up soon.

That's very interesting. I'll have to keep my eyes open for the 5-pack, I've never seen them sold that way. Now others can enjoy this white/blue car too. :thumbup: It's a sharp looking car, IMO. Thanks for the info.

They are not much cheaper by the 5 pack, $2.92 for 1, $12.92 for 5, kinda buy four get one free. There are at least 2 different 5 packs, the one I picked up has a yellow GTO Judge, an orangey Caprice, the white Vega, a gold Chevette, and a 99 Firebird, white with red stripes. Its a nice set.

No, unfortunately no collector cards.

:(

At least I don't think so, I wasn't allowed to open mine, just a quick peek to see what was inside and away for Christmas

Speaking of color variations no one else has seen, I saw something on HT regarding a baby blue Mustang II. Anyone else come across one of them? I'm definitely interested in adding one to my collection.
