MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE

2009 Corvette Stingray Concept Collector Guide

The Stingray Concept has a low canopy, pronounced front fenders and a sharp crease along each door. Plain debut colors show off that shape; later versions add whitewalls, racing stripes and the loud Stunt Team decoration.

A concept shape with very different finishes

The casting entered the 2010 New Models range in gray, yellow and pale metallic blue. Garage versions followed in 2011, alongside a red Faster Than Ever release with two wheel designs. Boulevard, Corvette 60th and International Mystery Models brought further changes to the stripes, glazing and wheels.

Reading the 2010 card numbers

The debut checklist uses two sets of numbers: New Models lists 019/240 and 19/44, while HW Premiere lists 021/214 and 21/52. A different card number does not, by itself, mean a different paint or wheel variation. Match the car first, then check the series name and both numbers on the actual card.

The carded examples below show the gray New Models car and pale-blue HW Premiere car. The yellow gallery reference is still loose, so its original package cannot be established from that photo. A card example illustrates that package; it does not prove where another loose car came from.

Each photo links to the release it shows.

Choosing one for your collection

For a red car, start with the stripes and wheels. White side accents point toward the Faster Than Ever pair; black stripes over the top point toward Boulevard. For black cars, compare the glazing and decoration before looking at the toy code.

The twelve pictures cover distinct editions and the two FTE wheel designs, not every reported variation. Three sparse 2010 records still need their identities resolved, and a reported rose-window Stunt Team version needs a separate photo.

Collector questions

Is this the same casting as the later production Corvette Stingray?

No. This guide covers the 2009 Stingray Concept casting. The low canopy and sculpted concept-car body are the starting point; a later production-model Stingray needs its own identification.
