Hot Wheels Alpine A525 — Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide

Alpine’s 2025 Formula 1 car appears in two Hot Wheels Premium singles released in 2026: Pierre Gasly’s #10 (JKD82, Formula One Collection Mix 2) and Franco Colapinto’s #43 (JKD94, Mix 4). The driver number and individual toy code distinguish the releases. A separate two-car Alpine package is cataloged as JMM96.

About the Alpine A525 casting

The Alpine A525 is the full-size Formula 1 car used by BWT Alpine during the 2025 season. Hot Wheels produced a 1:64 Premium model with an Alpine livery, Real Riders wheels and a display plinth. The two Hot Wheels entries depict different drivers in the same team car; they are release variants of one model family.

Set code: JMM96 identifies the two-car package. JKD82 and JKD94 identify the individual cars inside it.

How to identify each release

Read the driver number on the car, then match it to the toy code on the card or the base. #10 is Pierre Gasly, JKD82; #43 is Franco Colapinto, JKD94. The driver number and toy code provide the clearest distinction between the releases.

Driver Number Hot Wheels code Collection year Package code
Pierre Gasly #10 JKD82 2026 Formula One Collection JMM96 two-car pack
Franco Colapinto #43 JKD94 2026 Formula One Collection JMM96 two-car pack

Hot Wheels collector catalogs disagree on the chassis label: the Hot Wheels Newsletter Digital Car Catalog lists JKD82 and JKD94 as A524, while other release references identify them as A525. The full-size car represented is Alpine’s 2025-season A525; the Hot Wheels releases are from 2026. Catalogs disagree on the chassis label, so the toy codes JKD82 and JKD94, plus each driver number, are the clearest collectible identifiers.

JMM96 is cataloged separately as the two-car Alpine pack, which includes both driver versions. It is a package reference, not the code for either individual car.

Physical details collectors compare

Check the driver number, team graphics, wings, floor, side pods, halo, wheels and display plinth. The two codes represent different driver decorations of Alpine’s 2025 A525. Premium catalog records identify a 1:64 model with a metal body and chassis, Real Riders and a display piece.

Wheel labels vary between references: Hot Wheels Newsletter uses RRBF1, while HWC Garage lists RR-F1; some collector databases use RRPPZ. Keep JKD82 or JKD94 with the driver number as the reliable release identifier. Thailand is the recorded country of manufacture.

Packaging and condition

JKD82 and JKD94 are individual 2026 Formula One Collection releases in Mix 2 and Mix 4, respectively. JMM96 is a separate Alpine two-car pack that includes both drivers; it does not replace either individual car code.

When documenting a carded example, record the single-card or two-pack format, toy code, driver number, blister and card condition, and whether the display plinth is present. Do not identify a 2026 release from a card image bearing the earlier HRV11 package code.

Value Research

Match JKD82 or JKD94 with the driver number and inspect the Real Riders, body, wings and plinth. For a carded example, compare the same toy code and package condition. JMM96 is the two-car package code, not an individual car code.

Sources and collector references

The 2025 team car identity follows the season and livery shown on the product package. Mattel product information and collector catalogs support the 1:64 Premium format, driver numbers and toy codes. Catalog labels differ between A524 and A525, so this page records the discrepancy rather than hiding it. Product photos are stored in Muncle Mike’s Shopify Files.
