2012 Hot Wheels ’10 Camaro SS V5703: Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide

Casting Info: the 2012 V5703 release

V5703 identifies the satin-blue police version of Hot Wheels’ ’10 Camaro SS. It was issued in the 2012 mainline as number 131/247 and appears as 1/10 in HW City Works. V5703 is the toy number for this release; 131/247 is its place in the year’s mainline, and 1/10 is its position in the themed series.

The blue car was a Kmart exclusive. It shares the mainline number and series position with the standard white V5434, so those numbers alone do not distinguish the two. Look at the body color and police graphics, then confirm the toy number on the package when it is available.

How V5703 differs from the white V5434

Both cars are HW City Works 1/10 and 131/247. The blue V5703’s package identifies it as the Kmart exclusive; on a loose car, use the satin-blue finish, red glass and exact decoration as a group of clues. See the V5434 guide.

Physical Details

The V5703 body is satin blue. Red and white stripes cross the hood and run along the sides, where the HWPD badge and police wording identify the highway-patrol theme. The rear carries matching police decoration. The satin finish is less glossy than the standard white V5434 and should be visible across the roof, doors and quarter panels.

This police version adds a roof lightbar and a front pushbar to the ’10 Camaro SS body. It has red-tinted windows and black MC5 five-spoke wheels with red rims. The grille, hood stripes, side badge, rear markings and equipment are useful together; a single replacement wheel or accessory is not enough to identify the release.

Collector checklists record both black and gray base examples for V5703, while another release catalog describes the base as gray plastic. Treat base shade as a production variation, not the deciding clue between V5703 and a different color release. Collector references also list interior variations, so compare the body decoration, glazing and wheels before relying on interior color alone.

Packaging Details

The matching card identifies the car as HW City Works ’12, number 1/10 in that series and 131/247 in the 2012 mainline. The V5703 item code and Kmart-exclusive description distinguish this blue car from the white V5434, even though the two share the series and mainline numbers.

The card photograph is shown as a secondary reference. For a packaged example, check that the blue police car inside the blister matches the card and that the blister has not been opened or replaced. For a loose car, record the condition of the red windows, lightbar, pushbar, wheel rims and tampo before comparing it with another example.
