35th Anniversay-Mach 5: Racer X Edition

Released by ERTL, this 1/18 scale Mach 5 comes in a normal yellow box.

The lines are the normal Mach 5, but with black fins and Speed Racer and Racer X pictures on white paint.

It has typical aspects of die cast Mach 5s:

Engine;

Retractable saw-blades;

Duel exhaust;

Bird Missile;

Opening doors;

Opening Truck;

Spring loaded periscope;

Detailed dash/steering-wheel

And manually retractable air jacks (FYI: which don’t remotely stay put and are annoying).

Overall it goes pretty cheap because the cartoon images really hurts the Mach 5 aesthetic…but if you see on the cheap like I did, grab one.
