This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Check the orange paint along the roof, doors and rear wing. A top-down view is useful for seeing the number 36 and the large lettering without glare from the canopy.
For a packaged car, compare the wheels and window color through the blister rather than relying only on the illustration. For a loose one, request a rear view that shows whether the wing sits straight.
Collector questions
Does HYW36 identify the yellow recolor?
HYW36 is the orange 2025 release. The yellow Safari Mode recolor uses JBB52, although both share 171/250 and series position 4/5.
