Physical Details
Green Spectraflame finish; Factory Fresh graphics. The GML22 code identifies the shared casting; it does not identify the color variation by itself. Check the body, printed details, windows, and wheels for wear when examining a loose example.
Scale and release: Hot Wheels id release; 1:64.
Packaging Details
The carded reference should show the 2020 Hot Wheels id package and GML22. The series placement is 2/4; use the code to distinguish the car from later GML22-mold issues.
Casting History
The COPO Camaro casting debuted in 2020. The green GML22 is the first entry in the six-release family documented here. The same casting number returns on later cars, so the casting identity alone does not identify a specific decoration.
Value Research
Compare the loose car by its green Spectraflame finish and tampo condition; compare carded examples only against the same 2020 ID release. The GML22 code and 2/4 series marking are useful checks.
Use completed sales for the same product code and package state. Card condition, blister clarity, loose-car tampo wear, and completeness can change comparisons; this guide does not state a price estimate.
Every Casting Variation
The GML22 casting appears in six documented releases. The 2021 blue cars are separate products: GRY44 is the Speed Graphics mainline and GTD68 is the ID chase. The 2022 red and yellow cars share a series slot but have separate product codes.

Collector FAQs
Is GML22 the same as every later COPO Camaro?
GML22 identifies the shared casting, not a single decoration. Match the year, series, color, and package marking to identify this release.
What does 2/4 mean?
It is the car’s place in the 2020 Factory Fresh series. GML22 is the product code.
Is it a mainline car?
The catalog identifies this as a Hot Wheels id release, not a standard numbered mainline.
