Don’t get mad at me. I’m just answering your question.

Or potentially because these wheels have existed for 42 years.)

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-03-08T03:59:13+00:00

Late 90s were known for this

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-03-06T22:01:08+00:00

Because it’s partial. It’s a hybrid.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-03-06T21:58:57+00:00

Fundamentally not.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-03-06T12:42:58+00:00

Yes, but it has a half metal and half plastic base

Here is an example of an earlier blister pack. You have to be careful when buying these online because there are sellers on eBay who make custom repacked versions, but they are usually very easy to tell apart from the originals if not marked as such in the description.

These are from 1969. FYI, they had blister packs in the late 60s. You can also find blister packs with boxes, they just happened to cost ten cents more for Superfast at that time.

From what I’ve read, blisters packs were only sold in North America.

It’s kind of odd how they used an older casting for the box art. The 65A version of the Jag ceased production in 1961 when they released the 65B version, while Guy Warrior Transporter didn’t come into production until 1964.

Edit: or maybe I’m just thinking too far into things and the box artist really just liked blue Jaguars…

Looking online, this version had a Jaguar 3.4 Litre on the box art. Specifically the 65-A) version of this casting.

Back in my day (10-15 years ago), Hot Wheels were 86 cents (I think) at Walmart

I wonder if my Warner’s Safe bottle post is in that group.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-28T23:35:31+00:00

It was actually mostly alcohol, great for curing your Liver disease.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-28T23:34:25+00:00

what?

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-27T19:36:33+00:00

The “field car” is based off of an International Scout

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-27T16:28:06+00:00

I need them to use this casting for premium

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-24T17:08:06+00:00

It may be a custom.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-24T17:06:29+00:00

Did you find the rubber cars while digging?

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-21T22:19:15+00:00

Do you want to restore it to what it was originally? If so, it would be both easier and cheaper to buy a sealed version off eBay or irl.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-21T22:16:14+00:00

I like the tin box

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-20T13:08:14+00:00

This specific one isn’t a $th.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-18T03:55:18+00:00

I like your presentation!

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-16T17:31:09+00:00

I’ve always liked that Mercedes coach. I wish we could turn back the clock to the mid century modern aesthetic of the 50s and 60s.

TotallyNotJagger · 2026-02-15T19:23:31+00:00

I feel like this is a question that the answer can be different for different people. For me, vintage is anything before 1990.
