i only got a three pack today but its interesting has 3 packs sometimes are.
(click images to expand)

the first car is a Scion Frs
this is why i bought it, its an error it hard to tell from the photos but the FR wheel is MC5 instead of PR5 like the rest of the wheels and i check the other frs in store and none had MC5.

Next is a Chevy Luv, i could not find this on the hot wheels wikia. i think it might be a coming 2017 main line being there is no version of the luv that has flames. and most muitipack exclusives are version of a mainline car with different colors.
Posted Image Posted Image

Last but not least a '64 Chevelle SS. i like this casting but it's sadly a victim of chrome interior :(

so here is what i got:

Liking the new additions! :thumbup:

Is the yellow '69 Vette from the 2016 garage series?

I also read your comment on wikia and not finding the multipack exclusive luv pick up there.

There are actually many listings not included in wikia - for many castings. I focus on Corvettes and for the most part I can usually find those, but lately from 2014 on I find less and less updates in wikia and especially the omission of recolors or items not in the main line series. They do depend on others to update the listings and I guess those people are no longer around or interested in keeping up anymore.

I have not signed up either to correct the many errors I run across, but then again if we dont fix or add to the database it will never be complete or current.

Many here and especially at other diecast sites dismiss wikia becasue of that, but I refer to them often still.

Hopefully a new price guide will be available soon and we will at least have that!
