2006 Hot Wheels J2836 Ultra Hots — Casting Identity Unresolved
J2836 appears in the 2006 Ultra Hots catalogs, but the record attached to this page does not identify a color or package. Collector catalogs also differ on whether the car is the ’67 Camaro or the ’67 Camaro Convertible. Those details should be checked on the individual car and original card before assigning a specific variation.
What can be identified from J2836?
The release code J2836 and the 2006 Ultra Hots series are the dependable starting points in this MM record. J2836 alone does not establish which catalog entry or color belongs to the car in hand.
Possible casting-family references
Compare the physical car with the separate MM guides for the ’67 Camaro and the ’67 Camaro Convertible. This record is not assigned to either family until the specific casting and release are confirmed.
Why the catalog identification remains open
The 2006 Ultra Hots checklist at Hot Wheels Collectors Newsletter lists J2836 as a yellow ’67 Camaro Convertible made in Thailand with RR5SP wheels. South Texas Diecast also records a yellow, flame-decorated convertible entry under that code.
Other collector catalogs list J2836 as an orange ’67 Camaro from Malaysia without the convertible designation. Because this MM record has no matching card or verified casting photograph, it cannot be safely assigned to the yellow Thailand release or the orange Malaysia listing.

Physical details to check
Use the casting itself to distinguish the closed ’67 Camaro body from the open-top convertible. Record the paint color, side graphics, wheel design and base country mark directly from the car. No interior, base material, windshield, hood or wheel specification is assigned here.
Packaging and release context
The catalog references place J2836 in the 2006 Ultra Hots series, but this MM record has no package image or verified card details. If the original card or multipack is available, record its series name and any printed toy number before linking the car to a specific catalog entry.
Value research
No price range is assigned to this unresolved record. First identify the exact casting, color and package; then compare completed sales for that same release and condition. Do not combine the yellow Thailand and orange Malaysia catalog entries when researching value.
Collector questions
Does J2836 identify a single color?
No. Collector catalogs list more than one J2836 description for 2006 Ultra Hots.
Is this page the yellow Camaro Convertible?
That is one documented catalog entry, but this MM record does not include the package or car evidence needed to confirm it.
Which MM guide should I use?
Compare the body with the ’67 Camaro and ’67 Camaro Convertible casting guides linked above, then use the exact release guide only after matching the finish and package.
