Buying & Value Guide
Public identification does not expose the completed-sale evidence count or an exact-release price. Value Members can request supported values above when sufficient exact-item evidence exists.
Condition, packaging, exact release identity and delivered price should be matched before accepting a sale as comparable.
A missing value means the evidence gate has not been satisfied. It does not mean the collectible has no value.
'70 Plymouth Roadrunner (1998) — Frequently Asked Questions
Collector FAQs
What identifies an exact release?
Use multiple agreeing identifiers: casting, year, product number, wheels, body treatment, base markings and packaging where documented.
Does a matching casting name prove the release?
No. One casting can have many releases and variations across different years and assortments.
Why can a value be missing?
Exact-item completed-sale evidence may be insufficient. The guide does not substitute asking prices or unrelated releases.
Why can the reference image be missing?
The page only promotes a release image when a suitable Shopify-hosted reference is available. Missing media stays pending rather than being replaced with an unrelated image.

Variation Summary
White stripes and 440 lettering; Road Runner graphics.

- Base: Unpainted metal
- Country: Thailand
- Scale: Nominal 1:64
The body is die-cast metal. Base material is specific to this issue. Wheel codes describe collector-recognized designs; Real Riders rubber tires are distinct from standard plastic wheels. Window and interior shades require specimen confirmation where catalog descriptions disagree.
Packaging Details
2005 Classics Series 1; 9/25 collector packaging. No additional retailer exclusivity established.
No exact UPC, case suffix, regional card back, production date, individually numbered sticker or production quantity is assigned without exact issue evidence.
Casting History
Phil Riehlman's 1998 First Editions tooling depicts a modified 1970 Plymouth Road Runner with a hood scoop. The base tooling and basic release differ from the separate 2008 collector tooling. The casting later appeared in Highway 35 World Race and AcceleRacers as Taro Kitano's car. Metal-base collector issues are distinguished individually from plastic-base retail versions.
Research Notes
The exact color, wheel and base configuration is cross-checked in specialist collector references.
Specialist catalogs support these specifications; this is not presented as a complete manufacturer specification sheet. Source URLs and verification scope are retained privately. This review establishes release identification and does not certify a specimen, photograph, value or scarcity.
