MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE
Lotus Type 49 — 2024 HTD99
Number 4 and a dark driver are the easiest ways to pick out HTD99. The green-and-yellow colors echo the earlier number 5 car, but the cockpit and numbers make this a worthwhile side-by-side comparison.

What to look for
The 2024 card still reads ’67 Lotus Type 49, 188/250 and HW Race Day 8/10. Four-spoke wheels and the exposed engine preserve the same basic open-wheel layout.

This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Ask for a photo that includes the top of the nose and the cockpit. A distant side view can make both green releases look identical.
Inspect the narrow nose edge and the exposed engine finish. Those parts sit out in the open when the car is stored loose.
Collector questions
Is the dark driver just a shadow?
The darker driver treatment belongs to the number 4 HTD99 release. Use both details together to identify it.
