2023 · Monster Trucks: Freestyle Wreckers 6/11 · Desert sand
Desert-sand paint and bright red wheels give HLT08 its Jurassic Park look. The film logo sits on the doors, while red accents break up the pale body. This is a closed-roof, four-door Wrangler raised on enormous monster-truck tires. The 2023 Jurassic Park package shows the same enclosed Jeep body used by the ’18 Wrangler Unlimited Monster Trucks casting. It is a themed version of that truck, with black fender flares and running gear beneath the pale body. The pictured package includes an orange crushable car.

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
Check the door logos and the red decoration around the hood. The pale paint makes dark chips conspicuous, while reflections from the blister can hide the smaller printed details.
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
Is this the regular road-wheel Jurassic Park Jeep?
No. HLT08 is the 1:64 Monster Trucks release, with an enclosed four-door body and oversized tires. The ordinary road-wheel and open-top Jurassic Park Jeep toys are different models.
