Casting Info
GHD59 is the brown-toned ’67 Camaro in the 2020 HW Flames series. Yellow and orange stripes sweep from the hood into side flames, giving the 231/250 car a continuous graphic layout rather than a separate door logo.
Brown and copper descriptions both appear in collector records for GHD59. The Hot Wheels Collector Newsletter catalog uses brown; other listings call the finish metalflake copper. Record the visible shade alongside the item code without treating the color wording as a separate version.
How to Identify This Release
Confirm GHD59 and 231/250 on the card, then check HW Flames 4/10. The body is cataloged as metalflake brown; photographs can make it look copper. Look for yellow and orange hood stripes that continue into flames along the sides, plus the black interior and smoke-tinted windows.

Physical Details
The GHD59 is a 2017-retool-era casting with a fixed hood and plastic mainline base. The metalflake brown/copper body, orange-and-yellow flame layout, black interior and smoke windows identify the release. Wheel descriptions conflict across collector databases, so verify the wheel design on the car rather than relying on a single wheel-code listing.
Packaging Details

Value Research
Compare GHD59 examples with the same color and series code. Inspect the copper-brown finish under neutral light, especially the hood and roof, then check the flame edges, windows, wheels and base. Do not compare against GHG56 without accounting for its Kroger-exclusive black finish.
