Back to the Camaro Casting Index
The ’80s Camaro appeared with the Tank Truck in the 1994 Color FX Wild Cruisers 2-pack, toy 11048. Its color-change body is dark purple when cool and shifts toward light pink in warm water; the Camaro wears blackwall wheels.
Casting Info
This is the temperature-reactive ’80s Camaro from the Wild Cruisers two-car pack. The 1994 pack number is 11048; the toy’s own casting date and the retail pack year refer to different things.
Its purple-to-pink color change and blackwall wheels distinguish this Color FX release from fixed-color Blown Camaro issues. Collector records also describe blue-tinted windows and a pink interior.
Variation Details
The Color FX Wild Cruisers Camaro changes from purple to white with temperature. Its artwork includes a skeleton on the doors, a skull on the hood and lightning graphics across the hood and roof; the roof names the driver “Bones.”

Physical Details
For a loose car, inspect the hood profile, roof opening and side exhausts, then record paint chips, tampo wear, wheel condition and base markings. These observations help identify which tooling is present and prevent wear or replacement parts from being mistaken for a factory variation.

The original 1994 Wild Cruisers Color FX two-pack contains the Tank Truck and ’80s Camaro and carries toy number 11048. The carded set confirms the retail assortment; the loose car’s color can shift with water temperature.
Condition & Value Research
Compare only examples with the same confirmed release and similar condition. Record loose-car wear separately from card or blister condition. This guide does not assign a price without a completed sale for a verified match.
