2015 Hotwheels 80s Firebird

Saw this new 80s Firebird at Walmart the other day. I'm not really a fan of the graphics but cool to see a 1982-1984 diecast nowadays.

Man, I was stoked when the came out with the IROCs, it'd be pretty awesome to see an 82-84 camaro with the same wheel proportions, etc.

I just saw a 82-84 Hotwheels Camaro at Walmart. Didn't have the same kind of wheels as the Firebird above but still looked cool. I made a thread with a picture:

Re: 2015 Hotwheels 80s Firebird

The GF found me this, it's an "87 firebird" also by green light... Sorry about the dust.

I'm always looking for more. I want to find an exact match to my 87 T/A T-top.

I would like to find a model to build, then take a model with an LS1 to do a little engine swap, pull the bandit wheels from a 2nd gen to make it exactly the way my car will be... Just can't find a T/A that is anything but a GTA.
