these finally hit the shelves at my local Walmart. Just need the power wagon to complete the set.
 
Yes, I was these and picked up a couple for my grandsons. You missed this one though. Only had one, and the package was damaged, but toy was ok, so I go it.

The one is a 70 charger rt but it’s labeled as a challenger. 7/8 Pretty neat.
 
It's a cross between a 70 Challenger and a 73/74 Charger.

Look REAL close.

68-ish truck is coolest one of the bunch IMO.

The truck is a 70 (they all looked about the same) My brother had a 70 Power Wagon with a 383 with 4 speed (truck tranny) back in the day, so I was excited to see that truck.

It’s a error card and I think they have corrected it on the new releases. Here is a picture from hot wheels website.

I have an original 1981 dixie challenger still in the blister pack and I agree it is a cross between the 70 challenger and 72 charger. The base says 70 challenger tho which I think is funny. Here is a picture of the original 1981 release.
 
That casting was originally released in the 70's as "Roger Dodger".

...and the quarter window louvers are clearly 73/74.

Roger dodger has a blower engine sticking out the hood and used different tooling but is very similiar.
 
Matchbox has a jeep series as well.
Picked up the Wagoneer yesterday.

I picked up a Rodger Dodger 50th anniversary at the Kroger by my house, its the only 50th anniversary one they had. Its painted all black, looks cool.
 
That dixie car is going to piss some people off.
 
Hallmark made a rodger dodger Christmas tree ornament painted up like the first release in the 70s. I have 2 of them.
 
I remember the thrill i had when i dug thru the blister packs on the peg hooks in the mid 70s at Sears while shopping w mom looking specifically for the hot wheels Rodger Dodger, and finding it. The gold chrome finishes, and street freak painted stripes, along with blown hemi and zoomie pipes. Whats not to like. I used to take my chore money and hit the hot wheels aisle all the time back then. I still do it now lol.
 
Not mopar, but interesting hot wheels. I didnt know the spacex launched a tesla roadster to fly around the sun. I mean both companies are owned by Elon Musk. And the enterprise NCC-1701.

A few years back i bought a hot wheels mars rover too. I look for oddball stuff like that all the time.
