MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE

1957 Roadster Collector Guide

The little front wheels and oversized rear tires give this Roadster its exaggerated hot-rod stance. A long hood, open cabin and tall exposed engine leave plenty to look at even before the decoration changes. Flames, Halloween artwork and a circus performer all found room on this body.

What to look for

The two Tiki versions deserve a side-by-side look. The 2003 five-pack car has yellow-tinted glazing; the darker orange 20-pack version has a clear windshield and different decoration tones. The comparison photo labels both cars, with the 20-pack car below the earlier version.

Choosing one for your collection

Check the tiny front wheels and exposed engine first. The windshield edge and tall rear fins are other places where a loose car can pick up damage.

The red First Edition also has documented front-wheel variations. Compare the actual wheel faces instead of treating every red car as identical.

Collector questions

How can I separate the two Tiki releases?

Compare body shade, windshield tint and decoration. The comparison photo shows the 2003 five-pack car above the darker 20-pack version.
