2010 Hot Wheels ’10 Camaro SS R7499 (B47): Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide

Casting Info: the 2010 R7499 Camaro

The 2010 ’10 Camaro SS appears in HW Garage as toy number R7499, series position 6/10. This red-orange release has white and silver stripes over the hood and trunk, clear windows, a silver-grey interior, black plastic base and black OH5 wheels with white rims. It was made in Malaysia.

Several 2010 Camaro releases carry R7499, so the number alone does not identify this finish. Check the red-orange paint and white rally stripes against the grey Indianapolis 500 version and the electric-blue Walmart exclusive. On documented international-card cars, B47 is a base code; it is not the toy number. International checklist records place the car at 082/214.

The ’10 Camaro SS name refers to the Hot Wheels casting. The tooling debuted in 2009; this red-orange car is a 2010 release. Keeping the casting debut, release year, toy number, series position and card number separate makes identification much clearer.

Variation Summary

The red-orange car is identified by its white and silver rally stripes, clear windows, silver-grey interior and white-rim OH5 wheels. The grey Indianapolis 500 version and electric-blue version share the R7499 toy number but have different decoration and details. Later Camaro SS releases use different toy numbers and finishes.

Physical Details

The body is metalflake red-orange. White and silver rally stripes run over the hood and trunk; the side graphics are part of the HW Garage decoration. Clear glazing reveals the silver-grey interior. The wheels are black OH5s with white rims, and the base is black plastic.

Turn the car over to inspect the molded markings and country text. Catalog records associate base code B47 with international-card examples of the red R7499. The code helps document a production run, while the red finish, stripe pattern and wheel treatment identify the variation at a glance.

For a loose example, check the hood and trunk stripes for chips, the side tampo for rubs, and each white rim for paint loss. Compare the interior and wheel rims before grouping it with another R7499, since the grey Indianapolis 500 and blue versions use the same toy number.

Packaging Details

The secondary image shows the red R7499 on its US HW Garage blister card, numbered 074/240 and 6/10 in the series. International catalog records list the same red R7499 at 082/214. These are market-specific checklist numbers for the release, not different toy numbers.

The card photo is a US package reference, not a photograph of the international B47 card. On a carded example, match the red-orange car and white stripes in the blister, then read the collector number printed on the package. The base code B47 is checked on the underside of the car. Card wear, blister clarity and package format should be recorded separately from the loose casting’s condition.
