Go Ahead, Make My (Mopar Mon)day!

Hot Wheels did it! They made my day, by making my car, in the SRT8 casting rather than the (also awesome) Drift casting, as a Treasure Hunt!

It’s nice that, even though there’s been two redesigns of the 1:1 Charger since the final model year (2010) of the first-gen modern LX-platform Charger, they are still releasing new versions for me to collect (it’s a conspiracy to get all my money, I tell ya).

Here are two 2016 releases that I recently acquired.

The aforementioned Treasure Hunt, in red with HWFD livery. It’s #5 of 10 of the 2016 HW Rescue set.

Whew, he had a backup to leave in its cocoon. That was a close one!

And the second one, the Drift version, a part of the 2016 Police Pursuit 5-pack. This is the better (and less-common) of the two Police Drift castings, the one with the cast rear wing as opposed to plastic. This one is in Metalflake Blue with HWPD Highway Patrol livery.
