2018 Hot Wheels ’67 Camaro Convention Dinner Car — Spectraflame Blue — Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide
This is the blue Spectraflame entry in the 2018 convention dinner-car set, listed at 120 pieces. It should not be confused with other blue Camaro releases from the 2018 retail assortments.
No exact loose-car photograph has been verified for this release. The identification below follows the convention’s documented finish and quantity.
Casting Info
The convention dinner-car list records 120 Spectraflame Blue examples for 2018. That event quantity does not establish the exact wheel, tampo or base combination of every surviving car.
The Spectraflame Blue convention issue sits close in color to the aqua FTX86 Originals release, making packaging and release provenance particularly useful. The two belong to different 2018 release groups.
How to Identify This Release
Use the convention release context together with the blue Spectraflame finish. Separate it from the convention white issue and the retail FTX86 aqua Originals car by checking the finish hue, package or provenance, graphics and base.
Variation Summary
Spectraflame Blue. 32nd Annual Hot Wheels Collectors Convention dinner car.
FTX86 is the closest retail-color lookalike; event context and physical details separate the two.
Physical Details
Blue Spectraflame can be hard to distinguish from aqua in poor photographs. Use neutral lighting and inspect the actual finish; then document wheels, tampos and base separately. Do not identify the event issue from a blue color description alone.
Packaging Details
This color is part of the convention dinner-car release, with no standard toy number located. Event packaging or reliable provenance helps distinguish it from retail anniversary releases with similar blue-green finishes.
Value Research
Use the reported 120-piece quantity only as release context. For market comparison, require evidence for the convention car and match condition. Clear photos of the blue finish, tampo, wheels and base help prevent comparison with FTX86.
Collector Context
The blue dinner car is easy to mislabel from photographs. Color, package or provenance, graphics and base should be recorded together.
