HOT WHEELS DODGE B-100 SUPER VAN NO20 1/64

ambassador84 OVER 30 MILLION VIEWS. :-) posted a photo:

Some Hot Wheels castings are seemingly destined for almost eternally produced status. Their "70's Van" casting which has also been known as the "Super Van" has been around since the mid 1970's and still has the ability to be released fairly frequently well over 45 years later!
Thought to be loosely based on a Dodge B-100 it receives another 2023 recolour with a follow on word puzzle theme. Still a commendable "generic" with a lovely deep metallic blue paint colour and lots of chrome.
Part of this years Case F found at B&M Bargains.
Mint and boxed.
