Once again mine is a little rougher in appearance, but the glass is good all around. Just slightly tinted. And I have the version that has no tampo on the hood, just that red and yellow tampo down each side.

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
The first one appears to be a ColorComp promo using the exact same color blank as the one we're considering for a Garage's promo! I'd love to see more pics!

And which toy show is the orange/yellow one from? I remember seeing them at Hershey shows in the late '90s and for some reason I'm thinking it was a Seattle show?

The Orange Yellow one is 1996 Toy Fair,...New York? I think I got that one from Neil Waldman.

Is it just me or does 1/350 look like sequential numbering? :P

It's just you. :)
Just a hunch here...but I'd bet a large sum of money that they all have "1/350" on the rear window, just to advertise the limited run.

Now that one I have! I think this may be the nicest the casting ever looked (outside of the Premiere range).
