Series and package details
The 2013 SEMA show release was packaged in a cube. F05 is its base code, not a retail toy number. Keep the cube and its condition separate from loose-car condition.
For a carded example, inspect the cube for intact panels and clear display surfaces; for a loose car, compare paint and tampo condition directly.
