MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE
1996 Dodge Viper GTS — 2026 JJK50
The black JJK50 leaves the simple twin-stripe look behind. White striping, red checks and 27 markings turn the 2026 Viper into a much busier racing-themed model.

Variation Summary
Choosing one for your collection
Ask for both sides and a top view. With this many graphics, a single profile cannot show whether all of the printing is intact.
Check the gray wheel faces separately from the black tires. The wheel design is as useful as the number 27 when matching this release.
Collector questions
Does the black car have the same wheels as the 2025 colors?
No. JJK50 uses gray ten-spoke wheels; the blue and yellow 2025 releases use five-spokes.
