This release and its companion
Choosing one for your collection
Look at the outer shoulders of the tires and check that each one sits squarely on its rim. A raised car is unforgiving of a crooked stance.
Ask for both sides so you can inspect the Baja Bruiser lettering and number panels. A clean card does not guarantee every printed detail is perfect.
Collector questions
Which detail identifies the Desert Rally version quickest?
The maroon-and-yellow Baja Bruiser decoration with 263 is the clearest starting point, followed by the off-road Real Riders and 1/5 card.
