2020 Hot Wheels GJF27 ’18 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited: Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide
2020 · Monster Trucks: HW Metro · Blue
Blue GJF27 gives the Wrangler a bright upper body, dark fender flares and striped racing decoration. Its wide black tires make the four-door Jeep look almost small above them. This is the HW Metro package, with an orange series strip at the right. The 2020 release is numbered 33/75 and HW Metro 7/10. It has dark-tinted windows and a chrome-colored plastic base. The blue Fan Favorites release from 2021 repeats this appearance, so the original card is useful when separating the two.

Casting History
Casting History
The earliest release in this guide is the 2020 HW Metro GJF27. The similar blue GWK01 followed in 2021 as Fan Favorites, so a loose truck’s paint alone cannot prove which package it came from. GTH75 is the unmistakable Twisted Tredz edition with triangular tread units. HCP84 adds orange 099 graphics and a printed mud treatment; HLT08 brings Jurassic Park decoration; GYY56 wears Falken’s two-tone livery and red-trimmed tires.
Physical Condition
Physical Condition
Ask for a clear view of the front grille and the edges of the dark fender flares. Those details help the Jeep read properly on a shelf and can be hard to assess through a scuffed blister.
Inspect the grille, body edges, suspension and each tire or tread assembly. Record package condition separately from the truck, including blister clarity, card wear and any missing or loose contents.
Collector FAQs
Collector Questions
Can the blue paint alone identify GJF27?
No. The later GWK01 Fan Favorites release repeats the blue truck’s look. The HW Metro card and 33/75 number identify the pictured 2020 release.
