2022 ZAMAC ’06 Pontiac GTOWalmart exclusive · HCY37

Blue graphics and blue wheel faces stand out against the silver metal finish of this ZAMAC GTO. It is the most immediately different of the three 2022 releases, especially beside the red and black painted cars.

The blue details make this ZAMAC easy to spot

HCY37 is the Walmart-exclusive 2022 ZAMAC edition. The body carries black-and-blue racing decoration, including the number 06 and Pontiac branding. Chrome-blue wheels pick up the side graphics, giving the unpainted-metal look a strong splash of color.

The card and toy should be considered together when buying one packaged. A silver-painted GTO or a stripped custom can look superficially similar in a small photo. The original decoration, blue wheels, and correct edition are the details that matter here.

What to check before buying

Look at the exposed metal around the hood and roof for scratches or uneven patches, then check the printed graphics separately. A shiny body can still have rubbed-away lettering.

Inspect the blue wheel faces for wear, and ask for the underside of a loose car if the finish or wheels look altered. Avoid polishing a decorated example to make it brighter; preserving the original finish and printing matters more.

Collector questions

Is ZAMAC just another name for silver paint?

Here it identifies the metal-finish edition. Its blue graphics and wheel treatment distinguish it from the painted red and black 2022 cars.

What should I ask for when buying one loose?

Ask for both sides, the wheels, and the underside. The blue graphics and wheel finish help identify the edition; the extra views help reveal wear or modifications.
