There is indeed a McLaren Senna IRL that’s in the same deco, though the orange looks a little different on the Hot Wheels. Nice showcase, like the new parking lot.

As a child of the 80's, I was all about the Mongoose. McEwan ran at the first NHRA drag race I ever attended. I began racing BMX & rode a Mongoose. At 19, I got my first tattoo. Yup, the mongoose. It's my spirit animal.

Which one? I think Mattel's done the Snake and Mongoose drag chute set at least 3 times, the original version in 1970, a Hot Wheels 25th anniversary "Vintage" series set in 1993, and a Hot Wheels Classics set in the mid-2000s.

True, because Walmart and Target stores are dirty crooked scalper trash stores. And Mattel never makes enough of any of this stuff. They starve the market, to jack-up the resell prices. It's a scam. The store employees are literally supplementing their incomes off of this stuff. They don't get paid much, so I understand why they do it.

The most significant Snake and Mongoose sets were the two car 1/24, 1/64 in yellow and red. The detail of those cars is second to none in the drag racing diecast wold. The two car blue and white car sets are just as good, and highly sought by collectors of 60's and 70's drag racing diecast cars

The larger Castrol wordmark without the logo is accurate to the car that ran Daytona in 2019, don't know why they changed it other than to have a variation. Would've been cool to have the Motorcraft scheme they ran on the #66 that year as well as the Ken Miles tribute on the #69.
@SteveBrandon
Жыл бұрын
I think you're right, Mattel probably changed it slightly just so some collectors who already have the Team Transport version would buy the new variation, but, aesthetically, I prefer the version with the logo even if it's less accurate to the actual racecar than the version with just the wordmark. Personally, I wasn't that interested in the Team Transport since I prefer the older Ford GT40 anyway but having both the Castrol and the Gulf variations of the modern Ford GT Race in the same set does make it a little more enticing to me.

@@SteveBrandon This one is a Miles/Hulme 2nd place '66 tribute. The other tribute liveries for the GTs that year were also factory-backed successes of the past: the McLaren/Amon '66 winner, Foyt/Gurney '67 winner, and Hand/Muller/Bourdais 2016 winner. The Gulf car that won in '68 and '69 was a privateer, as Ford and Ferrari had both pulled factory support of prototypes after '67.

I never bothered with the Snake or Mongoose Team Transports because I had the premium versions from the NHRA Drag Racing subseries of Hot Wheels Racing 2012 but, comparing the 2012 NHRA releases right here with me to the 2-pack releases on the screen, you're correct, they are slightly different castings. The newer castings have the spoilers on the hood while the older castings have the spoilers on the roof and the older castings are also noticeably shorter behind the rear wheels (so the BELL tampo is on the C-pillar instead of behind the rear wheels). Maybe I will pick up the new 2-pack if I see it at Walmart Canada (where they're sold in Canada although I've only seen around two waves of them there). I think I'd be more interested in the McLaren set if one of them had been the McLaren F1 GTR.

Regarding the Mclaren duo - I have never understood why the premium 720s has fully blacked out glass when it does actually have an interior mould. It has a very distinctive interior that is just lost on the casting with the jet black glass section. Similarly, the Senna has exceptionally dark glass too. Ironically, the basic is what allows you to see inside.....go figure?

The shade of yellow on the Snake is different. The shade on the 2-pack version is a tad lighter, as is the blue stripe on top. All recent premium re-releases have inferior deco printing that look comparable to a cheap bubble-jet printer. This is noticeable, especially with the Fast & Furious line, if you zoom into the decos and compare each re-release with the original. Or maybe you did notice and kept this to yourself so as to not rock that smooth sailing boat with Mattel. : )
