Hey now! Thank you for tuning in to Race Grooves and thanks again to Round 2 for
providing these for review. Here we have Racing Champions Mint and these are
going to be Racing Champions Mint the 2017 released 2 and I have two cases of
A and two cases of B Racing Champions it's another one of the brands that are
owned by or that are released underneath the Round 2 label. I didn't say that
right Round 2, they have several brands so Racing Champions Mint, it's just
another one of the brands that they release cars under and you're
definitely going to get a different flair for what these cars are.
I'm looking forward to these Johnny Lightning kind of has their own style Auto World
is another Round 2 brand and here we have Racing Champions Mint hold on
I'll make sure I close my knife sorry here we go and I accidentally said in the
Auto World unboxing video that I was looking for a gold model well Racing Champions Mint
is actually gold is there Gold Strike chase pieces so if we find one
that's gold that would be their chase piece here you have Racing Champions Mint
limited to one thousand two hundred and fifty six pieces diecast metal and
chassis authentic factory colors and here we have the 1960 Chevy Corvair hey
check out I wonder if you might have an opening trunk very cool how you like
those wheels that look pretty good and Racing Champions Mint
it'll it's looking like they might have a separate piece for the for the bumper
and the headlights it looks like a separate piece nice color interior
1958 Ford Edsel again classic wheels
check out that grille pretty awesome a little hood I'll be picking one of the
sets to open I don't know if I'll open the a set of the be said 1986 Buick
Grand National there you go this is a this is a model that I'd like
to collect under the other brands it looks fantastic here as well it's got a
license plate brake light declarations
1968 Chevy Camaro SS develop fenders nice very nice-nice color if you get a
gold strike in this one that would be that would be a fantastic one to get
1951 Studebaker Commander and that's what's nice about Round 2, they they
get they released cars and nobody else releases it gives really something cool
for the collection whitewall tires chrome hubs mmm the trunk does not open
but it looks like the hood does open and in 1953 Ford F-150 nice! got matching
hubs with the truck there's your open bed has decorations in
the back opening hood and I had to head to with this color let's see
both our Ford close-close colors but they're not exactly the same let's go
ahead and open up the other A case now this way if we have a gold chase, and
we'll be able to compare the color, no, so I'll just go through this one quicker
because come on
there you go mMmmm that's the same color. You'll know gold, it'll definitely look different
and while while these do have authentic factory colors you're gonna
know the gold one it doesn't look like an authentic factory color but if you
like chase pieces you're gonna like it
now this I believe has the same vehicles but alternate colors so the Buick Grand
National was obviously black and the other one this one's white nice tires I
like the amount of rubber it has compared to the rim
nice blue 1950 Ford Edsel nice blue the other one was like a seafoam green
this one is a blue mmm says authentic factory colors I like that Johnny Lightning how it
says the colors but I don't I don't see any indication of the color name that's
a cool feature on that other line 1958 Ford Edsel and orange check out
that extra piece they put right there for the side view mirror, rear view mirrors
very nice it does not have opening doors those are just door lanes
nice nice you get one right there on top of the hood a hood ornament the
Chevy Camaro is in red with a white hardtop
actually I don't know if it'll be a hard top or a soft top or ragtop
red-stripe wheels the Studebaker is in a forest green very very dark green and
cream or ivory for the Ford f-150 my dump method was not working good today so we're just
gonna grab a handful I'm not sure if I'm going to open up the this is version B
the first one I opened up was version A then you have 2017 release 2
Oh! there's one more left in there
yeah it's the white Grand National all right I'll be right back
Here's the sample of a gold strike like I said you can obviously tell it's gold by the way
the bases are gold as well here you have the 1968 Chevy Camaro SS and obviously
it has an opening hood red stripe wheels two-tone you got black on top I don't
know what color to call it actually kind of has a greenish hue to it champagne hue
I'm not sure what that will color the call it. taillights, love those red
stripe wheels and of course we have details on the grill let's
check out that motor how's that for details they got the air
cleaner on top it's in Chrome then the engines painted orange then your hoses
are black it looks like very nice here's a close-up of the wheels and the
interior an actual steering wheel I don't know if you've been noticing in
some of the other brands the steering wheel is just like a stump it's not even
a steering wheel so it's nice again it's nice to get a real steering wheel on
your car I'd check it out you can see gauges as well and some decorations on
the hood window trim windshield wipers yeah it's it's close to the paint color
but it has the windshield wipers as well and the base there you go detailed metal base
and yes, rubber tires check out the front end wow those are some fantastic details!
