Very nice. They REALLY need to improve the rims. So far all models have been below par, hence the price point I guess.

That silver shadow line is too high. The wheels are awful too.

Yup, they definitely need to work on the wheels.

Don't know if it's worth changing the wheels by BBRs or just pass...

BBRs are still just metal filaments and not wire-laced like on CMCs

Right but this is not a CMC either. More like a sealed Hot Wheels Elite.

Another reason to pass on it, especially considering the wheels will cost as much as the model, if not more. Plus I think they're out of production now

I think this is only limited to 20 pcs per color and mostly distributed directly by the manufacturer. But yes the market is very slim for this type of classic resin models.
