It's been a long long time since I've posted on this forum, probably 15 years.  My son was born almost 16 years ago,  and I  gave him this car, not long after being born.  He used it in the tub and on the tracks.  

I was into collecting mainlines and special editions back then (late 90s to early 2000's), and I have many variations of that time.  During the acceleracers and I35 series, I tried to collect them all, but as you know releases of these were not scheduled well.  I did end up with most of them and their variations.

This is one of 4 of the nitrium variations I have.  This one is the earliest on the shelves, co-mold 5s with the metallic silver crackle paint, but the rarest of all my acceleracers  is when the silver crackle paint and co-mold 5's transitioned to the grey paint, which they all would have later.  Another rare one is the silver crackle paint with the 6 spokes.  So, if you ever followed acceleracers, there are some pretty rare variations, especially the nitrium.  I really enjoyed collecting these at the time.  I opened a lot of cars because I was collecting the cards as well.  I hope you find the pics useful

There is also a CM5 varation on RD-06 and Iridium, they are much more common then cm5 nitrium, nice to see so many!

 

Yes Sir, I have those too.  I have about 60 in package and about 40 fresh unplayed with releases.  Check out the rd06 sticker and the error rd10 card with cm5 rd061489550199_Screenshot_20200216-001738_VideoPlayer.jpg.4735ca465096936251c7e06745aa3f40.jpg

on a side note, why did all our posts disappear when they changed up the forum?   Before it used to tell join date with post count.  Looks like I lost it all ?

place your cursor over your screen name. It shows you joined in 2002. Posts get lost in moves. I should be over 60,000

we both joined in 2002.  I'm sure our paths have crossed before.  If my brain wasn't going to crap I might remember.

thanks again!
