M2 Challenger and Cuda in 1:24: R/T Hemi, T/A, 440 and VP Racing Choices

Blue-and-yellow M2 1971 Plymouth Hemi Cuda with VP Racing 50 Years graphics, item 40300-136A, 1:24

Choose Dodge Challenger or Plymouth Cuda first, then match the year, trim and decoration. An R/T Hemi, a T/A, an R/T 440 and a Hemi Cuda are different product identities—not interchangeable names for any striped muscle car.

The M2 releases below are finished 1:24 models. Their shared scale makes a coordinated display possible, while their listed finishes let you choose a sponsor-themed, colorful or weathered presentation.

1970 Challenger R/T Hemi: white VP Racing release

The VP Racing Challenger, item 40300-110B, pairs a white body with red-and-blue stripes and a red interior.

Choose it when you want the 1970 Challenger identity or the VP Racing theme. Opening hood, doors and trunk, positionable wheels and rubber tires are listed. The decoration identifies this collectible, not a claim about a specific race or driver.

1971 Challenger R/T 440: orange with yellow stripes

The orange R/T 440, item 40300-116B, offers yellow stripes and a white interior. It represents a different model year and trim designation from the white R/T Hemi.

Choose it for that exact identity or the warmer body-and-stripe combination. The listing also names opening hood, doors and trunk and positionable wheels. Similar operating features do not make the two releases mechanically or visually identical.

1970 Challenger T/A: the weathered alternative

The Challenger T/A, item 40300-138A, is listed as a new model with a “Rusted” presentation. It is intended for a buyer who wants that weathered look rather than a clean sponsor-themed finish.

The condition and finish are separate pieces of information: new collectible, rusted-style appearance. Do not choose it as a substitute for an unweathered T/A without comparing the actual photograph.

Its listed opening hood, doors and trunk provide display options, but the weathering does not establish natural corrosion or the history of a particular full-size car.

1971 Plymouth: 440 Barracuda or VP Racing Hemi Cuda

The pearl-white Barracuda 440, item 40300-96A, has red-and-blue stripes and a black roof. Choose it for the 440 designation and that body treatment.

The Hemi Cuda VP Racing 50 Years release, item 40300-136A, is blue with yellow sides. It can complement the white VP Racing Challenger as a separately purchased, sponsor-themed pair.

Those two Plymouths are not simply the same car in white or blue: their names identify different modeled specifications. Both listings name opening hood, doors and trunk, positionable wheels and rubber tires.

How much display space should you plan?

The three Challenger listings give approximate dimensions of 7.75 × 3 × 2.375 inches. The two Plymouth listings give approximately 7.5 × 3 × 2 inches. Treat these as catalog planning values, not independently measured fit tolerances.

Allow extra clearance for open panels and for any diagonal viewing angle. Diecast construction with plastic components is specified; a separate plastic showcase is not promised by these descriptions.

Choose a Challenger when that Dodge body is the priority, then select the R/T Hemi, R/T 440 or weathered T/A you actually want. Choose Plymouth when the Barracuda/Cuda identity is the attraction. The matching VP Racing theme provides one way to collect across both vehicles without confusing their names.
