This release and its companion
Choosing one for your collection
Inspect the wide engine sections and the nose corners. A top view is useful for finding scuffs across the broad upper surfaces.
For carded examples, check the blister around the outer edges of the ship. The wide body gives it a different fit from an ordinary car.
Collector questions
Why is The missing from the card name?
The 2022 package calls it Armadillo. The following year’s HKH09 package uses The Armadillo.
