2013 Hot Wheels ’10 Camaro SS X2044 ZAMAC: Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide

Casting Info: the 2013 X2044 ZAMAC Camaro

X2044 is the toy number for the ZAMAC ’10 Camaro SS in the 2013 HW Showroom: Then and Now segment. Its card identifies the car as number 226/250 and adds the ZAMAC badge; catalog listings identify this version as a Walmart exclusive. The body is left unpainted so the metal casting shows through beneath green and light-green stripes across the hood, roof, trunk and sides.

The loose car has smoke-tinted windows, a black interior, black plastic base and black OH5 wheels with gold rims. It was made in Malaysia. Those features distinguish X2044 from the black X1804, which shares the 226/250 number but has clear windows, a red interior, chrome-rim wheels and a different card design.

’10 Camaro SS is the casting name, 2013 is the release year, X2044 is the toy number and 226/250 is the mainline position. Hot Wheels introduced the casting in the 2009 New Models assortment.

Variation Summary

X2044 and X1804 share the 2013 226/250 checklist position. The finish and details tell them apart: X2044 has bare ZAMAC, green stripes, smoke windows, a black interior and gold-rim OH5s; X1804 is black with red-orange graphics, clear windows, a red interior and chrome-rim OH5s. The card’s ZAMAC badge also helps identify a sealed X2044.

Physical Details

The body has no color coat: its silvery ZAMAC finish is the exposed die-cast metal. Green and light-green stripes run over the hood, roof and trunk, with a matching treatment along the sides. Small differences in reflection can make the metal look warmer or darker in photographs, so use the stripe layout and card number along with the finish.

X2044 has smoke-tinted windows and a black interior. The base is black plastic, while the wheels are black OH5s with gold rims. The Malaysia mark appears on the base. These details are a useful cross-check against X1804, whose painted black body, clear windows, red interior and chrome rims are visibly different.

On a loose example, inspect the unpainted metal for scratches, oxidation or paint added later, then check that both gold rims are intact and the stripe edges remain crisp. The gold ring is part of the wheel finish; it is not a redline tire. X1804 shares the 226/250 number, so the card number alone is not enough to identify the ZAMAC car.

Packaging Details

The X2044 package is part of the 2013 HW Showroom: Then and Now segment. Its purple side strip carries the series name, while the lower corner shows 226/250. The card art depicts the Camaro’s unpainted body and green hood stripes, and a ZAMAC badge appears above the blister. The toy number is X2044; the 004 in the badge identifies its ZAMAC position.

For a sealed example, check the ZAMAC badge and 226/250 marking, then compare the car inside the blister with the green-striped bare-metal release. X1804 shares the 226/250 position but has black paint and a different interior and wheel treatment. Card corners, blister clarity and seal condition describe the package, not the loose casting.
