2025 Hot Wheels 1971 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000 GT-R — JBY89 Metalflake orange

Official Identification

The 1971 in the casting name describes the full-size car; it is not the year this toy was released. Identify a loose example by the combined body finish, decoration, wheel design and base material. A packaging or assortment code on its own is insufficient.

Variation Summary

Orange paint, six-spoke wheels and the National Icons 4/5 card distinguish JBY89 from the black Fast & Furious releases and the two number-24 multipack colors.

Compare the complete casting family guide. Each gallery caption names its own release; related photographs are comparisons and do not depict the release named by this page.

Physical Details

Wheel abbreviations describe designs, not a measured wheel diameter. Base material and country come from the collector references; the hero is not an underside photograph. For a specimen, retain a clear base image and record any production/date code exactly as stamped. Such a code can differ between production batches and does not replace the release identity.

Packaging Details

The pictured package is a Hot Wheels Silver Series National Icons blister card. It displays 4/5 at the upper right and the 1971 Nissan Skyline H/T 2000 GT-R model name beneath the blister. The photograph shows one package example, not every regional card.

Record loose and packaged examples separately in your collection. Packaging damage affects the specimen’s condition; it does not change the catalog’s casting or variation identity. A replacement card or resealed blister should be disclosed rather than treated as factory-sealed evidence.

Condition and collection notes

Inspect the side bands and orange paint along the roof and wheel arches. For a packaged example, inspect the hanger, card corners and blister seal; record creases, cracks or lifting edges as packaging condition rather than changes to the variation.

When saving this release, record your own quantity, condition, packaging, acquisition price and storage location. Keep personal photographs and notes attached to your specimen. Two cars of the same release can have different conditions and purchase costs without creating two public catalog variations.

Market evidence

No supported exact-release value range is published in this rebuilt identification guide. Retained records have not been converted into a new valuation during this work. A price requires reviewed completed sales matched to this exact body, wheels, condition and packaging; asking prices, another color, another brand and a complete bundle are separate comparisons.
