Cool Mach 5 toy

Nice choice for review!
This whole line of diecast Speed Racer cars is pretty cool , and overlooked. Funny to see someone else picked up a wacky variant besides me. I think I got the whole line a while back at a couple flea markets.

The crazyiest one is bright neon pink, with tiger stripes. It's was a tie-in with the Kellogs Frosted Flakes, and a NASCAR driver sponsered by them who had the number "5" like Speed.
If you don't mind me sharing, this link may work: mach 5 terry labonte 1/18

The gimmicks are cool for a toy that's a lot less expensive than some other Mach 5's out there.
