← Back to the Camaro Casting Index
This is the regular Treasure Hunt version of the 2008 M6978 Camaro, number 12 of 12. The blue-gray body, black-and-white stripes and white flames are shared with the related Super Treasure Hunt, so wheel type is a key check: this version uses OH5 plastic wheels rather than Real Riders.

Physical and casting details
Metalflake blue-gray; black-and-white stripes; white flame graphics; OH5 wheels; black plastic base; clear windows; white interior; Malaysia.
Wheel type, base material, interior and window color are release-specific. Where an attribute is not listed above, this guide leaves it unassigned rather than carrying a specification over from another ’69 Camaro.
Packaging details
2008 Treasure Hunt series card, number 12/12. Compare the wheel type and package marking against the related Super Treasure Hunt.
When comparing a packaged example, check that the printed series and toy number agree with the car. A matching card helps confirm the release; it does not establish the condition of a loose example.
Collector notes
The strongest identification comes from the combination of finish, graphics, wheel style and the correct series or event markings. A shared casting name or toy number alone can lead to a mistaken match.
Frequently asked questions
How can I identify this release?
Match the metalflake blue-gray finish and decoration with the Treasure Hunt · 12/12 entry, then confirm its toy number and physical details.
Does the toy number identify the color by itself?
Not always. Some ’69 Camaro toy numbers appear on more than one documented finish. Use the variation web and compare the car’s decoration and package.
Are the convertible and COPO versions included?
No. This guide covers the standard ’69 Camaro casting. The convertible, COPO and Z28 (‘Tooned) have their own MM pages.
