This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Inspect the clear blister around the wing and nose for pressure marks. On the car, compare both door graphics rather than relying on the illustrated vehicle above the blister.
If a seller calls a loose example the 2024 release, ask what establishes that date. Original packaging is stronger evidence than an identical-looking body.
Collector questions
Is JDJ27 a new casting?
No. It is a later Boulevard issue of this CLK-GTR, repeating the D2 Privat presentation.