here's the 1960 Chevy Corvair again different color for the roof
tail light decorations rear engine so has an opening trunk as if we can get
in there there you go pretty cool rubber tires white striped tires mm yeah his
white around the chrome rim here's a look at the base yeah it's upside down
and of course nice details in the front as well again nice details with the
interior and on this side a separate chrome rear view mirror very nice
Here's your 1987 Buick Grand National black must have been a typical color back in
the day because everybody makes it in black so this is a pretty much a
standard color there's your details in the rear nice
rubber tires the interior is kind of a grey silver
type color it looks like they have a two-tone seats as a matter of fact I'll
have to get it closed up in a second and opening hood BAD GN for the license
plate and there's your engine looks like it's a two colors I don't know if it's
separate pieces it's probably just painted two
different colors and let's get a close-up of the seat yeah it looks like
they detailed these seats on the inside give it two toned seats
there's your authentic steering wheel no side view mirror. No side-view mirrors on either side
rubber tires you can see the tread detailed base and since Johnny
Lightning or Round 2 own several brands it has a Johnny Lightning base so you
will see some carryover from the different brands into their different lines.
the 1953 Ford F-150 has an opening hood
as well MYF100 license plate two-piece it looks
like a two-piece engine looks like a separate piece going on top of your red
engine there's your decorations on the side
nice tires were it's just a little off but looks good
I am closed I am zoomed in I'm not sure if you would notice the slight
imperfections if if it's on display here is your engine compartment or passenger
compartment it's all black hard to see can't see
anything there you go there's your steering wheel
window trim and check it out Ford the opening bed very nice let's
check out the base this is a Racing Champions base. nice rubber tires metal body
hey got a spare tire that was a surprise metal body metal base let's go ahead and
give it a spin here and it added zoomed in all that time so maybe you didn't get
perspective on its appearance
sometimes with the lights it's hard to get the color because it just kind of
lights it up really bright there's one for the Ford truck fan
Here's a classic! 1951 Studebaker Commander what a nice piece of diecast sweet
You know, some of the mass-market dollar brands totally abandoning any classic cars in
their lineups and the classic cars they do have fantasy models yeah you know I
love classic cars well not gonna see them in some of the
dollar brands anymore it does look like we have an opening
hood sure enough opening hood and it has the air cleaner on top that looks like a
separate piece now for details and the front nice tires and check out the hood
remember, this one I had a hood ornament I I do believe that is a separate piece
matter of fact I might be able to peek yes you look right there that's a
separate piece hmm so when you look at these and you say oh uh it's too
expensive what are you getting you are getting multi-piece diecast
side view mirror that's a separate piece. there's another side view
mirror tampo'd door handles mmm that grille might be a separate
piece as well let's check out the base license plate
mm I don't see one and this is a Racing Champions tool there we go
Racing Champions tooling with rubber tires metal body metal base
the 1958 Ford Edsel is also a Racing Champions casting nice detailed metal
base there's your rubber tires 1958 Ford Edsel on the base I don't even know if
that's on the base every time once again separate pieces for the side view
mirrors your hood ornament you know it opens forward but the grille is too
close there's a detailed engine but the grille is too close I can't get this to
pop open oh well there's your front yeah there's your details on the front end
and again your side view mirrors your hood ornament nice tires window trim
it does have a plastic roof but nice white interior authentic steering wheel
I might be harping on that today but it's annoying me seeing those stumps in some
of the other brands 58 EDSL so for the license plate I wonder if you could pop
this off and make it a convertible oh I see holes that's probably where it pops
in even though I can't get the hood open I love this piece this is a nice-looking car
this is going to be my picks of the litter for today yeah nice piece of diecast
Johnny Lightning they have this other line a long time ago I don't know
if they've released it in there Johnny lightning brand yet I can't remember the
name but it was a bunch of classic cars I would like to for them to release that
again or will it be a sub set in the Johnny lightning Street Freaks I'm not
sure yep these are my two picks of the litter the Edsel and the Studebaker
these are my two favorites from the batch how about you? thank you for
watching and thanks again to Round 2 for sending them for review bye bye!
