Collector FAQs

What does DKH23 identify?

It is the product code for the 2016 Black Panther Character Car single. The card also identifies it as number 27 in the Marvel Character Cars sequence.

Is DRB52 another color variation?

No. DRB52 identifies a two-pack presentation of the same black Black Panther car. Its package differs, but the car’s decoration matches DKH23.

What should I check before comparing sales?

Match the code and package first, then compare condition. Do not combine loose and packaged examples or substitute a different Black Panther body style.
